What Have You Got To Give?

Here we are ending another year, feeling older, wiser, sassier. Can you truly say you resolved the year's resolutions? What have you learned this 2014? OMG!, LOL, IDK...

I know I've learned to be more patient, yet that in it self is a struggle at times. But thank God I have the means to reflect and realize time is on my side. Why didn't I realize this when I was in my 20's or 30's? Because I was impatient!!

I have also learned Social Media has its place and PLEASE people use it wisely. Oh, come on I can write whatever I want, you don't have to read it, turn the page, click on the X. I have a right to write how I feel. But what I also noted about Social Media is people, mostly women, use their posts and respond to feeds to build up their ego. Yes, I said EGO!
Social Media was created for just that. Then business networking climbed on board which is really what it should be more about. I mean advertise your wares, post about your business successes, etc., but the Selfies? Really? Those need to go. Social Media should not become a reality show. I know people need uplifting more than ever these days, the field of psychology is booming as people remain to have lost their way. Yet, they post their sorrows, loss, despair all on Social Media.Thank's a problem IF you are in need of self reflection. Do I need to know you care having a bad day? Can my post REALLY cheer you up? Maybe, maybe not.

Again, use Social Media wisely and maybe we can all just get along without fake egos shrouding and clouding the real reason for that post.

This year I request your response to Social Media related to this post.
Be patient, be wise, Chat to ya in 2015

What's It Going To Take?

Come on people, what's it going to take to resolve our sorrows, to resolve our communications we so lack, to resolve to make peace, to come to AN AGREEMENT????
I'm inside my cocoon watching the "important" people take charge. Where's that an agreement? What I see is a circus, a show, a race around the pole that produces nothing!  What we need is communication, spoken clearly by the warden in Cool Hand Luke. But not a one way road of communication, no no no. We need something right, magical even, over powering for ALL. What's it going to take to come together, like the Beatles sang!
Now, I'm a voicetrust person. However, as I age, I so know how to think before I speak, not like when I was young and lame, okay some days I'm still lame! My voice is the voice of those who are timid, afraid, or lack the proper words because it is not the allowance we afford. They say, don't hurt their feelings, okay, I'm sensitive as well, at times, they say we can't say that, they say let them lead us regardless of where we end up!!  Who the hell is "They?"  Because "they" don't collaborate and come to a consensus and that's how you resolve. CONSENSUS.
So now I ask you, do we really know how to use this noun for all the good people?
"A consensus of opinion among judges," as in agreement, harmony, concurrence, accord, unity, unanimity, solidarity, these are what I do not see among businesses, among people who NEED to COLLABORATE for the good of the product.
What's it going to take? Back off and listen, I do and I know sometimes it's not easy because you have so much to say, so much to add to the pot of "good ideas", but hold on. 
If you are a person who is in charge of one or many, let the people speak! Add this to the pros and cons list and as a TEAM collaborate and come to a consensus.
That's what it takes, I know because I've seen it, not consistently, but that's why I'm blogging this topic.
Not what is your input on this?

It always starts out great...


Happy New Year to all of you,

The new year can bring us such hope, achievement,  excitment, anticipation, and even despair.
As 2014 is now in front of me, or us, it must be thought as a partner...a compatible partner. One you can converse with, debate with, even negotiate with.
Why?
It all starts out great but without that constant communication with oneself, you will lose the goal, the excitement and maintain the despair.
When we set goals, when we start anew, let's remember that there is an outcome. However, this outcome is not an end but a beginning to a lifestyle.
My daughter is a personal trainer (fit4lifebody@gmail.com) who offers achievement,  goals with excitement, anticipation,  and even despair. She has lived all of these emotions (www.kaidensmommie.blogspot.com) as we all have and we should live these emotions.
Why?
We need to communicate these emotions to our self in order to remain at our best. Even during despair, talk it out, with someone or with your self...your soul.
My new year has brought me to a place I have purposely been traveling. In my mind, I have been searching for peace within myself and with that a partner to share our life.
Not always an easy venture. I mean working on yourself is one trip. One of achievement,  hope, trials, and despair at times. But it's a goal; good,  bad, and at times ugly with myself.
After, finding my peace within me...and that will remain an ongoing life effort, I have met my match! I know, so exciting, so much greatness, so much compatibility with communication! I am truly blessed at this time to have met, people and accept myself as an individual.
It always starts out great.
