Going the Distance... RPT

And the Diagnosis is.....
Who needs doctors when you have the internet at your finger tips? I’m sure that I could Google how to perform surgery, and it would give me multiple sites that show you how to perform any given surgery. However, I would never do that because it would be stupid. But type in any little unusual aches or pains that you may have and somewhere you will find the answers, the possible causes, possible name of your pain, treatments, and so on.
I have this new, hobby that keeps me busy during my spare time at work. Whenever I don’t feel 100% or something is hurting that doesn’t normally hurt, I Google it, or use Web MD. For instance, my shoulder bothers me occasionally for days at a time and at night, but it will go away. So yesterday I decided to do some research. I was able to narrow it down because of the kind of pain and the location of the pain. I am pretty sure that if I were to go to the doctor he would tell me the exact thing that the internet did. The only difference is he would be able to prescribe me something or tell me how to fix it. If only they could prescribe things to you on the internet, but I guess that wouldn’t be a very good idea because doctors would be out of job and people would be getting high as a kite off of prescription drugs. But it is nice to have an idea of what MIGHT be going on before you go into the doctor. Better yet find out what you can do before you make that appointment to see the doctor.
That being said, here is my diagnosis…

The Kids
Wednesday, October 13, 2010
I have been thinking a lot, lately, about the kind of person I am and the kind of person I want to be. In my own personal opinion I consider myself to be a pretty nice, funny, sweet, caring, loving, and all around good person. However, I realize that sometimes I'm not always that way, and there are things that I really need to work on.
So during the past week, this has been on my mind more and more. I have been trying to think of ways to better my life, and myself as a person. So of course I thought of a few things, and I as I was reading my book "A Single Voice" last night I decided that I should probably really try to work on all the things that I had come up with. For example being a little nicer to everyone and controlling the mean thoughts that go through my head about people that irritate me, just to name a few. All simple things, yes?
Today, I get to work and find that although I am trying to keep mean thoughts about irritating people out of my head, its NOT so easy and it is going to take work. Making those changes in your life, however simple they may seem, is not always easy. I am human and I make mistakes. I have a lot to work on to better myself, but I am determined. I have some small changes and some big changes to make, to reach this goal that I have set, and it will take time but I know in the long run that it will be so worth it.
Lately especially this seems to be an important thing for me to do. With so many controversial things going on in the world, it is important that we all learn to be accepting of others no matter how annoying they may be or maybe if you disagree about their views on life.
So...... Wish me luck :)
