Things never go exactly according to plan do they?  This has been my year to finely hone patience, tolerance and unconditional acceptance apparently.  My life (or so I thought) previously contained high levels of understanding and non judgmental actions.  This was not enough so real, true life exercises have been put in place and executed to teach me and further broaden my capabilities to accept 'ALL' individuals despite their obvious and potentially hurtful shortcomings.  Strange things are happening as I inch closer to the BiG 35!  Keeping true to form I indeed spent much time contemplating while focusing inwards into my self to perhaps understand why I have not been successful at allowing liars, thieves and complete self-serving idiots into my life.  This world is filled with color, wonder and amazement's that will never be recreated but also with the lovely things in life come not so attractive entities and scenarios.  People go through tough situations everyday across the globe and each person could tell you their problems, hardships and situations are far worse than can be understood.  When an individual makes choices they really are involving persons around them in those outcomes.  Believe it or not everything has an outcome that is not as personal as one may think. Making poor choices that will certainly lead to disappointment, pain and potential 3rd party suffering is indeed along the lines of being a jerk.  Life goes on and things change by the millisecond but setting oneself up for negative outcomes while focusing on very little positive egotistic return is an act that I prefer to not be around.  Now that being said its a great day to be outside cooking some #porkribs...Who's Hungry?
