Watch out! There's monsters out there!

Have you noticed how little control you really have over your life? Think of all the annoyances that come at you everyday, they are always unwelcome, and most of them are unexpected. It seems that life is plagued by twists and turns that make things more difficult, rarely more easy.

Look how excited you get when you have some good luck! It’s not very common is it? Most things seem to go against you. Okay, I can hear all of your clichés being thrown at me.

“Be grateful! Look at what you’ve got! There are always those worse off…. etc.”

I don’t accept that unrealistic and fairy-tale attitude. This is a killer planet where everything eats something else. It is the nature of the world, you are not going to change it with rock concerts for causes or through rescuing stranded whales. Death, difficulty and destruction rule this planet and your heart-felt dreams are not going to change its character!

You can make an effort to make your little world as comfortable as possible, that’s like some animals build a burrow or nest to try and make a safe haven, but you will not stop the nature of this planet imposing itself upon your sweet little haven.

But wait! Don’t go! Don’t give up! That’s not the point of this blog.

The point is, you cannot change the nature of the world so give up complaining and do what you can to make a better life.

Make your little straw house, a delightful place to be… but remember… one day… the big bad wolf might come a-knocking on your door! GRRRRRRR!
