Same Old Same Old

Even On The Opposite Corner Of The US

Every morning it’s the same old thing. Isn’t it.

Habit. Routine. Maybe even drudgery.

Wake up. Go to the bathroom. Come back. Get down on my knees. Say three prayers. The same three.

All day long, be nice to people. Use your manners. Do a little more than others expect. Be thankful. Be happy. Brush your teeth. Laugh.

Never get bored with the basics.

1st, 3rd, & 43rd In The World (2009)

No new world record here, not by a long shot.

But a personal record, yes.

Do you keep track?

Or does each day start the same?

Going through the motions?

Ever think about how you prepare for your day?

Going through the motions? Wake up, shower, dress, jump in the car and off we go.

Lemmings. The migratory animals that follow each other and when one jumps off the cliff, the rest follow, one by one.

Humans are like that too. Creatures of habit and heavily influenced by what every one else does.

When will I think for myself and have the courage to not only not jump off the cliff, but to steer clear of the cliff altogether?
