Nicks Big Adventure

Packing Sucks

USA | Wednesday, 19 October 2011 | Views [265]

Well, I'm back from my trip to Nor Cal safe and happy. It is crunch time and I will now travel to TX via scottsdale and KC to see family. Then I will fly back to wrap stuff up here and leave the following Wednesday. If anybody knows me they know that I am burning the midnight oil to get everything that I want to keep out of here and packed into my Jeep. My new view on life is, "If it won't fit into the Jeep, I don't need it". In the hustle to go through stuff (and I got a bunch of Junk) I found something that I wrote a few years back. If you have heard this before feel free to skip it, if you haven't still feel free to skip:

The problem is not a deficiency in happiness or good. The problem lies with a wealth of anger and strife. So the solution would seem to be to find a way to reduce the negative Everett in ourselves without reducing our positive energy. It is far easier to reduce something rather than increase something that is in short supply. Happiness is in and around us, we only need to find a way to change the positive/negative ratio. Don't bother your self with obtaining happiness. Once a little is gained it loses its value quickly, and the need for more encompasses all thoughts and actions. This makes true happiness and peace harder to achieve. Thus by letting go of emotions or energy that is negative we can have a greater proportion of positiveness in our lives. This is my shortcut to happiness. 

So there it is. Thanks for keeping up with me. I'll be back in LA on the 29th. Two weeks left in this hemisphere. Pura Vida
