Positive Purpose Within A Chain Letter?

The Meaning of Color & your B-Day
I recently got this in an email...  I don't care for those that say things like "for this to work, you must... invite all your friends/ share this to... " I personally, prefer the more positive sides/ aspects of sharing and would rather leave such decisions of what/ if to share, to you.
Therefore, I decided to change something about the answer to question #9.
Hope you like it.

Quoiting from the email:

9. This wish"
This is where I cut in... (^^^)Pur

9. This wish can come true if:
a) You believe it can actually happen - ENVISION it!!! Feel free to ask yourself Q's like: What would it "be" like? ALL 5 senses to be included here. Feel free to write a list.
 
b) Look deeper into all the steps listed in a), and find out the "tree" of steps/ options to gaining more "ground/ access" to this "Big picture" of this dream (listed as your answer to the Q #9a) above). Feel free to write a list.

c) Time to "break down" steps listed in b), into steps that can be taken EACH DAY! A great example is our "carbon footprints" on our planet that we make each day. What "eco-friendly" steps do we take? ACTION is needed NOW!

BONUS
d) Make a list for each of the above with YOU in mind. Not what "should be", unless you are willing to be one to do so yourself. But what is relevant to you/ your own life. Including everyone in it that can/ does influence you, as this may take affect throughout your decisions.
Take a look at what you could achieve!!! It's up to you from here where it takes you... Life can be tricky, where are we going??? I am currently still "working on this" myself.

Sincerely,

Our Enemies Within - Part 2

Hello,
As I continue this blog in regards to our Inner Demons, I also continue speaking indirectly of friendship. Today I am speaking directly about a status post from a friend of mine - Jenn P. who said "fear is a clusterf***er. Bump it off the way, and Joy follows..."
My first response to this became too long, and I decided it's better shared here.:

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS SUBJECT
Absolutely sista!!!
+
This reminds me of  some wise words spoken in a Bruce Lee  movie, that basically say... "There are 3 inner demons - hate, fear, and anger."
My belief:
This is much more true than some may realize; and as such, some of my friends have called this the "black/ dark" side of our "human nature/ souls". It is up to each of us in our world to learn & practiced ways to rid ourselves of these, and I am no exception. (just being honest)
My observance:
Conflict resolution/ anger management classes are not always the "solution" we may be looking for, or may be the "hidden starting of a solution". Some of us have gone more than once; as it is usually out of frustrations and thoughts of the classes "not working".
It's not always easy to remember the practice examples given, or to remind ourselves to practice them during these moments. If we can realize when these emotions are "running amuk/ taking over", then it is easier to remember & practice them.  To "identify the problem" while it's happening/ before it begins, is not an easy task.
My perspective:
It's precisely this not remembering to practice/ thinking during the "heat of the moment", that is our biggest challenge and partial to all three of our inner demons listed above. With all this going on, it may seem overwhelming. Time to take a breather, and relax. As I have blogged of this in my previous blog "Our Enemies Within - Part 1", thinking of how we want to be treated by others can help us to become better friends - not only to ourselves, but others also.

Until next time!
Take care & Safe travels!
Sincerely,
Chris S. (*@^@*)
