Say it like you feel…

Here I am, my own little Café. What’s to say on the inauguration? So I've seen plenty of sites out there focused on relaxation, stress relief, and other strategies to get you out of a funk. Don’t get me wrong; they are great, and very helpful. However, sometimes we all need to express our frustrations and loosen the restraints of censorship a bit (in a safe mode, of course). Not everyday is a perfect day and being able to express how it makes us feel without a load of restraints is a great stress reliever. No, I’m not cranky all the time… Face it! Nothing bad lasts forever, but nothing good lasts forever either. But I think we’ve been taught to keep it all on the down low, to suppress bad feelings and pretend that everything is hunky-dory. So you’re forty and still haven’t found what you were looking for; so you made the wrong career choice; you’re dead broke, have a few regrets, or cheated on your diet… Whatever it is, it’s not the end of the world; the sun will still come up, and no, we don’t have to have it all figured out all the time. Yet, nobody talks about this because society is, most of the time, superficial, shallow, & filled with a whole bunch of people trying hard to keep up with the Joneses. “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.” I say it like it is! There… I said it! So what’s the weather forecast for today? I really don’t know. Whatever it is, I’ll deal with it. But it’s looking sunny outside and I have to get going. A new day full of experiences awaits me. In case somebody shows up, have a good one. Carpe diem!

Cheers,
