My Facebook is different, and now Blogger has updated it's interface. I was just starting to get comfortable! Leave it to technology to keep me on my toes.
I feel like somebody came into my bedroom and cleaned it, or even worse - re-organized my desk. I feel lost, and I know by the time I get around to actually getting comfortable with this - I'll have to learn something else, likely in July.
Oh, the humanity! Can't things just ever stay the same?
No, they can't because it's a cruel, cruel world.
One thing that hasn't changed is my sense of humor about, well - everything. I am convinced that if I just laugh at everything, it will all be okay. Sometimes it's all you've got. Some folks really shouldn't take life so seriously, because nobody makes it out alive anyway. Take a joke!
I come in contact with a lot of people that need to go on a serious diet, and I don't mean eating like a rabbit. I mean shed the intensity, tension, and attitude. Lighten up about everything. You'll feel better without all that dead weight.
It has recently occurred to me that people who take life so serious are what's wrong with society. They make a huge deal out of absolutely nothing, and in the meantime get other serious folks wound tighter than tops and that's when all hell breaks loose. I think if everybody just cooled their jets, looked at the big picture, and better yet - had a belly chuckle - the world's problems would likely seem smaller and more manageable.
Okay, maybe not - but I'd like to think so.
I know there is a time and a place for everything. I do have some couth, and more than most. I'm just pointing out that things don't seem so bad when you find humor in the situations in life that hit you like a Mack truck, or when somebody says something that may offend you (like this blog post). Instead of writing a letter to an editor, or commenting on Facebook without the facts, or rallying the neighborhood watch while looking like a hyper-sensitive idiot, try to laugh about it first.
Then tell me you don't feel just a little better.
If you don't? Then I'll help you draft a letter to the editor.
