Perpetual Motion

Having to do something you don't want to do drags on all of us. It may be something at work or it could be something that is life and death or it could be just the right thing to do. What ever the reason people don't like doing the hard thing. In Vietnam soldiers had to chop their way through the thickest jungles even though there might have been a road that went to where they were going. The reason being is the enemy would set up mines and ambushes on those roads. Why because of what I just said. Who want's to work 8 hours at something that could be done in 2 hours.

 

It's the same in life. Sometimes the easy way is dotted with ambushes and mind fields. Lets say that you do something ugly to a friend and you just ignore it when what you should have done was take the hard path and apologize. You may think no big deal. You might even think they deserved it but in the end you don't know what will come from your betrayal. Maybe nothing but sooner or later you will pay the piper for acting a certain way even if you don't think that you deserve it or you think it's unfair, it won't matter. You can argue, yell, cuss, stomp your foot but when the dust settles you will still have to suffer the fallout.

 

I by no means am telling you that if you do the right thing that you won't have problems. only a fool would think that. I'm just telling you that you will live and die with the path that you choose. People that always take the easy way usually have a very hard life. The very thing they are trying to avoid.

 

Now I for one always believe in making a job as easy as possible, sometimes referred to work smarter not harder. I am always a fan of that but that's not what we are talking about. Most of the time it will be summed up by doing the right thing even when it's hard. I have known thousands of people in my lifetime and I can honestly say there are not to many situations I haven't seen played out. Tell me what sin you want to commit and I can tell you the downfall. If your honest with yourself I think you already know when your in the wrong.

 

Take it from somebody who doesn't care what you do. I'm just trying to make your life easier. The easier your life is the happier you will be. I don't know if you know anything about perpetual motion but doing the right thing builds on it's self until no one can stand against you. does that sound like a good life or am I just crazy. I can tell you that I'm not happy all the time but damn near. I'm just trying to share the life. I don't know what else I can tell you that would convince you so I won't.
