Have You Ever Wondered? or Am I The Only One?

During the past few weeks I have been asking myself a number of questions about several life areas. I was thinking, am I the only one who from time to time has wondered some of these same things so I thought I would share them with you this week just in case I am not alone.

Have you ever wondered why some people,

-Seem to easily fall in love and then just as easily fall out of love?

-Just don’t learn lessons the first time and keep repeating the same mistakes again and again?

-Hear a good idea that can have a dramatic positive impact on their life and don’t apply it?

-Are oblivious to others when it comes to simple courtesies?

-Are more concerned about what other people think of them than their own opinion of themselves?

-Refuse to accept the fact that there are other ways to see things than their own opinions?

-Will not invest a nickel to improve themselves even thought they want to be more successful?

-Let experiences of the past prevent them from enjoying the present?

-Refuse to forgive others for often simple mistakes or slights?

-Spend time worrying about things that they have no control over?

-Have self-destructive habits knowing that they may shorten their life or prevent their happiness?

-Spend their whole lives in jobs or careers they hate?

-Are not pleasant to total strangers who cross their life path?

-Spend more time living in the past or future than the present moment?

-Get angry over really stupid stuff?

-Stay in destructive relationships?

-Let really dumb things that don’t ultimately matter stress them out?

-Complain about everything even though they woke up this morning?

-Lose touch with people who have meant a great deal to them in the past?

-Won’t even try – anything?

-Love their jobs, cars or friends more than their own family?

-Constantly invalidate others?

-Are nicer to clients, pets, customers of fellow employees than their own spouse?

-Can find something negative about everything?

-Blame God for their troubles?

-Drive too fast, cut people off at 75 MPH or try to beat others to an available parking spot?

-Let their ego get in the way of their happiness or peace of mind?

-Don’t set goals when it is proven fact that having goals improves your chances for success and happiness?

-Who are married, spend less than 30 minutes a week, on average in really talking with each other about important things.

-Spend more time watching TV than reading good books or spending time with family?

-Turn their happiness over to other people or to outside circumstances?

-Regret the choices they didn't make and things they they didn't do more than choices they made and things they did.

I could go on but there are literally thousands of these kinds of questions. Have you ever wondered about any of these or others?
