The power of a Good Feeling

The power of a Good Feeling

 

Workdays can carry a natural routine if you let them; we get up, get ready and go to ‘work,’ sometimes without thinking. Sure, some of us stop by the local coffee shop or slam an energy drink to get a jumpstart but end up in the same place. We have time off with holidays while begging for that week of vacation that never seems to come and goes by too fast.

     Does the above sound like you and your situation or are you loving your job and getting up early to be at work? If you are early, you may have the power of a good feeling. Some say attitude, some say outlook, but when you walk into work, are people happy to see you or do they look away? Kinda scary to think about…are you worried now?

     Your situation is yours; own it as you own your most valued possession. Do what you will but you cannot get away from it so it may as well be positive for you. If you are still reading this, chances are you are already a Good Feeling person full of life possessing a drive to succeed in being happy. I’m speaking to you at this moment.

     Starting tomorrow, go out of your way to spread your good feelings with someone you care about or someone needing to be lifted. They are not hard to find. Share with them a new joke, a short story or famous inspirational quote to help them through their day. The change in them will change you and the proverbial ball will continue to roll as you move about your day. When the alarm clock sounds tomorrow, choose that opportunity to take your good feeling Up One Level.

Healthcare in California

     Healthcare for everyone living in the United States, has been, and will be a topic for discussion lasting the next 10 years. Will it happen, will it succeed and are we as a nation better off for having access to doctors and hospitals?

     The ethical, ‘feel good’ answer is everyone should be able to get quality care regardless of income level. However, the cost for this future addition to the Standard of Living could take other things away from the general population. The money has to come from somewhere and contrary to government thinking, money cannot just be printed in abundance. So is the money taken from the schools? From Social Security? Unemployment Fund? Military and Defense? Will gas and oil be taxed at a higher rate so we pay more at the pump?

     Taxing the rich to pay for the poor is not the answer. Taxes are seen as punishments and if you punish someone for doing well they are less likely to continue the behavior; at least continue the behavior in a lawful way. Something has to change and with the National Debt growing to unfathomable levels the chance of paying it off while incurring another major expense is slim to none.

    Pray for the strength and wisdom for our government leaders. Pray they are able to make the right decisions for our country as a whole. However, regardless of their decisions, make sure you make your voice heard. Do not stand by and let things happen to you and your country you do not approve. Get out and get educated and then vote! Information is available but make sure you are talking to an expert to get all the facts.
