A Key to Understanding Oneself

I found myself asking me one question recently: why?-what were You thinking?

So these are two questions, but the way I asked them, they were one.

The reason was me not understanding my own decisions recently. There were quite a few mistakes I've made by not thinking sufficiently about the possible dangers. One of the biggest was trying to live with two cats under one roof. The trick is that this was MY roof. very soon I found myself being angry - I was the alpha male in that herd and so I felt it was MY right to make a mess under that roof - the cats did not agree. The war started...

...and came to a sudden and rather unexpected end.

it appeared I was allergic... the cats must go.

But i did some preparations, I've come to some costs just to prove that in the end the decision wasn't thought over. At least I don't have to worry - those little menaces went to good families. None of them happened to meet chinese cuisine. (har... har... har... )

but there were more decisions I should think over more ...

Well, when the temporary troubles pass, I'll ned to do the bodycount and the damage report, and take my lesson. Till then - taking care for the less loss.

One Has to Love One's Uncle

One of many - completely ununderstandable thoughts that have recently crossed my mind.

My Uncle - an educated man - has a very inspiring sense of humor. Ever since I was a little boy, whenever I went to visit him and his family (and mine too) - and that usually happened during summer break - he gave me some "responsible" tasks. Cut the wood, mow the lawn, clean the house, wash the car - the usual things I could be forced to do at home instead of having a little piece of Vacation. The trick with him was, that he never said it was a punishment or anything of the kind. It usually happened the other way. We've been very calm and polite - my and my cousins - and so said our Grandma. Uncle came and said - oh really? then, as a reward You can bring the water from the well and mow the lawn.

And that is exactly, how it happened every time. An appropriate stress of the "You can" part and it worked miracles.

Maybe I should apply the method to my doings?

There It Goes

A New Year came.. an Old one went away. My nose's running just as it was in the older days.
I can't see a change.
There is however a New Hope.
Yes Young Master - New Chances have You will. New people You meet and New troubles fight Will You.

We'll live we'll judge.

Now I'm going back to bed.. to get better ...
well.. to get well even...

Have a Nicer Year, You.
