Safety Nets

Adventures are things of choice. I choose them over misadventures because they are more fun this way. Armed with a little courage, a lot of faith, a teeny bit of bravado and an inclination to just act, or not act, depending upon the case, life can be what it is supposed to be in my world.

I cannot imagine the world some people and animals live in. Just thinking about them gives me night terrors. I do what I can about that and let the rest go. No reason to run around crying over things I cannot do when there are things I can do.

I have discovered that the biggest difference between adventures and mishaps are often the way I tell the story. Perceiving something as a challenge and learning experience is better than feeling persecuted.

Laughing. Laughing is the life jacket that keeps me from drowning in the swampy areas. There is no way to over estimate a good sense of humor and an ability to laugh at myself.

Eventually I believe we all end up at the same place and if I am a believer then it is a very good place, so I am never really alone even when I am lonely. I am connected to my Creator and my soul mates now and forever. That is a huge safety net.

I also need someone to hear about my adventures. That is where you come in.

Thank you.
