The yellow brick road

Follow your heart? Or follow your head? Follow your instincts? Follow the leader? Follow suit? Hell....Follow the yellow brick road!  Who or what am I suppose to follow? And why do I have to follow anything?  There is no book on this stuff. I wish there was sometimes. My horoscope tells me I am a leader not a follower...So I WILL DECIDE what to follow.

I have learned there is no right answers. NONE! Because we will never know what would have happened had we taken a different path or made a different decision. Because (I believe) if we change one thing it causes everything else to change. For example...If you were going to pick dog number 8 to win the race and chose 4 instead and 8 won, well had you chose 8 he probably wouldn't have won. You get my point. We will never know how things would have played out had we done things differently. In this case you would have had to "follow your instincts".

Following your head will get you in trouble too. This is where we OVER analyze everything. Like there is a right or wrong answer to everything. And there is just NOT! We will second guess ourselves and kick our own asses if things don't work out right after all our carefully calculated decisions to take that other job or sell our house OR trade in our cars! I love my KIA and don't regret it for a second :) It makes me smile and that is the point.

So I think the answer really is to not worry so much about whats right and wrong but enjoy the moment you are happy you made that decision. Hell if it don't work out kick yourself then! But don't spend all your time wondering and worrying about your judgment. We shouldn't  be so hard on ourselves. Don't worry about the destination and enjoy the ride. If you don't like the destination once you get there you can keep going and CHANGE IT!

In the long run I think nothing  really matters except where our heart is in this life. This is all just stuff!


Me on a good day.
Oh, I have bad ones too

And I believe we are all here for each other. What other reason could there be? I mean really? To save the freagin' trees?? Really? Really? Help someone today. Smile at someone. Do something you wouldn't normally do (something nice) I don't mean rob a bank!!  Things can always be worse. So freagin' CHEER UP. And make a decision. Wrong or right. JUST DO IT. My friend says if you don't know what to do, don't do anything...I don't know. Seems like you'd always be sitting in the same place if you did nothing. I say...your gonna be doing something anyway....so DO SOMETHING :)

Which brings me to the "Yellow brick road".  Where the hell is that road? AND who the hell is the wizard?

Look up

The things we can't see. It's hard to believe in something we cant see. Or we don't understand. Or even something we do see that's so strangely beautiful we wonder who made it possible.

The electricity works. It makes all kinds of things work, yet most of us don't know how. And all the newest technology who could possibly understand how that works. But it does and we don't think about it for more than a second. We just trust that it will all work. Better yet we don't even really care what makes it work.

Look at the spots inside



In the spring trees grow leaves and flowers bloom, the air starts to warm and the rain falls. And yes there is a scientific explanation for it all. But look closely at that flower and how fragile and uniquely beautiful it is.

Who can explain that? Who or what is responsible for that?







The earth could just turn and the sun shine in the morning and fade in the evening. But it doesn't it has a face. Some mornings the daybreak and sunrises are so bright and exciting. Other days its a low lit, calming effect. Then the sunset shows it many faces with aw. How many times have we looked at it and said to our partner ..LOOK!
What about the moon its been so dramatic we've had to get on the phone and tell our friends to look at the moon!


When we have had very close calls in life. Don't you wonder what, why or who saved your ass? 



A Volcano from an airplane looks amazing, but then I looked up
instead of down. I wondered what else was out there.....

Next time you fly in an airplane and look down at that small world of people, trees, cars, mountains, volcanoes and life on earth. Think about this....Look up! I think there is always something bigger, we just cant see it.




What about an ant?
The sun shines on him....he trusts that it will,
but he cant see it !!
