Click to see how common foods can be deadly
Spoiler Alert- I can spend my whole life not smoking, exercise, and “eat the right food but if I eat one crushed cherry pit it could be a a trip up to that stairwell to (G-D willing) -heaven.
Don’t worry this isn’t a zoophilia post. It just fascinating why a Capitalist like myself is in love with such a lazy creature that costs me so much more then they can produce (unless they have some acting talent). I believe it is because of the intangible assets that they bring to the table. These gifts (below) can’t be measure in dollars.
Please add your own reasons.
(1) Humor- Dogs behavior can be hysterical and there jokes(actions) never become old.
(2) Playfulness- While children get older and no longer play those childhood games dogs are always into a game of catch or running around the house.
(3) Sincerity- Dogs always appear naked to the world literally (sometimes though you can get them a cool outfit) and figuratively.
(4) Simplicity- It doesn’t take much for a dog to be happy just a piece of chicken will do
(5) Dress Up- They look great in all different wardrobe combinations.
(6) Loyalty- While others might find your activities less then exciting a dog will sit by watching you as if ever word you wrote was golden.
(7) Unconditional Love- You don’t have to worry about apologizing to your dog or buying he/she a gift to regain their love when you screw up.

Sometimes I feel that I’m pulled in some many different directions that make it appear that I can’t fully accomplish any of my goals. If only I had a clone. My clone could go to all the boring board meetings and worry about my social side while I conduct the business at hand. Yes of course I would give my clone a break and we’d switch but not until I completed my work.
If anyone could build me a clone before this Wednesday it would greatly help in my endeavors. This Wednesday I have a full day of work, then I have an amazing dinner event in NYC while at the same time I have to go to a College Fair for my daughter and be at a board meeting for my Shul. Come to think of it I’ll need two Clones for this Wednesday. Hey it’s nice to dream until then I struggle through it all.
I just love this picture.
The stupid instinct leads us to do something that we know is going to hurt us but we still do it. For example the first time someone smokes a cigarette or takes illegal drugs what makes them commit this act? Is it the peer pressure that is brought upon them? Is it the feeling of invincibility or rebellion against society? Here are just a few examples of how we can battle it.
(1) Understand yourself- your strengths and weaknesses
(A) If you are the rebellious type do a rebellious activity that doesn’t hurt yourself or others. Try sky-diving, going to a wild concert (no drugs included), having purple hair but don’t hurt yourself.
(B) If you get depressed easily find an activity that is peaceful and fun for you (write, read, paint, sing) and/or get treatment for those emotions that bring you down just don’t hurt yourself
(C) If you are lonely and feel that you don’t belong. Join a Meetup group or Facebook group that you have a passion for (ex cooking, Medieval Times, Star Wars etc) . You are a wonderful person so try your best to enjoy life.
(D) If you feel invincible then get involved in your local Church or Shul. Go rock climbing, skydiving, or get involved in an X game activity. Take risks that are fun but not deadly.
I’ve never been the type of person that would try to make plans in the last minute and also felt insecure asking for help, that was until last night. Last night I noticed that my son got a call from a young lady asking him to go to a movie, that was to begin in an hour. In an hour? Forget the thought of a woman calling to ask a man out that was strange enough but what truly was bizarre is that she asked at the last minute. How many Saturday’s nights did I stay alone in my house as a teen all because I was intimidated that it would look desperate if I called a friend in the last minute. I’d rather suffer the loneliness then feel I was desperate. Wow what a waste of time.
This young lady has inspired me to not only be less intimidated to ask people out for a social engagement but also ask people to get involved as well. I realize insecurities can make us afraid to engage others and then we suffer as whole. I for one am going to make a greater effort to fight these feelings so that I can not only truly enjoy the company of others but insure that we as as group can exceed the expectations others have of us.
