The Simple Things
Ask someone who has a disease that is potentially life threatening and they will tell you what is important in your living existence because they have faced their own mortality and developed clarity of life purpose and gratitude.
They will tell you about the detail they now notice in nature and the pleasure they get from simply walking outdoors on a wonderful sunny day. These people are bombarded with sensory awareness that the average person in a hurry up living pattern rushes right past.
In their haste they take the beauty of life and the living experience for granted especially when young and expecting to have many days and years of future living.
If you want to truly and instantly enrich your living experience visit with someone that now lives life for the sake of the living experience instead of a future vision of retirement or what might be.
There is no guarantee that you have more days left than they do.

Whats This About Miley Cyrus
One curious story in the swirl of chaotic news I noticed this morning was the story on provocative photos taken of Miley Cyrus and released into the public media by a major publication. These pictures were scheduled in a formal photo shoot with a highly acclaimed photographer.
However, now young Miley Cyrus finds herself having to apologize for the decisions and actions of the adults around her. What?
How could the general public cast any judgmental eye on a young person who was following the direction of a group of adults in a situation designed and controlled by those adults?
It is simply amazing to see and hear how we place people under the social microscope these days. The focus and degree of criticism that is leveled at others and the way they live.
I have been to such photo sessions before and it is highly unlikely that Miley Cyrus had any idea what the final product would look like and how those photos would be presented or captioned until the very last minute. By then it would be too late and the article would have gone to press and distribution.
She was most likely told how wonderful the pictures were going to be and trusted the adults involved to follow a proper pattern in presenting her in the best manner.
Let’s stop for a minute and collect ourselves. Get a grip on the reality of actuality and learn to point our fingers and direct our focus to the real source of any concerns and not just look at the person and face at the top of the pyramid.

The Reason for the Storm
There are definite patterns to human behavior and after a while the same questions begin to emerge. I was recently asked again on how to best control a young child in the process of a temper tantrum.
You don’t control a child or anyone else during an outburst of emotional frustration. In fact, you can’t even communicate with them.
This person is imbalanced with anger and confusion and pushing or pulling them will accomplish little and most likely upset them even more.
The first and most important step is to calm the child down and establish a slow easy pace of thought and talk. Reassure the child that you have their best intentions in mind and then slowly find out what they really want.
Most of the time the entire situation was simply aimed at getting someone to pay attention to a need or desire the child had at that moment.
- Ask them questions about what they want.
- Ask them why they want it.
They are usually angry because they cannot identify or understand a reason WHY they cannot have what they want.
Reason with them when you know they cannot or will not get what they want. Children often want without reason. This is because they have yet to develop reasoning skills. Reason for them and explain why they cannot get what they want.
Once they understand and can identify the reasoning they often go on with life and abandon the angry attitude.
