I’ll drink to that.

Thanks for an uplifting, easy to read post 🙂 Perfect for a Monday morning!

Great stuff, dugg and stumbled, now everyone vote

Lyndon – Thanks for the stumble and submission to digg, I appreciate it.

Anyone know who those two sleeping kids are? *smile*

Oh my god thanks for this. I’m having one of those days.

Hang in there “Decision Strategist” … we all get through them!

I LOVE FREE HUGS!

I will tackle things alone or find a shoulder to cry on. But anyway I know I have to be tough to face every hardships no matter what happened!

Ben,
I used to have days like you’ve described above and my ‘method of escape’ was to ignore them, which, as anyone could surmised, did not solve the problem.

It was a ‘fear of failure’ that had taken hold of me. Once I started facing that problem, rather than running away, I felt so much better.

Yes, it took some time to incorporate this attitude, but once installed, you can’t imagine the peace and tranquility which I have.

Wishing everyone the ability and stamina to make their lives void of angst, and to always have friends/family, to lean on.

Best to you.

Looks like a power point slide. 🙂

Michael — I’m not sure if that’s a compliment or not…

I’m certainly no fan of PowerPoint having spent a great deal of time in it for investor presentations, so it doesn’t FEEL like a compliment. *chuckle*

Powerful post, Ben.

The children are looking good. 🙂

Thanks Rick. That picture was taken on a long weekend vacation when both kids were sleeping. My wife and I had 30 minutes of quiet. It was something…

I’ll tell you what I do, I think about how some people are homeless or without a job or both. Knowing that I am working and have a roof over my head, knowing that I have it a little better than most people usually is enough to make me begin to cope with the “bad days”.

Peaceful greetings from the south coast of Jamaica. May you and yours be abundantly blessed. What a powerful post! I was lead here by a blog posted by Francis Wade. Even with my slow dial up, it was worth waiting for all the pictures to load. My kids and grandkids will be sent the URL for this post. I want them to see it!
Bless Up,
Lady Roots

Lady Roots – I’m glad you enjoyed the post. It was a challenge writing and finding all the pictures, but the style is very rewarding when you publish it.

Ben, one thing you forget may be. Pray… That the best way to solve any problem.
