A local friend and fellow author here recently posted a bitter-sweet succinct blog which sounded like a plea for help. Accordingly, I was moved to respond.

Afterwards, I thought, "HELL, WE ALL GO THROUGH SUCH FEELINGS EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, SO MAYBE SOME OTHER 'POOR SOUL' ( pobrocito, en espanol ) MIGHT ALSO BENEFIT?"

IF THE SHOE FITS... WEAR IT!
IF THE FOE SHITS... WATCH YOUR STEP!

J-PAL ... TOM.

FOOTNOTE ADDED:

Look at the picture of such a beautiful, helpless ALBINO faun. Yes, some of us are DIFFERENT, but some words of Jack Canfield come to mind:

"NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY OR DO TO ME, I AM STILL A WORTHWHILE PERSON!" BELIEVE IT!

Obviously, sometimes life SUCKS! BEEN THERE! DONE THAT!

I would be so bold as to make a recommendation for you --- if you have not done so yet, buy & watch the movie "THE SECRET."

Then watch the special features for additional GOOD SHIT!

Take some notes as you watch it. ACT ON IT!

Then, as days and weeks go by, watch it AGAIN...and AGAIN...and AGAIN!

Each time, you will pick up on little tidbits that you missed the time before!

Sometimes we become our own worst enemies. Sometimes life has dished out too many LEMONS, and we tend to THINK that we are DROWNING IN A SEA OF LEMONADE!

That, my friend, is NEGATIVE THINKING. We cannot change the past, nor change other people, but we can change our own ATTITUDES and REACTIONS!

WE MUST LEARN TO LOVE OURSELVES FIRST! Once we have mastered that, the over-abundance will permeate OUTWARD, and begin to ATTRACT reciprocating love.

Here is just one little quote from the movie, and I don't know who the author was, but I really like it:

"God SLEEPS in the Rock... DREAMS in the Plant... STIRS in the Animal... but AWAKENS in MAN!"

Be the best YOU can be, and all else will improve!

That's my two cents worth... hope it helps in some small way. Tom.
