This I believe revisited

This I believe re-visited.

Its fall and there are projects I want to do. The kids and I have a Book in the works and I would like to sit down and bang that thing out and get it submitted for publication.  Life is so crazy busy with soccer games and volley ball games, work, kids and exercise.

Anyway, within this context I truly believe we still must live this chaotic life within the contexts and axioms that guide your basic thinking and philosophies.  We saunter around this so called life with expectations thrust upon our self and while these expectations are important probably the most important expectation that exists are self imposed.

We were discussing this yesterday as we as a country see every other person in therapy, going yoga and going to the chiropractor is a common thing, we start the day with a double espresso that some corporate giant decided we needed and then we decided we needed.  When you look at Maslows’ hierarchy of needs I am not sure where these actions do really fit in.  Somehow their hierarchy of needs shifted radically for the survivors of Hurricanes, those entrenched in the battle in Iraq and  those with life altering illnesses.

I have no idea my point here, but I believe we choose what we truly believe guide our lives and these are items we are less likely to compromise on. This is a work in process and for now I am taking a break as I have to get back to my “job” so that I do receive a paycheck and I can go about satisfying some lower level needs for myself and my family.
