Why Do We Do This?

I have been thinking about why we do this, we do we dust our selves off and get back up after Bawhoies?

...Because feeling good is most important to us.  Because we are in tune with that pull to growth and learning.  The later being a double edge sword as that means we are highly sensitive also to our surroundings, and must focus more to know if it us or those around us.  I also think that for must of us, something in life has caused us to need to take control of our consciousness and provide beneficial self talk.  It is similar to what happens to a person who truly follows a 12-step program.  My addiction was the food that I tried to soothe the emotions with, and moving away from that state of being puts you on the road of self growth.  Yes, it is a long road, but that is a good thing.  The road is your life, always going somewhere.  And when a Bawhoie knocks me off, I have gotten much better at returning to my focus and the focus feels even better each time.

Another reason we do this, to give our self kudos, confidence.  Give some praise to yourself today for dusting yourself off and getting back on the road.  :-)

Two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help, and what he cannot help.

Bawhoie!

What was that wave of energy that knocked me off focus!?!  Maybe it was planetary?  Astrogloy.com said; “You'll need everything in your arsenal once Mars squares off with Uranus...." That was followed by the full moon on the 13^th, which I know from experience does has an effect on our energies!  

Who knows? Sometimes it is planetary, sometimes it is our own biorhythms, and sometimes it is simply an overload of all the energies in us or around us.  I call it a "Bawhoie", and ultimately, the reason doesn’t matter.  What is important is picking yourself back up. It is a temporary set back! Get this good please; it is not failure unless YOU give up and abandon your goals!

To begin again means that you won't give up.
To begin again means you're trying.
You can either start over and live your life
Or spend the rest of your life slowly dying.

It is never the falling that makes us fail.
It is never the pain or the crying.
You can never fail in life, my friend,
Unless you give up trying.
