So continues

So continues my whining rant at life. Gas prices are up. Politicians continue to act like politicians. The smart remain smart, yet I fear the ignorant remain ignorant. So much of life is perspective. It is so easy to feel sorry for yourself. Yet easier still, if you perchance to glance you can quickly find someone worse off than you.

I'm not saying If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I'm simply saying, for the most part, we are free creatures with the power to choose. often times, I suspect more than not, the bounds in our life which leave feeling burdened and chained down, are self imposed learned behaviors.

Let us not forget our friend the elephant, who is chained in place as a child, but merely restrained by a string as an adult. Learned.

Just a thought or two.
