Turning Over a New Leaf

No More Mr. Mean Guy

I'm turning over a new leaf.  Many of you who read my posts simply hate my guts.  That's okay.  I deserve it.  I rarely have anything kind to say.  I complain about everything and I'm generally unhappy.

I could blame it on too much television.  I could blame George W. Bush.  But I'm going to blame it on my mom.

However, the only one who can fix this is me.  I'm 46 years old and men in my family don't make it past 65 due to heart disease and diabetes.  So I'm figuring I may not have that long of a life ahead of me.

So from now on I'm not going to say a negative thing about anyone or anything.  Even if Obama declares martial law to postpone the election and I get sent to a FEMA camp, I'm going to be pleasant.  I will greet my fellow FEMA camp mates with a smile each and every day.

I'm going to only surround myself with kind people, those who care about others and are positive.  I'm not going to meditate because I think that's gay.

It will be difficult but I think this change will help my indigestion, road rage and general hatred for mankind.

I'm also going to try to find a good church somewhere.  There are so many to choose from but I'll ask around and try a few out.
