Grasping at Straws

There are some stressors for which there may be several hypotheses and I am determined to find out the underlying cause for each challenge that is attempting to distract me from what really matters. The thing that should surprise me but doesn’t is that they all started as issues the size of a speck of dust… now they appear to be the size of Mount Everest.

The importance of nipping issues in the bud or grabbing the bull by the horns is so fundamental.
Some things don’t just simple go away, and that is what I have come to accept as the reason why these lessons keep resurfacing time and time again.

Is it any wonder that I keep making choices and decisions that appears to be the best only to have to beat myself up for making another mistake and worse, not being able to forgive myself and allow my mind to recover from the beating. One thing I notice is very consistent in most, if not all those booboos, is that money is involved.

This liquid asset called money …

It is there when I spend money to earn money; when I earn money that is not enough to spend, Being owed money or making offers of it before it actually gets to my pocket. That’s a biggie!
Unbalanced investments make learning a very expensive adventure in the area of choices, decsions and consequences.

So I commit with myself with th universe as the witness and therefore whatever it is I need to do is worth working on improving my monetary mangement skill.

God knows I do not want to spend the rest of my days dealing with withered ways of dealing with ups and eniz. I tell you, it may be a long while to go through every stinker and change what can be and drop what cannot be…

The Serenity Prayer sums it up very nicely.

“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change
Courage, to change the things that I can
Wisodm to know the difference”
