A DEEPER THOUGHT.......

 Yes folks there is a side of me that is soft..........(stop laughing or you'll hurt my feelers)

 It's the time of year when we are surrounded by love and family, when peace and joy fill the air as we hear the innocent laughter of children and the excitement that is filling their heads with the anticipation of Christmas day.  We all get caught up in how wonderful and heartwarming it is, yet it's so sad and almost disgraceful that we can only manage as a society to do this but once a year.

Our world is full of dysfunction......and if you don't think it's in your world LOOK AGAIN, or check your neighbors world, or their neighbors. Believe me it's there!!  Our world screams dysfunction!!

We build the tallest skyscrapers and the widest roadways.....but we tear down our fellow humans with our intolerance and closed minds.  We spend a lot of money, money that most don't have, to get the things we think will make us happy, but for all we have, for all we spend, we enjoy life less and less.  We build giant houses that remain empty except for the dog or cat that is left at home. We live in a world where each day has always had 24 hours, but we seem to have less time.  We have more knowledge, but less common sense.  We have more and more medicine and cures for what ails you....but less health each year.  We don't smile much!

We live in a world dominated by possessions, must haves, desires, but our core values have been reduced......we talk a lot, but we don't communicate.  

We love our fellow humans way too little, and we hate them way too much.

We desire to see other worlds, but fail to see our own world.  We complain when it happens to us, but turn a blind eye when it happens to someone else.  We build rockets to take us to a different universe, but we won't cross the street to meet our own neighbors.   

DYSFUNCTION 

 We are all part of it. We each have a share! However, we can also be part of the solution....So today instead of getting stressed out when you are in the long line up this holiday season.....let's start with this......maybe just smile!  It won't hurt you, I promise......just sayin...
