I would like to offer my sincerest apologies to those folks around me, acquaintances, friends, dear friends, loved ones alike that may or may not have been affected by my generally negative disposition lately.
For most people that know me well, you know that I really do like to laugh and I am a very trusting person. But, I also do get accused often of having a not so friendly surface. I disagree, but whatever. So be it, either way.
A situation has occurred recently in which Pam and I have been greatly disappointed, even offended. What sucks the most is, its happened before and we didn’t see the signs of repetition (though we should have) and were even warned by a few people close to us that it would in fact happen again. We didn’t listen. It happened again.
Pam and I both try to live moral lives. We get off track like anyone, but for the most part, I think we are decent, good hearted folks. And, if I make a mistake I admit it. If I’m wrong I admit it. If I wrong someone, I apologize. I know I place to much trust in the assumption that others will do the same. And, it infuriates me when peoples wrongs and injustices don’t get admitted, when they get ignored or even justified…especially when it affects those closest and dearest to me. It infuriates me to the point that it affects everything I do.
Oh well, lesson learned. Twice.
And, so with writing this, I’m done with the latest bullshit. In the end, this latest situation will likely have no lasting effect on me, my family, my business or my clients.
Here is a quote that I found recently by Marianne Williamson (I have no idea who this person is) that I really like.
“We can always choose to perceive things differently. You can focus on what’s wrong in your life, or you can focus on what’s right.”
There are to many great things going on in our lives, good people in our lives and bright future in our lives to be concerned with the silly and insignificant actions, though wrong, of others of late.
Now, back to whatever we were doing!
Amen Brother! Well put ole boy!
