computer guruette I am NOT.....

Argh.......while I love to write and post here, I thought I should get with the program and start to make some money from this blog........hey, other people do this and do it quite well, I thought, I should get with the program.

So I have registered for Adsense....you know....where there are ads on the sidebar of the site and when people click on them you, from the use of your site....ie this blog....will be compensated for allowing these ads to run. Simple.......right? However, I am just not a techno wiz of any sort and while I think I started to get the whole ball rolling, nothing, and I mean NOTHING is showing up yet. I am saying YET because I just know that there is simply one little switch that I need to flick to get the whole thing started. But where oh where is the switch.

Where is Corinna when I need her?

I'll be back later with an update or perhaps you will actually the results of my trial and errors right here very soon. Please.....very soon.............weak little grin.

good night's sleep and profoundity

I don't even know if "profoundity" is a real work but I had promised that after a good night's sleep I would probably have something profound to share with you all. So now, where on earth is my profound file?

Let's just see where this goes. I did sleep well - perhaps more than well since I didn't even move the entire night. Got up and did a nice long stretch and went "oh oh"......a muscle was screaming at me for attention and then it just went arph.........major owie. What's with this anyway? I finally get to sleep all the through the night, wake up to gorgeous sunshine and then my back decides to complain. It if isn't one thing, it is always something else and that is something I can sink my teeth into. Here we go............

Why is it that so many of us seem to always have something that doesn't feel right...whether it is a pain in the body, a problem with a friend or relative, something not quite right with where we live and on and on and on? Seems that we humans tend to want to find something to complain about or seek it out like we are programmed to have constant problems to face. I sincerely doubt that we are hard wired to be this way. Feeling that there has to be something wrong with life, instead of just accepting things as they are. A friend of mine the other day uttered the following little ditty....

It doesn't matter how many IF'S there are in the world, it only matters what IS.

I found that to be rather profound and as she sat there with this silly grin on her face, I went to make a point of writing that down. For it is so true when we stop to think about.

And what IS is that this is the life we have right here and right now and no matter how many times you utter "If I only had this" or "If I did this" or "If he or she would change", you get the picture......none of it matters one iota, all that matters is that right now is what IS and that is what you have to work with.

So this little twinge in my back will surely be gone in a couple of hours and all that is on my plate today will be attended to to the best of my ability and that will be PERFECT in this now IS moment.

I know that I have been rather stressed.......for most of my life actually even when I thought I wasn't.......so I refuse to use that as an excuse for this current little glitch. Accepting my life as it is right now is not that hard to do when I allow myself to step outside of myself and just be with what is. I have never been one to follow the pack and of course, now that I am no longer in my 20's or 30's or - never mind - I am older so why on earth would I think that I could just stop being me in all my unique glory. I'm not going to and nor should you. Unless of course you are doing something that is harmful to you or others. THAT will never do.

But, if you are simply being your own unique you, embrace her or him and be good with it all. I know that my uniqueness has led me to this moment in time and what IS just simply IS.

What do you think?

Have a wonderful joy filled day and know that you are a blessing to us all.

Namaste
