Schools of Thought, "YARC"

[windwalker]

There is a school of thought that everything happens for a reason. That fate is real and a stabilizing force. Another is that everyting that happens is just random. Still another is that we are part of a divine plan.

It's up to each of us to decide for our selves if our life has purpose. But humor me here and let's say that yes each of us has a role to play in the greater story of mankind.

We have all found ourselves part of an exercise forum. Whatever the reason we are here, we should make the most of it. We have among us a wealth of knowledge about improving our health and perhaps even our outlook on life. We can learn things from each other that we can use ourselves and knowledge we can pass on to others.

You can turn on your Television and see all the bad, no make that horrible, news we can stand. We can turn on our computers and be bombarded by the worst of humanity in the form of porn and scam artists who pray on people who are the most at risk, our children. You constantly hear "high prices and low wages", "Bird Flu, bad tomato in your burger". The list of bad news all around us is endless.

We have a choice, we can let the bad news consume us or we can fill our minds with the positive and the good that is also all around us. We can realize that we can't change all the bad stuff in the world. But we sure can be a positive influence on those around us.

We can show respect for ourselves and others. We can show kindness and we can show caring. We can be positive examples to our families and our friends. We can choose to be happy. We can choose to be healthy. We can choose to be content in our own skin.

Can that make a difference in the price of gas or the fact that there is flooding in the midwest? Probably not but it could make a difference to someone in your circle of friends and family. You just might be a hero to them and not even realize it.

Dear WISH friends I challange each of you to continue to be the positive examples that you are and keep beliveing in the magic. We can and do make a difference.

Definitely! A positive approach to life is so rewarding; where a negative approach not only drags yourself down but everyone around you. The simple things; like good manners, thinking positive, looking for the good in any situation, have a positive affect on our own lives and those around us. As you said, how we live our lives is a choice. We can choose to be positive thinking, caring, well mannered, considerate; or we can choose to be negative, ill mannered, inconsiderate, etc. How we live our lives is a choice. This board represents the positive and I am glad to be a part of it.
