Why being nice always beats being nasty

Some people think that I have to be crazy if I believe that being nice beats bing nasty but at the end of the day there are far too many nasty things in this world and why should I be one of them.

Now some would say I am grumpy and true sometimes I can be but if you cannot improve the quality of someone's life by being around the then you have wasted an opportunity.

Love simply does make the world go round and the more you give it the more you get in return

Am I a Thetan?

Sometimes as you walk through this life and it throws you some challenges you have to question why we exist. Now some in our world would suggest that we descend from an Alien race called the Thetans.

Well yesterday I felt a bit like an Alien. I was subject to abuse by individuals who are supposed to help and ignored by those who are supposed to be friends. I have never possibly felt more alone in this life.

And then I picked up my 10 year old son from a party to be given the most wonderful hug going and it made me think again.

We exist to bring love and happiness to those around us and in our very mixed up world we forget the innocence of childhood and the very raw unabated love they give to us, the old gnarled parent.

So no I am not a Thetan, I am a loving, caring individual who has the power to spread joy and happiness wherever I go.

Maybe it is time more people thought this way.

Teachers need more pay!

Well it was my son's 10th birthday party at the weekend and like the muppet I am I said ok to a paintballing party. Mmm well it seemed like a good idea at the time. 10, ten year olds running around splatting each other was a great way of wearing them out and as someone else would be doing it I could sit back and enjoy the sun.

No such luck 2 of the children cried off sick so yours truly had to pitch in. Walking is difficult enough for me most of the time so I decided to be a sniper, lie down cover myself in foilage and pick my targets. I was doing quite well building a reputation but eventaully I got shot. Now heres he bit that gets me.

When you get shot you put your hand in the air and walk to the dead zone. And no one is allowed to shoot you.

But these were 10 year old kids so the minute I stood up put my hand in the air and turned to walk away...you've guessed it full on assault.

High spirited yes, brutal yes but as the marshall said who's the adult so don't retalliate.

The motto of the story:

Teachers just don't get enough pay !
