Best Life 2010 Day 2029: I almost forgot!

I was laying in bed asking myself if I'd posted my blog for the day, and I couldn't recall; turns out...I hadn't!

Let me share with you a thought I've had rolling around in my head lately, that I will probably write an article about very soon.

If something is scaring you, *especially * in the area of relationships, I can tell you why that is:

Things only get scary when you try and look too far into the future.

Inevitably, you reach a point that you can't see past, and don't know what's going to happen. In truth, you NEVER know what's going to happen, but we like to fool ourselves into thinking we do. And yet, when you hit that unknown point, panic sets in.

What if he doesn't call? What if she doesn't like me? What if he proposes, or doesn't propose? What if she doesn't want kids?
What if I can't get a job? What if I get a job and hate it?

Blah, blah, blah.

The solution, then, is to focus on the NOW. Do all you can to prepare, and turn over the rest of to God and the Universe to sort out on your behalf.
If things are working now, keep doing them. If they aren't, change them.

And remember:
Never give up, never give up, never ever ever give up.
