Feelings Blog #4?

Hey… It’s been a while since I’ve done a “feelings” blog.

I “feel” pretty level lately. I feel like my blood pressure is MORE under control than it has been in a while – but I’m feeling a little lethargic.  I feel like my job is not utilizing my giftings, talents, and abilities.

I read a blog by Scott “That Guy With The Nametag” Ginsberg and he had some interesting things to say.

1. You work a job that is SO you.
2. You work a job that doesn’t feel like a job.
3. You work a job that you would do for free.
4. You work a job that makes business personal.
5. You work a job that you would do for nothing.
6. You work a job that demands original thinking.
7. You work a job that makes you laugh, every day.
8. You work a job that makes you forget what time it is.
9. You work a job that combines business AND pleasure.
10. You work a job that keeps you confident, yet uncertain.
11. You work a job that people couldn’t pay you (not) to do.
12. You work a job that you would pay for the opportunity to do.
13. You work a job that makes you think: “God. I just LOVE my clients!”
14. You work a job that you would still do if you were the last person on Earth.
15. You work a job that makes you think: “I can’t believe I’ve getting paid for this!”
16. You work a job that makes you think: “Dude, I have the greatest job in the world.”
17. You work a job that enlists your truest talents, gifts, passions values and philosophies.
18. You work a job that you’re excited to tell people about, yet not in a hurry to tell people about.
19. You work a job that, when you google the phrase “perfect job,“ your picture comes up as a top hit!

Now… I’ve got to find me one of THOSE jobs!

pre-conceived

How frustrating it is
when deeds done with good intent
are twisted, perverted, & slandered.

When the whispered remarks of
gossip, hatred, & malice
are accepted as truth by “friends”

Preconceived notions
Ego-filled emotions
There is no magic potion

Relentless forward motion
Toss your pain into the ocean
He has brought the healing lotion

Sorry!

I’ve been gone from posting for a VERY LONG TIME and I’m going to try again – for the 154th time.  If you know me – you can usually find me hanging out at Facebook or on Twitter – but I will make an effort to begin posting again starting later today!

Feelings Blog #2

Ok.  So I feel – again it’s probably psychological – but I feel like I’m thinking more clearly.  I’m not drinking as much soda (I usually drink DIET) – so that might be the whole “thinking clearly” thing.  I feel like I’m more rational and logical.   What’s that all about.

Walk-In Clinic

Tonight I walked into a walk-in clinic to seek treatment on my sore knee… My knee has been bothering me for a few weeks… so after a short wait, 5 position x-ray, and a very long wait – the doctor said … there’s no bone damage, take some ibuprofen and here’s a script for High Blood Pressure… my BP was 192 over 89 which my wife says is scary high on the top number somewhat high on the lower number… *(her step-dad is a nurse)

My followup is in 4 weeks… we’ll see what happens with the BP… I did a 3 week trial of Blood pressure medicine in September 2006 and my wife said that it made me feel better and have a better attitude… so I’m going to start a “feelings journal” and I may even post some of my feelings here… if anyone cares
