Venting

Okay. Still figuring this whole blog thing out. Is it going to be funny, serious, editorial, pages and pages of stories about the little man? I don't know, and that has kept me from posting. That, and the fact that I feel like I have so many thoughts and ideas to put out there right now keep from doing anything at all. Plus I really want music on my page and I don't know how to do it.
For those of you that don' know, I'm a worrier. It's a horrible habit. I have tried many times to break it. Just when I think I've made some progress, here we go again. I have the typical fears of worries of any mother and wife. I want my family to be safe, healthy and happy; however, I worry A LOT about the state of this world. What is going to be left for my son and his children? The selfishness and self-centeredness is suffocating. I call it the "it's my world and your just living in it" syndrome. You can see it everywhere: on the road, at the grocery store, in coversations with friends and neighbors. I mean people actually think that they are so important that they need to read/text and drive at the same time. Who cares if there is a mom with a car full of kids that you could accidentally hit head on! I guess the whole reason this whole attitude of society even worries me is that I don't know how to overcome it or teach my son to overcome it. Does it ever seem easier to just move out into the country, no neighbors, grow your own food, work at the hardware store, go to church on Sunday and just forget about all this other junk? Okay..I'll try to make the next post funny!

  1. Sorry I passed the worry gene to you. It is a hard habit to break. Take a deep breath and ask God to help you with it. REALLY try to release it to HIM!
    It is crazy that everyone is in such a hurry. Our world would be a better place if everyone would slow down & really live! Love ya!!!

  2. I know a great little country town!! :) If you want, click on my music (all the way at the bottom of my page), and there's a place to create your own play list. I can't remember if they walk you through how to put it on your blog, but it's not too hard...call me if you need help! :) Don't worry. Be happy :)
