What We Do Matters!

Happy Sunday, this is Kris wishing you a great day today. Hope everything has been going well.

I want to go in a different direction. I want to get away from some of the sad stories that I have been talking about, like incest and rape.  Those can bring us down for sure.

I want to talk about the effect our actions have on everything around us. Sometimes we think in our day-to-day interactions with each other that most things do not matter, when in reality they really do.

Each little thing that we do has an influence on everything and everyone around us.

There is a wonderful story that I want to tell you so just sit back and listen. I am not going to write it down.  It is a starfish tale.

So we need to remember that our actions even though they may seem simple, and people might ask “ what difference does it make.” Everything we do makes a difference.

Every interaction we have with each other affects that life force in some way.  We get to decide if it is good or not by how we interact.

Are we being kind, or are we being a jerk?  Have we said something nice to someone or have we been mean?  Each thing matters.  Each interaction matters.  And remember our words matter just as well.

I am going to tell you another story.  It is about my experience with a store clerk so again you can sit back and relax while I tell my tale.

And that was the end of my going to that store. I felt I did not need to frequent a place where the cashier was going to treat me poorly.  Did my not going back hurt the store.  Probably not, it was a large chain, but perhaps my retelling of the story will enlightened others to not tolerate someone being unkind to them.

We must be mindful in our interactions with others. We need to be aware of how we treat another person as it does matter.  Your actions can influence that person in a good or bad way.  We have that power.

Keep that in mind when you are interacting with your friends and family. Remember that each little interaction that you have has an impact on that relationship. It affects their day. Effects how they may feel for the rest of the day.

If you can think of that and be mindful of being kind and gentle with someone you may have a great day yourself.  I believe what goes around comes around.  We get back what we give out.  

So, for today I want you to have a great day.  Enjoy whatever is going on inside or out and remember that you do have the power to influence others.

Offer a smile or a kind word.  Be a positive influence. Do not be a negative person. Look at your blessings, be glad of what you have today.

Each day is another opportunity to get things right.  We are the directors of our lives. We are the guides on this journey called life.

So, as I always say have a great day today, you and I deserve it. And smile at someone just for today.

Naked Stars Everywhere.

Greetings this is Kris from Lifeview101.com

I am going to go on a tangent tonight because I just can’t take it when every time, I look at Yahoo, some star somewhere is showing me their near naked body. It is like looking at a rag magazine there are so many female would be, used to be, stars. exposing their nakedness. Many of them showing us how at the ripe old age of 30 or 40 or 50 they look wonderful. I want to smack the ones that do the post baby body pictures. As if that is the most important thing they should be thinking about right now. Really!  I don’t give a dam about their bodies, how are the babies doing?

Why do they care about how they look? Why are they constantly flashing naked or near naked pictures at us?  Is it just to get our attention?  Is it just to see our reaction to them being exposed? Are they that insecure?  Do they really need that much attention?   

I am appalled every time I look at Yahoo, but I can’t resist. It’s like I just have to look and see what kind of garbage I’m going to be inundated with because that’s what happens five or six or seven times in a row. Some star or some social media star posing naked.

I can’t stand it. Why do they feel that they have to do this in this day and age when we’re talking about the “ Me too movement” along with all the stories about the many mentors, coaches, and others molesting innocent people. And all the violence that is going on.

Why do these women think that they need to show us their body?  Are they doing it to make themselves feel worth wild, as if we don’t care about who they are unless they’re standing there half naked?

I say it’s got to stop. These women have got to stop feeding into the fact that their bodies are more important than the person who they really have become.

What about their brain? Not one of them has shown or highlighted for us what wonderful things they have done for anybody or any community. Here are these rich women and they care more about flaunting their six pack everywhere, and then they care about doing anything great. There is not a damn word written about what outstanding things they’ve done for children or battered women or cancer patients or old women that need help to retire like myself.

No, it’s just another naked picture, after another naked picture of themselves. Why can’t they see people need help?  Right now there are so many stories about some newscaster, another teacher, another coach, another Hollywood mongrel who has abused someone under their care, and all the these stars care about are how they “still have their beach bodies.”

Naked?

Now I understand it is their right, it is their body, they can do with it what they want, I understand that saying, but you must remember that part of the sexual attraction between human beings for most of us is how that other person looks. We use our eyes, our touch, our sense of smell to become aroused in order to mate, that is what nature intended when we see a beautiful body male or female.

You cannot tell me there isn’t someone, somewhere who isn’t getting aroused looking at JLo’s six pack, or her slithering down a pole. Or seeing Beyonce’s breast, or someone’s neither regions peaking through a see-through outfit. You cannot tell me that isn’t stimulating someone’s libido. What idiot would believe that is not happening?

Do you not think there are things going on in the dark with them on the big screen?  If you think that you are a fool.

But here is my question, what happens to the beast you have aroused in your state of near nakedness if there is no one to soothe them.  Who will get the brunt of that energy? 

My point is your near nakedness, or naked pictures are stirring up some fiend somewhere. When you think of the masses that look at Yahoo in these places, imagine the number of people doing things in the dark that we don’t want to imagine.

I am not trying to be crude; I’m not trying to be cruel, but these are images that are stirring up desire in people. How can they not? These are beautiful women showing everything they have to show.

I want to tell you that statistics show us that sexual trauma, sexual abuse, sexual molestation are happening all the time. The numbers are  staggering and are constantly growing.  I looked up a site and one site said that every 9 minutes a child is being molested by someone they know and love.

I want you to hear this again, EVERY 9 minutes a child somewhere in this country is being molested by someone they know and trusted.’

Isn’t she a doll. She felt so pretty.

Doesn’t that make you gag! Now I’m not saying these people posing nearly nude on Yahoo are causing that, or it’s their fault, but when you stand there posing naked, or near naked, I think that is definitely a mixed message.

Yes, you have the “right” to dress how you want, but you cannot expect to not cause a reaction when any normal human would have a reaction.  I think in some dark place within you that is what you are hoping to occur. You want to show people you have the “power.”

I do not know how you cannot expect someone, somewhere to become aroused when your lovely body is on display for everyone’s viewing pleasure. When you stand and flash pictures of being naked.

I don’t know how you cannot expect people to become aroused when our eyes are part of the sexual arousal makeup of human beings.

So, what is your point in posing nude? What is your point showing us your beach bodies again? What is your point in flashing your breast or butts or whatever else you are showing off.

What is the dam point? Are they trying to make us fatties feel bad?  Are they trying to make us ugly ducklings feel uglier?  Are they trying to show us that the good in our heart is worthless if you do not have a six pack.

What gratification are they getting out of flashing us? Are they really that insecure?  Do they think that no one will notice them if they are not near naked?

I would like each and every one of them who have posed half naked or naked in the last 30 days to explain to me “what you are gaining from that exposure.” Are you so insecure that you feel you have to flash us pictures of yourself, so we do not forget who you are?

She is so much more than a pretty face.

I want to hear what great things these millionaires are doing for all the people that need help.

I want to hear how they are helping their communities that are suffering right now. All the children that cannot afford to do their school lessons because they do not have computer service at home or because their internet services are mediocre.

I want to hear how they are feeding the hungry.  I want to hear how they are helping single mothers support their children in this time of need.

I want to hear how they have started little companies for our children to find employment at as all the little moms, and pops are closing up, and taking away our teens work force.

Instead of helping all we hear and see are these wealthy stars or semi-stars running around showing their naked bodies “going look at me look at me aren’t I beautiful” when they could be creating jobs for people. When they could be starting companies that would help those in need of work. When they could be starting some kind of grant system to help those who no longer have the funds to support their families.

Let us stop flashing our nakedness around, let us stop thinking that the most important thing about us is our bodies as I feel that is what these women on Yahoo are telling millions of viewers. They are saying that they are so important because they are willing to tone their butts, and chisel their abs.

What about their children, their daughters.? How are they feeling, and how are they going to feel if they get a little baby fat on themselves.?  Are they going to puke in the toilet, are they going to refuse to eat so they can look like mommy and daddy? Remember as the hormones start raging in their teens many new things happen to their bodies. We do not want them ashamed of that, we want them to accept how they look in the moment.  Not how they will look after a tummy tuck.

What are these kids going think is most important? How they look or what they do for the world?

Image if the caterpillar would have cut up his body. We would have missed this.

I think it’s time to stop flaunting your bodies to the world, who gives a “shit,” that is not who we are, that is not what makes us great.

I hope that is not what makes you great, but what can make you great is that you have the ability, the connections, the funds to help so many people.

Instead, you spend hours at the gym toning your abs so that you can flash them on Yahoo. Did you ever think to provide gyms for the many children who have nowhere to go to burn off some of their energy? Do you know that child abuse is on the rise with so many stay at home kids?

You could provide the best computers to those who cannot afford them. You can give musical instruments, lessons. and art supplies to children who show a talent for that kind of gift.

I think it’s time for us as a society to turn away from our self-involvement, from our narcissistic attitudes towards our body and how wonderful we look. We need to turn towards each other and offer a helping hand.

I know that the stars and those other rich folks have worked hard to earn their money. I praise them for their hard work. They have motivated so many with their success stories and what they have accomplished. God has given you a gift. You have the resources available to help so many. I do not care that your name is on some charity somewhere, people do that all the time. But do you know what really happens with the money you give in the name of that charity.  How many of these charities actually help who they say they will help?

Instead of spending hours in a gym somewhere, you could spend hours in your communities, your old hometowns to see what is needed now.

I am sick and tired of looking at it Yahoo and seeing the nudity that is there. That is not all that important in this world, is it?  That is not what is important in the whole scheme of things.  

I want to see you helping children who cannot help themselves. Helping families that are struggling. If each one of you helped a different community, a different town, perhaps the one you grew up in, you would be reaching thousands of people.

She felt so lovely!

Please, I want to ask each and every one of you, can you show something besides your body. Something that young girls and boys can really hope to attain. Washboard abs are not important. Helping a starving family not starve is important.

Let young girls know that they do not need breast the size of watermelons, but instead hearts that size so we can love each other.  They do not need plastic surgery to remove their smile lines, they need to smile and laugh more with their family and friends.

Let them know that it is wonderful to give to others if you have been so blessed. Let us not change our faces, but instead change our attitudes as we are human beings, and we need to love and give to each other.

So, if this message reaches anybody, please pass this on, share this blog cast with others, so that they can help these stars feel confident in themselves. Let them know they do not have to show us their nakedness, we love them anyway. But if they cannot be outperforming and getting all the adoration they need; they can certainly earn it going out in their communities and sharing with the young.

We will still love them, we will still applaud them, please, please help the children, help those that are in need that do not have any food or heat or even a place to live.

Forget how you look, wash your face, put on your dungarees, and come out into the real world. And as I always say on my blog have a great day today you and I deserve it

What would your epithet read, ” here lies a great butt?”

Think About That!

What a beautiful place.

Do you ever think about your telephone and how it works? No, I mean how it really works? How does our voice travel through this device, to another persons device, so that we can communicate? Now don’t give me the electronics of it, the bits and pieces that go into making the phone like, chips, clips and wires. I mean how the hell do the waves travel clear across the world or even just across the street so that we may talk, view information, text, and listen to music.

We as humans have created amazing things. Wonderful things. Sadly, we have lost our wonder at such creations. I work nights and sometimes we get onto these weird topics, I mean really strange as the dark settles in, and our brains expand into the unknown. At least that is how it feels sometimes when we get sleepy and start talking

Do these waves fly through our tiny little cells as they are moving at the speed of light, or whatever speed they are going, do we even know how fast they are going, or do they zoom around us on the trail to your/my device.

There are millions of radio and television stations around the world sending out data at the speed of light or faster into the homes of people thousands of miles apart. How is that even possible? Really! We can’t see the waves, I don’t feel them going through my body, but we know they are there soaring around undeterred.

I was curious about MRIs and how they worked. I got ran over by a speeding pit bull, that’s another story, and I had to have a MRI of my knee. I went into the room and this machine took pictures of the ligaments, muscle and bones in my leg. How was that even possible?

Energy radiates off of everything

Let me tell you how the MRI works. I am a dos for dummy kind of person so I will give you my version. The MRI machine sends out a huge magnetic wave that sets our protons, our protons, the protons in our body spinning like mad, and then it sends out a radio wave that shuts these buggers down, and when they come to a screeching halt they give off a burst of ENERGY. And then the MRI machine takes pictures of that energy which shows the ligaments, muscles and bones. Read this again because it is truly amazing. It takes pictures of the energy given off by these protons when they come to an abrupt halt. And that energy is caught on film.

Doesn’t that boggle your mind? Doesn’t it astound you? It sure does me. I mean it makes our protons, that we can’t even see spin, spin, and then when they slam to a halt they take a picture of the energy they give off. Dam, I mean who thought of this, and how did they think of this. We are talking about going really deep into the microscopic world, energy waves, and the unknown.

There is so much in our world that begs the question, how the hell does this work, and we don’t even get excited. We just continue talking, texting, shopping, and whatever else it is we do.

We really can’t explain the reality of it. We can talk about the bits and pieces that go into making it possible, but we can’t explain how it really is possible. At least not to my satisfaction.

I say we need to get back to the wonder of what we have created. We need to be amazed at what is around us. Let’s open our eyes to the world, and ask the question how does this even work.

Life amazes me, nature and all its creatures makes me catch my breath, it is so amazing. I say we need to tap into that amazement and appreciate what we have in our lives at this moment in time. Share this wonder with your children and family. Talk about these things so they will begin to wonder too. Foster in the young a curiosity about the world around them. They are the next generation of scientists who will expand on all of our creations thus far.

Instead of sitting in front of the television get them out in the world to look and analyze whats before them. Show them how remarkable this planet earth really is. They will be the saviors of our future. We need to open their eyes to the wonder around them. And as I always say, have a great day today. You and I deserve it.

Wow!

The Happiness Factor

Ah dang it, me too.

Well today I am feeling a little down. It happens. Sometimes I go for a couple of weeks and then my mood shifts once again. I have these little pity parties. I bet you do the same thing. The holidays are a hard time for some folks, and for some it is just the day to day stuff that brings us down.

I am feeling down right now because I really just want to retire. Yep, I am sick of the grind, not that I have to work really hard, but it is the monotony of the the day. It is going and doing the same old thing. It is not getting to do the things I really want to do. It is the years whizzing by. I am almost seventy and I know that my time is limited. You would think by this point I would be free to do what I want. Nope. Bad planning on my part. Didn’t save enough money, so I need to keep working.

Take it from me you youngsters and prepare for the time when you want to retire. Save and plan. I did not and now I am stuck working when I wish I was free.

I wrote a book, you can see it on my Market Ste page. I thought that it was going to be my ride out the retirement door. No such luck. I have tried a slew of ways to get my book out to the world, but the world isn’t listening.

I am working on another book because it too is pushing it’s way out of inside of me. I hope to have it out there by spring. This may be another chance at freedom.

Life gives us many little gifts to bring us joy!

So, while I am feeling down in the dumps I also realize that I should not let anything take my happiness away. I saw this mantra on Facebook and it hit home with me.

When we get upset, down in the dumps, or angry with someone we are giving away our happiness. Now I know that sounds like a boat load of crap, but it is true. We can control how we are feeling by first recognizing the feeling then saying to ourselves ” I will not let this/them/you take my happiness away.

I know this is simple, but it really is that simple. When you find yourself pissed off say out loud to yourself, ” I am not letting you take my happiness away” say it several times and really mean it. Our days are too precious to give away. Do not let others control how you feel. Spend the day feeling happiness for that day. We are so lucky to have it.

I am not trying to take away your right to get mad about crap. People and things piss us off. It is part of life. It is real. But we can change the effect it has on us by not letting others make us feel bad. By taking back our happiness we free ourselves to feel better.

When we stay mad we are choosing that feeling. Taking back our happiness is a choice as well. We can feel better if we use this mantra. I have used it many times and it works. I have used it since starting this piece and I am already feeling a little better.

Hey I love you, now open this door.

Don’t give away your happiness. Tell yourself that you will not let someone or something take it away. Look at what is good around you. Let your happiness flow, and for today have a great day, you and I deserve it.

Peace And Quiet

I am not sure how you feel, but for me, it is time for some peace and quiet. I am so ready for all of this political crap to stop. I just want our leaders to move forward and lead this country. It is time to shut up and do the work.

All I can say is we have made history in so many ways. Some I am not too proud of. This country use to be admired, now we are a laughing stock to other countries. It breaks my heart.

For years now we have not had a good candidate for presidency. Bits and pieces of what, of who. I can not believe that our political parties waited until the last minute to start throwing out names and people to lead our country, OUR country.

I think what needs to happen now is that the parties that want to run next term start grooming someone in their party who has the skills and ideals that would represent this country exceeding well. Start teaching, training, encouraging and supporting some young politician somewhere how to be a great leader. Show them what this country stands for, and help them to succeed. Don’t wait until the last moment and grasp at straws!

I don’t know how the news industry will survive, but I would like to see someone, somewhere start a network that will only tell the real truth, not their truth, not the truth that they want to fool us into believing, but the real truth about what is happening in the world. I grew up believing that is how it was done. How foolish of me.

If I could thank president Trump for one thing, it is for opening my eyes to all the lies and half truths that the media has pushed my way. He has shown me how they distort the news with partial stories, fake pictures, and outright lies about life in general. How they exclude the truth when it does not fit their agenda. How they can pick and choose only what they want to show us, or completely shut down someone in the middle of their speech. A president no less. It is all about the all mighty dollar, and the power that comes with it when they have lots, not necessarily what is really going on in this country and it’s leaders.

Another thing that president Trump accomplished is to bring people into the world of politics that maybe weren’t there before. He has opened our eyes to the fact that WE NEED be involved in what is occurring, and challenge what is being shoved down our throats. And he has taught us to expect more from our leaders. Thank you president Trump.

I hope Joe Biden is sincere when he says ” it is time for this country to heal.” we so need that to happen. Let the men and women ELECTED by the people, FOR the people come together on our behalf, not theirs, to return this country and it’s people to a place where pride can shine through, and we can move toward a country that takes care of all it’s people. All the people. All the races. All the colors. All the levels of income. ALL OF THE PEOPLE so help us God. Let’s be ” One Nation Under God, Indivisible with Liberty and Justice for ALL.” Have a great day today, you and I deserve it!!

Their music is so beautiful. This music brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Hauser!! Look at his other great videos on You Tube.
