People Have Disagreements so Get Over It!

I've noticed over the past several months that many friends and family members sometimes do not see eye to eye on certain things. As I see it, based on what I have observed over the months, these "Disagreements" are usually nothing more than two people (or sometimes more than two) being different, NOT one being right and the other being wrong or even downright evil!

Only because I care, it is beginning to bother me when good friends and / or close family members disagree and argue about a certain topic and they feel that one has to be right and one must be wrong. I've noticed that because often times neither is wrong or right, only different, they never come to a settlement of any kind and then they begin to call each other stupid or evil or etc.

I've noticed that disagreements like these often have only one thing to lose or to gain... One get's what they want and the other does not get what they want. That's all! There is NO great sin either way. There is absolutely NOTHING immoral that happens either way, rather ... one gets what "they" want and the other does not. Do you "Get" what I'm trying to say?

There is NO earth moving result no matter which way it goes! There IS NO good guy or bad guy! It's simply that, one must give in to the other in order to have a peaceful solution. The problem is, many people would rather die a horrible death and take the whole with them than to give in or to "Lose" an argument. People by nature are often impulsively self centered. However, people are also given by nature an intelligence to understand and control their impulses, but too many people prefer to argue to the end of the earth rather than "Give in".

Now I know that there really are evil nasty people in the world, and that will always be and there's nothing we can do about that. Those "Evil" people usually have no friends so they sorta don't count anyway.... but enough about me LOL! ;-)

This post has been nothing more than my own opinion based on my own observations and is not meant to be considered "The Gospel" or anything like that. I just felt like writing this today, that's all.

Have a great day and ... Stay Boosted!

Stay Boosted Gary - Introduction

Me (Gary), "Staying Boosted!"

I'm creating this humble little blog in order to write about my experiences I've had after deciding to no longer settle for crappy life situations. What do I mean by this statement?

Well, I suppose there are several places that I could start, but I think that the best place to start would be the day after fathers day in 2003, although I will likely seem to bounce around quite a bit, starting now. :) That being said...

Striving for Awesomeness!

In the past year or so (starting approx. summer of 2009), "crappy stuff" has been happening to me in the midst of me trying to "Stay Boosted!" and make myself and my life more , well... "Awesome!"

In June of 2009 I was absolutely hammered by personal life crisis' that I will explain in more detail at a later date. I reacted to these Crappy Crisis' in such a way that I eventually became quite "Proactive" in making life better for myself and my children, and it was actually working. So, as I was "being proactive" I was feeling very strong because, although I was not exactly fixing the crappy stuff, I was overcoming the depression that normally follows along with such crappy stuff. But then...

With very little warning, on top of everything else, just as I was beginning to feel strong, powerful and if you don't mind, I like to use the term "More Awesomer", (bad grammar intended for fun), I found out in October or early November of 2009 that I had to have Total Hip Replacement Surgery at the young, tender age of only 43 years old. "Holy Crap!" I said to myself. "This is way too much, I can't handle this! I'm finally pushed over the edge and defeated!" Well, guess what? ...

To make a long story short, I somehow found the strength and the courage to tackle this Hip Replacement Surgery head-on and defeat it instead of allowing "it" to defeat me. I got on the phone and called the surgeon and said "Let's do this thing as soon as possible so that I will be well recovered by next summer (that'd be summer of 2010) for the benefit of my children! They like to do things with their Daddy in the summer months". And so on January 22, 2010 I got the surgery over with, and I am now (as of May 2010) able to "do things" with my children ... Yeah baby!!

Boy am I ever glad I did I did this when I did! Because I have been able to walk better than I ever have in the past nearly 3 years, the quality of the time with my kids is light years better! And they (my kids) are also ecstatically glad that Daddy (that's me) is now able to do stuff with them out doors like never before! Well, almost.

I said that I would likely start my story from the day after fathers day of 2003, but I also said that I would likely bounce around in chronological time as well and I already have :P

So before I close this post, I would like to at least say... In June of 2003 my children and I survived a flash flood while we were visiting at my fathers house 250 miles away from where we live now. To be honest, this was the beginning of some issues with Post Traumatic Stress within myself, thus extremely affecting my emotional health for several years and inevitably my physical health as well.

In my next post I will tell more of my story of "ME" and my journey to overcoming the severe difficulties that life can sometimes throw at us. I hope that this blog, and me telling my story will help others to overcome their difficulties by showing how hope and determination really can cause amazing things to happen. So, until then...

Listen to others, but "THINK" for yourself and...

Stay Boosted!
