Cinnamon.......It's for cakes.!!!

Cinnamon is for my rice pudding and my yogurt.  Why would somebody want to swallow dry cinnamon is baffling.  Every generation is always looking for something new to make them stand out.  Let's bake a  cake and stop trying to snort it.
Do people really have plenty of time on their hands for them to be thinking what they can inhale for fun.  It seems that children are getting sillier by the second.  Cinnamon burns and would probably bring plenty of tears to the person inhaling it.
Everyday young people wake the have ideas that sometimes are silly and other times result in discoveries that make them rich.  Imagine fighting our differences with cakes and cookies.  Many more lives would be saved.  The people would be much heavier but they would be alive.

Cinnamon is a tree bark it is usually ground from sticks and put into cookies and cakes or ciders and teas.  It adds an aroma and taste that is very pleasant when consumed.  Cinnamon is also added to perfumes and shampoos.  I like cinnamon very much and use it daily in my cooking and it is in my body soap.   

I remember when I was a child and said anything inappropriate, my mother would threaten to wash my mouth out with soap.  There was no cinnamon soap back then if there was i would not mind the punishment.
Apparently when you inhale cinnamon you could end up in the hospital with internal burns and high blood pressure.
Cinnamon is for cake........................

If you can not afford the the maintenance do not buy it!!

People buy different things because the want to compete with the Jones' but do not realize that certain things maintenance and storage.   We live in a world with a consumer economy, (people see, they want they buy) .  What people do not realize when they buy something they should think about the extras.

• A car needs..............gas, water, oil, transmission fluid, air, radiator fluid, brake fluid, axle grease, battery, insurance. 
• A television needs........................a maintenance contract.
• A male mate needs..................food, water, bathroom, sex, bathroom, clothes, sports, booze, sleep.work.
• A female mate needs.............food, water, jewelry, bathroom with mirror, expensive food, sleep, mate to pay for all needs, sex upon appointment.
• A house needs service contract to include all repairs otherwise it will cost more than a mate.

The bottom line is that if you are not ready for all the extras do not make the move on anything because everything in life has a consequence.  

• You buy you have to pay and pay.
• You want the car you have to pay.
• You wan the swimsuit model, you really have to pay
• You want the television, you have to pay.

Anything or any one that brings you pleasure will cost you and you have to pay, so do not try to BIG SHOT if cannot pay.  Shortcuts will cost you more!!!

Light meals are for Dinner.

Have you ever awaken with drool on your face and sweat on your forehead?  Do you also remember having wacky dreams at the same time?  If your answer is yes.  The possibility is that you had a heavy meal the night before and you did not allow enough time to elapse before you went to bed.  When you eat a big meal the stomach needs blood to power its muscles to grind the stuff that is in it.  When the meal is large the stomach needs more blood.   As the blood is needed by the stomach it is directed away from other parts of the body.  The blood that is in the brain temporarily depletes, this low blood level in turn makes the brain see nightmares.
It is best to go to bed on a light stomach, this will avoid from you have a restless night. By going to bed light not only do you avoid nightmares but your heart will healthier and body will not have to struggle with digestion.  I am not telling you not to eat at night, just that your meals should not be large and very close to your bedtime.
The old adage of eating like:

•  a King for breakfast
• a Prince for lunch
• and a Pauper for dinner

is a very wise rule to follow. 

Sleep....

Sleep is essential for life.  I need b between six and eight hours of sleep everyday  to be able to function properly in my daily life.  Everybody varies in the amount they need.  There are days that you can go with almost no sleep and there are other times that you have more than enough sleep and you are still tired.  The human body needs balance and that includes with sleep as well.  Varying sleep could also effect weight loss or gain.  It also has an effect on sexual performance.
Many times people try to go without sleep for long periods of time and the consequences are brutal.  To go without the proper amounts of sleep could lead a number of sicknesses, heart disease, high blood pressure, weight gain and mental dysfunction.
Sometimes when a person has too much sleep the effects are detrimental as well.  If I happen to sleep more than eight hours straight, my head is aching and my back needs stretching.  I am as cranky as I would be when when I have had little or no sleep. As I grow older the amount of sleep I require is less than what my growing children need.
With the economy fluctuating the way it does, our job s require more of us.  This leads to sleep less to be able to fit all our other things in our routine.    Some people hardly ever sleep because the need to juggle all their tasks to maintain their lifestyle.  The more your needs grow the less you sleep.  In the end wanting less means sleeping more.

Jealousy......

Jealousy is a feeling of wanting what other people have, whether it be material things or relationships.   I am the proud father of three boys and have observed that they always complain that I favor one more than the other.  This is positively incorrect  all three boys are equal in my eyes.  Whatever I do for one, I do, or will do to all of them, the same.
Now when they grow upend they go on their own and start earning their own living  my sons have nothing to be jealous of each other for anything.
I remember when they were younger and I would by my boys children's meals at a fast food restaurant.  I would have to make sure that the toy that came with the meal was the same and this would avoid any undo arguments  among them.   "I want what he has" or his toy is better than mine".
Jealousy in society varies and should not be confused with ambition.  Wanting to be successful and prominent in your field of expertise is acceptable.  But saying that you want what the other person has because theirs is the best, is wrong and in many ways twisted.

Wanting to live a good life with whatever is earned in life is normal according to the standards of the society we live in.  To see a person having what you do not have taking what they have is Jealousy and is considered stealing.   If you see something that you like and want something similar, well through hard work you could by one, whatever it may be.  

Constantly wanting could be very draining both financially and mentally.  Financially, people are constantly shopping and have to pay for things.  To have money to pay people must have money or be independently wealthy.  It is mentally stressful  because people are always working to earn money to be able to pay for what they are buying and never giving themselves time to rest or enjoy what they have.  It is also mentally challenging because people are worried about the neighbor and what they have.

It is best to worry about yourself and enjoy what YOU have and do not worry about other people.  With this in mind you will have more time and money to live longer wit less stress.

Respect for my Space..............

With every new generation respect for one another goes out the window.  What makes one person more important than another?   Absolutely nothing.  We as human beings are all the same.  We all deserve the same courtesy for our space (where we live and work).  Everyday I see people invading other people's space and then claiming pity.  Everybody starts out in life the same way with nothing but the skin on their back.  As time passes and they grow-up, each person acquires a bigger spot in life but this does not entitle them to invade mine!
Where I work and live are mine and have been earned and with honest sweat and time.  When I pay for the right to be some place , it means that is mine as well and should not be trampled upon by others looking for a freebie.  I did not create society but have learned to go along with it.  If all the people living in this world learned to respect each others space life would be much calmer and there would be no reason for petty stress everyday.
I have learned, that in life everyone has the right to live and and should not be interfered with.  No one asked you to come to my business but please do not block other people from entering.  I need to live and be able to pay my dues.

Whatever Happened to Please and Thank You?!

The words Please and Thank You have the ability to open many doors to all the people that use them.  When I look at everyday behavior of people in society, these word are very seldom used.  I walk into a local market and make a purchase, give my money to the clerk they give me my receipt and that is it.   Where is my thank you for coming into the store to buy something and not going somewhere else to spend money.  Entitlement is is what I see in many people today and it is very wrong and a key reason society is the way it is, upside down.
Today, people are educated more than the past generations and there is more money flowing in the economy than before but manners have gone down the drain.   When I hear the humble words Thank You, I feel appreciated and want to return to this person at the particular establishment.  Remember, money does not buy class and a nice expensive suit does not make the man.  If you put a suit on a monkey, it is still a monkey.
Do not forget to use the magic words that should have been taught as a toddler and society will become a better one.

Get Your Nose Out Of The Clouds...

We are all special  in our own ways just do not forget that we are not alone.  There are close to seven billion people in the world we live in.  Imagine if all thought that their poop did not smell.  Not a single person would do any manual labor and nobody would communicate with others.  Well on the communication part  some spouses would not mind the silence.
If we could all talk our problems would be less.  What all people really want can be counted on one hand (housing, food, water, healthcare, education, companionship).    You can want everything but you only need a few things.  I have a friend that said to me, "I cannot live with my super-expensive hair styling and my special nail cutting person."  Spending a zillion dollars on hair does qualify as basic necessity of life, it is a want.
I want to win the quadrillion dollar lotto but I only need a few dollars to get through the day, week, month or year.  There are different classes of people because we as people choose it to be such, otherwise we are all the same.
When I write this it is not to offend or aggravate  any one person, it is all meant to alert people that we can all have what need first.  Needs are equal to all but wants vary from person to person.  Before we can take care of our wants, we must all first manage to have all our needs sorted.

We have to be able to communicate with the people. 

So Many Stupid People...........Only One Smart Person..Me.

There are so many people in the world.  Nature has made all of us different.  Each person has their own thinking pattern and ways that they reach a conclusion.  When one person does not agree with the methods of other then the others are classified as stupid.
It would nice for all people to understand each other but life would be extremely boring when we all come to the same conclusions at the same time.  On the other hand, when we are working with others on a common task and our results are different then the tasks would take much longer to complete.  We become aggravated with the situations and start calling everyone stupid.

Light Hearted

Jobs need to run efficiently and in order for this to happen all the parties involved need to be on the same level of intelligence.

Super Smart

In our not so perfect world personalities are always clashing in their attempt to communicate with higher ups (the Boss Wannabe's).  More often than not these beings view things from a point of different than other people.

The Boss Wannabe

Money.........What's The Point.....

Money was in vented to be able to have transactions for goods and services between people.  The more you have the more you can buy.  Eventually you purchase everything you need to survive and then you start storing your money (saving).
How much does a person need to live if they have everything.....This all depends on how extravagant they want to live.  Some people are satisfied with the basics and others need to have extravagances.  Satisfaction levels vary from person to person.  It is good to be satisfied with the basics because there are times when the economy is in a poor state and you might not be able to live the high life for long.  If you are hungry bean soup will satisfy you just the same as a beef wellington.
Money plays a big role between wants and needs.  There is a big different between "I want to eat" and "I need to eat".   If we pay more attention to our needs and not our wants, the need for money would be smaller.

Tattoos.....Not For Every Body

Tattoos are decorations on the human bodies.   A drawing that you put on you body when you are fat will not look the same when you are skinny.  Imagine the tattoo Welcome to Jamaica Have A Nice Day, on the grape and then imagine the same tattoo after the grape shrivels up to a raisin.  That same tattoo will show only the letters as follows WTJHAND.    No longer a marking with any meaning, just a jumble.

Overstaying your stay............

Every now and then there people in you circle of friends and acquaintances, the come to visit you and they do not want to leave.  Not all people are the same with their people skills.  If you top to visit a friend you have to know when the visit is over, you are not moving in.  There are limits in life and everyone should theirs. 

A typical date is about fours max.  Unless things are going well and noon e minds.  When you go depends on all the parties involved, if things to talk about start to run out then it is time to go.  If the people you visited start putting on their pajamas that is a sign theta you have to go.
Limits know yours it will keep you happier and you friends will like you more and ask you over again.  If people go out on a date and one starts to drink and forgets to stop or slow down he or she becomes a burden  on the others. Nobody likes to see another person drunk out of their wits and swimming in a pool of puke.  This would definitely mean  no more dates with them.

If you gone out you had several drinks you saw the movie or the play you later had a meal and some more drinks, it is time to go home (your own).  Leave your friends be.
Today, I had a person visit me.  He just wanted to say hello.  He said his greeting  and a little while later he was repeating himself.  I had things to do and asked him to go unless he had something else to say.  He started to say that I  do not wan t him around and I am not a friend.  For me these comments are out of place.  This is a person that obviously has other problems and is looking to rub off their negative hora on someone else. It is not the time or the place.  The song from the late great Ray Charles said it best, "Hit the road Jack and don't come back no more."

On the other hand you you want all your friend to be singing the song from Blondie, "Call Me", so know your limits!  I like to talk and i like to listen but if you have nothing else to say do me a favor and let me go about my business.  In these trying times it is good to have compassion for others but only to the point  tolerated.  The line many times is fine but every person should know not to cross it.  The saying "good fences makes good friends", also applies here.

Multitasking......

Time is of the essence because in today's society people need to do more to make ends meet. The term walk and chew gum is one of multitasking.  People need to save time or at least do more in a certain time frame.
The sexual position that allows both parties involved to do other things at the same time they are involved with each other is when the woman is on all fours and the man enters her from behind.  The woman could be on the telephone talking to her friends.  The man on the other hand could rest his dinner plate on the woman back and enjoy his meal.  For even more efficiency the both could be facing the television broadcasting their favorite shows.
This would be multitasking by all parties involved to exponential levels.
Imagine putting these two together so they could get bodily pleasure as well as their on going task......

Babysitter.......

If ask you to watch my child while I go to dinner or run errands, all you have to do is keep an eye on things so that nothing goes wrong with the house.  The babysitter is not the parent and should not act as such.  If a person volunteers to watch a child it is because they want to be nice.  Retuning home to  a disaster erases all the good that was done before.
Not all people are brought up to do all jobs or tasks.  I happen to be a bartender and I like being with people and talking and listening and generally mixing it up.  To do a job purely for the financial return is wrong unless you have talent.  Last night I went with my date of eighteen years to a neighborhood Hot spot (bar-restaurant).   I had not reservation on Valentine's Day, oops!  We chose to sit at the bar.  Let me tell you the whole experience was much more enjoyable than if the hostess was to give us a table.  The room was crowded and the waitresses were out to make money so the service would have been fast and pushy.  The hostess asked if I had a reservation and the answer was no.  The bar was empty we sat at the bar. We were closer to each other and the bartender, she happened to be a gorgeous chatty blonde.  Her attitude and service made the experience excellent.  I had the opportunity to observe the servers (they were women) all they did was go to tables to put food or drink down .  The only interaction that the servers had was either between themselves or the bartender.  I do not want to know if my server is going through her menstrual cycle or if her boyfriend  is a lousy lover.   From the bar a person has a bird's eye view of the whole place and everyone there.  Not a single dull moment just in case you are alone or your date turns out not tone who you expected.
As with the babysitter, there is a tremendous responsibility in looking after another person it not about anything else.  When you leave a person in charge, it is for peace of mind and not to return to a physical and mental disaster.

Happy Valentine's Day....

How many babies will be boys and how many girls will be born nine months from today.  The sexual position used will play a great role on the result.  To produce a baby there must be one sperm and one egg.  The eggs produced by the females are all the same.  On the other hand sperm have two types.
The difference in the sperm is there are fast short distance swimmer sperm and slow long distance sperm.  Sperm fertilize eggs to produce embryos.  The sperm that are earmarked to produce girls are the long distance slow swimmers.  The sperm that are the male producing ones swim a short distance and then die. This then leads me to believe that to produce a boy baby the couple having intercourse today will have to choose the sexual position that provides the most direct route to the awaiting egg.  This would be woman on all fours and man entering from behind.  Another position that provides an equally short direct route for the sperm to meet the egg would b e for the woman to be on top of the man.
All other sexual positions are not as effective for producing a boy baby and the possibility of having a girl baby are exponentially greater.
Which ever is the case today above all have fun and be nice!

Are you lazy or Do you have a learning Disablity..

I have a son that is now in second grade.  He writes some of his letters backwards the teachers say that this habit will fade away.  I Think that my boy needs help for Dyslexia.  I mentioned it to the teacher and the principal each an every years for the past four years since pre-kindergarten.  We are in excellent school district and the principal does not want to change her ranking .  She might want to pass the buck.   I do not want to believe that the people in charge of my sons schooling are skirting the issues to save their reputations and the extra work load for themselves. As a father I am supposed to do what ever is best for my child.
I want to know if my child truly needs help or he is suffering from another childhood habit of laziness.

If You know the answer, Don't ask me..

People are funny in their ways.    Every now and then there is someone that will ask a question.  When they get the answer, they will start saying, "I knew that", "don't tell me".  If they already have the answer to their questions, what is the point?  spare me the abuse!  People want to hear themselves talk or be showered by praise.   Do me a favor if you do not want my opinion do not ask me!
Everybody has their own load to carry.  I do not need any extra grief in my life.

Time

Time is an essential to the continuation of life.  We all have a specified period of life on this earth.  Please don't waste my time with silliness i have my own problems to take care of.

Women!?

The world is not enough for women.  Most of them think that their poop does not smell.  If we look at the old testament,  God created Man in his image.  A little while later he created Woman from a broken stinky extra rib that the Man had.   From that moment on the Woman wanted to boss her partner around and create havoc in his life.  When woman was part of man as a bad bone, she gave him pain and suffering all day long  what brilliant idea to have an ailing part of your body to be taken out and made into a partner  that will now give you pain both inside and out of your life.
Life is complicated as it is and along comes another being supposedly to be a partner and keep man from being lonely.  Instead things are a turned into bigger messes.  For a few minutes of companionship all of a sudden the whole world comes crumbling down.
From the beginning of time wars are started for women and their honor.  Without them there would not be  so many arguments.  On the other hand life is so pleasant when the opposite sex offers their company.  Men are calmer and life is smoother until....Women have a cycle that is supposed to last a fix time but there exceptions and then no one is at rest.  Avoid contact at all costs, walk away, save yourself the uncalled for aggravation and undue aging.
Women are like an addictive drug.  The more you have, the more you need more often.  When you stop being with them aging sets in loneliness and sadness life cost more.  Women is the vessel for men to continue existing and for this reason we say that we cannot live without them.  When women have babies they then concentrate on their babies men become a nuisance to them and are only necessary touring food and help with upbringing of the children and then the needs and wants of the men get forgotten.  Nagging comes into play a man becomes a Honey-Do Man, always doing something for her and the family nothing for him.  Before you know it time passes so fast and poof.
Plan carefully because time inevitably pass but more pleasantly and with less headache.  Life of Man and Woman will be more enjoyable if you let them have their moments in silence, go to your happy place away from them.

Making poached eggs in the microwave oven..

Eggs are one of the best sources of protein in our diet.  I like eggs cooked any way.  Lately I have been trying too loose weight and had e been cutting out the carbohydrates from my meals.  I discovered that when I have eggs for breakfast my appetite is smaller the rest of the day.  I do not like to make a big mess in the kitchen but i still like taste.  I get two paper plates, one for the bottom.  The eggs tend to pop and make a mess in the microwave oven and for this reason I need the other plate to cover them while cooking.  In the bottom plate before the eggs are cracked open,  I drop about two table spoons of water.  This will prevent the eggs from sticking to the plate and create steam for the eggs to cook.  Depending on the microwave oven it is set on high for one and a half minute.  I toast two slices of bread and here are the microwave poached eggs ready for my day to start.

Meow-Meow the Cat...

Meow-Meow the backyard cat sits by the rear window all the time.  Deep down this cat loves to tease Dino, my dog.  She is much smaller than the dog but she is miles ahead of him in intelligence.   There are times Meow-Meow will look at Dino and no reaction just a stare.  There are other instance when the dog will chase the cat but will not catch her because she is more nimble and much faster than the cat.  I would say that she loves to tease him.  She would sit for the longest time in front of hime without moving and he decides to make a move toward her and  she then makes one or two jumps baffling him.
This sort of behavior is exhibited among humans as well.  A woman will give a look to a man and he realizes what is going on and decides to make a move.  The man walks over to the lady and she gets up to leave.  This could be one of two things.  One the man took too long to make a move or two she never meant any thing by the look.
Confusion is a key factor in male female communication.  Both man and woman want the same thing in life but the are sending the wrong signals.   I am an only child and this gives me the ability to be able to talk to anyone about anything without fear of rejection.  Any feedback is a learning  experience.  Rejection is not a bad thing rather it just makes my skills sharper.
The cat and the dog look at each other all day long all the want is play together.  When the do have this chance they are bewildered because their feelings have been building up.  Anticipation is a major deal breaker because the actions and reactions of the species are many time not in sync with the expectations.  When a man is cool, calm and collected his advances will likely be accepted by woman.  Need and hunger is sensed by the opposite sex and usually works negatively.  So, I have learned to be cool and secure.

Personalities......how do we get along......go with the flow.

Everyone in the world has a personality of their own.  How does everybody get along? Very simple just go with the flow.  Do not look to make waves.  We are all individuals and have different likes and dislikes.  Some people like to screw other people and other people enjoy being screwed.  Our tastes vary as much as the sexual desires of all the people.

Why is it that men want to be women and women want to men.  Personalities.  A person's thinking patterns are mold from the day they are born.  I have three sons ages 16,14, and 8.  My boys are good hearted individuals but they have their own needs and wants.  My sons tend to argue often but overall they get along.  Patience is very important and sometimes it is missing.

I had and have a plan for the way I want to live my life.  I meet left and right everyday.  The people I meet all think they are god's gift to the world and that they are it.  These same people are single and want to find a partner.  It is very hard to find exactly what they are looking for because they all have a fixed idea of what they want without truly looking at themselves and what they have to offer.

I say it all the time,  look at yourself and then choose a partner.

Person can not be fifty years old unemployed and want to be with a twenty-something Victoria Secret model.  This goes the same for a big girl wanting to be with a Playgirl model.  What is the common thread? Money or power which is money.

I am not saying that I have the best life but I am not out of my universe.  A Toy Poodle cannot sexually be with a German Sheppard.  The only way anything can happen is with help of a laboratory test tube.  There are matchmaking services for people that cannot find each other on their own.  These services if they are any god will be blunt and tell their clients to face reality if they want to find someone.  Stop wasting your time and money.  Come down and smell the coffee.  Our needs and wants can not always be the same as we grow in life.

Cats can do what dogs cannot....

When i am usually relaxing in my chair, Meow-Meow the backyard cat is doing something to get may attention.  The other day I was having dinner with my father.  In one of our conversations, my dad, mentioned that his tenants cat usually sit on the window sill all day long.  As this cat is sitting, along comes another neighborhood cat and is sitting on the other side of the window.  The two cats look at each other. This morning as I was having my breakfast, Meow-Meow had climbed to the top of the window screen.  My dog Dino could not do this.  Dino would most likely destroy the screen or even the window itself.
Many time cats chase squirrels up trees but dogs have no claws or balance to go up any trees.  If we are to compare these to animals to humans we would say that dogs are the equivalent of a wrestler and the cat a ballerina.  Both the wrestler and the ballerina are athletic.  The wrestler could not do what the ballerina does and vice  versa.  Both athletes have strength but in different areas.  When a dog corners a cat , he had better act quickly because the cat can jump on to the dogs back and cause major damage with its claws.

Sloppy Joe

Sloppy Joes are the quintessential food of lunchrooms everywhere.  It is a plate made of cooked ground meat mixed with seasonings and tomatoes and sauce.  This meal nourished many an appetite and still goes with anything and anytime.  This cooked meat sauce could also be served over pasta and be called bolongnese.
Make a bowl of pasta and now it is pasta with meat sauce.  Throw some beans in and you have chili..  some grated cheese and a glass of wine we're in pasta heaven.  This food is a Super bowl staple full of protein and tasty too.  This food is  versatile.

Meow-Meow.....the cat that is getting to be like the typical woman......

The backyard cat, Meow-Meow follows me everywhere I am around the house.  She only sit s for me to pet her when I giving her food.  A typical woman puts out only when she knows there is something of value is  coming to her.  For the most part the cat is a much more intelligent animal than the dog.

Dino the dog is constantly looking to be around me no matter what he is getting in return.  The dog is by nature a beggar is not out of place sucking to his master.  The  dog is always asking for something and giving himself whether or not he gets a reward. The cat however is a nag when she fells she wants or needs whatsoever    (stroking or nourishment).  Today's liberated woman is the same,  driving circles around the man when she wants.  The dog on the other hand is like the man, putting himself  out no matter what comes back.  Hopefully he does not get used and abused otherwise his bite is ready.  The cat has a greater chance of scratching and biting no matter what kindness is given to her.

Meow-Meow the back yard cat....a loyal friend

MeowMeow the back yard cat is a loyal friend.  Every time I am around the cat is following me everywhere.  The dog I have in the house is the same way except that the Dino the dog wants to knock me down and lick my face all the time.  I like both animals except the cat works around me.  
If the cat was a spouse or a mate she would be perfect, there when you want here and quiet or in her place when you are not in the mood.
Everyone has their problems and needs and mates are there to help and listen.  Friends are special when just like the cat are there when you want.  The dog is cool but sometimes cramps my mood.  Many times I have to do a song and dance for him first and then he sits quietly. 
When the cat and the dog are face to face they simply look at each other and go about their lives.  They both want food, water, love and that's it......

People only care about themselves.....

Everyday for twenty eight years someone blocks my driveway. Everyday I am asking someone to move their car so I can conduct my business. Arguments and name calling from everywhere. I would call the authorities to have the vehicles ticketed and by the time they arrive the offending vehicles are gone. Today I ask a person not to block the way and he blurts out that I am selfish. I am trying to run a business and I am the one without feelings for others.............I have nothing but expletives to express my anger. I am the one paint the fixed cost to run the business and the time to be in business everyday to feed my family and the word SELFISH simply does not fit me. People have to come to the realization that every one has a right to live in the world. The same people also have to realize that the same world changes daily and must get accustomed to it. When I have no business because my driveway is blocked and I can not make my obligations who is going to stop the bills.  Certainly not the person blocking my driveway and only caring about their free spot to run their errands.

Selfish.....an incorrect term!!!

Running a business is a difficult thing. I own a parking lot in a mixed neighborhood. Everyday someone is blocking my driveway. People are extremely funny when they do not get their way, extremely childish. When a person does not get their way or things change everyone should go with the flow. Everyday life goes on people should not go to extremes to get their way. As life goes on not everything is worth a fight or at least not the same caliber. Protecting your family should not take up the same energy as protecting a driveway. Some people have a smaller thinking capacity than others. Why is it that all the crap comes to my doorstep? I am easygoing and believe that everyone deserves respect. The problem is that not all people give respect back. Wanting what is rightfully mine does not make me selfish, it just makes me right.

Read through Everyone's nonsense...

Every person likes to be mentally stroked more than challenged. I live and work with many people every day. Just because a person has a title of MANAGER or BOSS does not mean they actually know what they are supposed to do or say. School gives a person a book education. It is life that takes what is learned in university and tapers it to the environment we are in. I am not by any means the professor of life but I refuse to be put down by the donkeys of the world because they have a title. A man leads by example not by words. If for example the bosses are saying "we must cut expenses or we must stream line our operation"...They should not be dining on filet mignon and lobster tails. Yes boss , you're right master.......you know what Go "F" yourself boss your people are starving and you are acting like the king. Leaders everywhere start out with good intentions and then power overcomes them and they become the same as their predecessors or even worse.
