Life and relationships are a lot like sugar cookies. Have you ever bought one of those beautiful sugar cookies from the bakery and they taste just like cardboard covered by crisco mixed with some food coloring. Yucky!!! They look good on the outside and require no work on your part but they are crappy to choke down. Well marriage and family relationships are kinda the same. If it looks good on the outside but you put no work into it it's gonna be crappy on the inside.
Which brings me right to my next though. If God wanted us to get married and have children and families and all get along, why didn't he make men and women so we think more alike, children so they come with schedules, manners, and good behavior in public. I've thought about this one a lot. At first I was thinking it's not fair and it's not right. But the more I thought about it the more I began to think, first of all I don't believe we were sent down here to skate by. We are supposed to be learning and growing. If you don't work at something there will be no growth, and also if you have to work for something the reward is that much sweeter. So I guess my though on this is marriage and family wasn't meant to be easy. We need to work at it so we can grow. When you get a sticky hug and a chocolate kiss it's all the more sweeter because you have been needing an affirmation all day that the sticky little monster running around the house pouring syrup on the dog loves you in spite of being on time out 3 times before 9 A.M. When your teenage mutant ninja stranger asks if you can have a talk you'll be thankful that they want to confide in you and ask for your opinion even if it's two o'clock in the morning. When the stranger your married to dances you clumsily around the kitchen you'll appreciate this romantic gesture. I guess we were meant to learn and grow together, to work at these relationships and to exercise our love and patience so they will grow.
Next thought the people of Walmart website should be renamed the idiots of Walmart. Why do people think they are the only ones in the store?? You'd think they'd notice the crazed woman muttering obscenities and mentally painting bulls eyes on them where she's gonna ram them with her cart. I don't get road rage much but put me behind a shopping cart and my crazy shines right through. You cannot possibly need two carts completely blocking off the aisle to discuss toilet cleaner with your husband.
Ok now first I have to say I think exercise and keeping fit is great. I think that we all should do some type of physical activity daily but if your pectorals are bigger than your brain I suggest you need to do something besides lift weights. The mere fact that you can bench press a small automobile does not make you a better person than those of us who can't. It just means that you can bench press a small automobile. Period. That's all. How about you work out that brain and personality once in a while.
Ok just some random thoughts brought on by lack of sleep. Hopefully if you take time to read this it brings on some random thinking in you too. The world needs more delirious geniuses. I can't possibly take it on all by my self.
Spread your piggy wings and fly my friends. You will never know what awaits you until you try.
