Being good

There is a difference. Some people try their best to be good. Bless them, or what you say...

Others believe they are good already, or don't care.

I wish to keep the goodies as my friends if possible.

I wish I fell in love with a good man.

I wish I was good too. Always.

The selfish mother

Everybody is egoistic. All humans are selfish. All you want is to feel good. 

When you help someone you do it because you want to feel helpful. I'm told.

I'm a single mother. Did shopping, cooking, doing the laundry really make me feel good all those years?

Whatever. It's not what I want to hear. 

Thank you.

Worries

Can worrying ever be a positive thing?
If you find solutions to problems, or if you manage to do something to avoid coming problems, then worrying might be useful..?
Or is worrying just a negative thing, that one should try to avoid, try to stop doing?
Some people pray when they are worried.  Some people send good thoughts.
Maybe such focusing is a useful after all?

Used to dishonest people

I think I've been around too long in a world of people acting as politicians. I don't think I'm political myself, but I tend to worry about how people will use things against me, blame things on me in order to look good themselves or have a hidden agenda. Why? Because it has happened to me before.
I suspect that people I meet have hidden agendas, especially if they are smart. Not my friends, of course, but others.

Recently someone held that against me. This way of thinking. The fact that I don't always trust people the way I used to. I pointed out that it was necessary for sales people to understand people's objectives. We didn't agree on that either. It could just lead to misunderstandings if you jump to the wrong conclusions. Well, sure.

Now I'm in such a situation. A person is saying one thing but I suspect a hidden agenda.  In what why can it be a problem to be aware of the possibility of people not speaking their minds?

Looking for a good laugh

I was to the theater watching a comedy and heard some people laugh out loud. Well, I just smiled. 

When I came home my son told me about the conversation at a dinner party he had been to. "It was a bit like geniuses speculating, but more like idiots speculating". 

Finally I cracked up.

Communication

Have you heard about one of the theories on personal chemistry? Well, the one I've heard explains that personal chemistry is all about communication. If we have a similar way to communicate or not, when it comes to speed and level of details. Maybe those things are important, but I believe your previous experiences shouldn't be forgotten, your backpacker, what kind of people you are used to and what things you fear or have bad experience from.

Communication can be difficult, yet I think it's one of the best things in life. When I get to share another persons thoughts, ideas, point of view. Don't you think so? A pretty stupid thing to write on a blog isn't it?

Do you prefer to watch TV before some kind of communication? If you know the thoughts of they people you have contact with and you know that their thoughts won't interest you, or if they simply don't wish to share their minds with you. If you are tired of your own thoughts you might use the TV to give you some new pictures in your head, at least temporarily without having to communicate. It works, just like reading does.

These days I've got a child around who are big enough to start interesting discussions. It makes me extremely happy.
