Themes that are cringeworthy

I am trying to find new websites, trolling to see if I can find something beyond what I normally read. I am finding that I am coming across things the are moving me into spirituality, though not religion. I came across The Happiness Project's site and this got me to thinking that I have never put the list all in one place. What themes really make me go squishy with dismay? What makes me want to cover my head with a pillow and screw my eyes tight so I don't have to see it? I hadn't ever laid it all out what are the situations/themes/traits that make me cringe. Here is the list I have come up with thus far:

Weakness
Thoughtless-ness
Carelessness
Selfishness
Rigidity
lack of empathy and sympathy
Injustice
lack of follow through
Snottiness
Intolerance
Ugliness
Repression
Suppression
Mis-communication


This is not to say that I am perfect. I am so very far from perfect. It is hard to stay centered all the time and not let feelings sneak up on me that are less than zen. Or even to say that I have the best follow through. I am terrible with the follow through, and this is why these are the things that drive me particularly crazy. I can be amazingly selfish at times, but I strive to be better than that. I am trying hard to be aware of those around me and their struggles, and I think I remember most of the time to take that into consideration when dealing with someone else's drama. I am a work in progress, I am evolving, but I wonder when it will be natural to me and how I will know when I am there?

Fist post back

I get these blocks sometimes. The muse leaves and whatever creative juices I had are gone. It is always at a most critical moment too. I'm working on it, and here is the blog post to prove it. I am just going to post a few things as they go through my head. They are sure to be disjointed and have no bearing on one another, but that is the way I think.

It had been so long since I had been to my own blog, that I had to find a post I'd made on a site to link back to it. That is very sad. I should know the web address by heart. Then again, I have a really hard time remembering the password to my online bank account.

I thought this map was pretty. A little scary too when I think about the fact that I like all those fast food places. I know that the food is terrible for my body, but those french fries. Why does Ronald McDonald have to be such and excellent chef? Yum...

This is my friend, Peyton's review of Alice in Wonderland from Facebook:

I saw it last night. And...I didn't like it. I really need hollywood to allow the female actors to eat. Why didn't Tim Burton just use skeletons, they have the same color/body style/shape as the actors?" It totally made me laugh!
