Could there be any truth to the saying that washing your car is daring mother nature to make it rain?
I say we should ban together and wash our cars to see if we can bring on the much needed rain…….

What is going on with people’s mentality these days?
Everyone knows or knows of at least one person who lives their life constantly in need of being saved…..
Don’t misunderstand me! I know that life can throw some mean curve balls that knock you down and take your breath away. My heart truly goes out to anyone who has ever had to endure such an experience. There is no question of respectability for people who end up in such situations.
What I struggle with are those who’s only method of living life entails piggybacking on someone else! No matter what opportunities exist before them, the amount of people who are working in their best interest, the multiple attempts of loved ones to organize new beginnings, or lack of stability regardless of the aid they receive.
You will find these are the type of people who get their wheels spinning managing to make a bit of noise, they make sure to leave a mark showing they were there, and stir up a lot of smoke all without gaining momentum that will actually move them forward.
I just can’t wrap my head around it?
THEN….if that scenario isn’t bad enough! It usually goes without fail that in the end those who exist this way tend to bite the hand that feeds them. Which only leaves them in search of a new place to begin the process again.
Seriously WHY? Could someone tell me why they don’t want to end the insufferable pattern? How many bridges can you possibly burn before you run out? What does it take to get them to see the error of their ways?

Facebook’s Lotto Frenzy
There is a new wave of marketing on facebook today!! The lotto fever has taken over and has become highly contagious. There are users posting pictures of lottery tickets they have purchased and are making promises to share their winnings with one or more of those who…..
I must admit that it is a bit of an ingenious way to increase your exposure. There are users who are asking you to like or subscribe to their page in order to qualify for a portion of their possible winnings. There is one whom will remain unnamed that has created a link from their website containing a photo of their ticket and the requirements that are to be fulfilled before your considered in the running. I have repeatedly seen this link popping up as shared and liked on my facebook wall….the catch is in his requirement which really was for them to like his page. Such a shame!! Meanwhile the word spread like wildfire which just so happened to be the intention. A winning streak has occurred today regardless of how the lotto drawing this evening turns out….
Wishing you luck

Did you get a lottery ticket?
The mega million lottery game once again escaped a winning claim on the then 363 million dollar jackpot. Can you believe it $363,000,000.00. As you can imagine the ticket sales have exploded and the jackpot now stands at 500 million…..it’s only half of a billion dollars.
Were you one of the many millions who took a chance and risked the odds that would pay out $500,000,000.00?

Perspective
When life gives you lemons…..find some sugar and make some lemonade! Then go to all your friends show them how you did it and convince them to as well. Then hit the streets to sell it and before you know you will have an empire…….
I find that there are more and more people falling victim to their pasts or life’s circumstances lately than I can bear. I also have plenty of my own stories I could chew on until I choked…but I would prefer not to. Instead I would rather believe in simplifing the solutions to the challenges we all face… the measure of why you don’t have what your after should be catergorized by the time is not now, not ever, or your just doing it the wrong way…
Life is not suppose to be miserable! Hard at times..yes but not miserable! Should you ever feel it is then you may want to consider making some changes. Invest in finding what will make you happy. This will also help to smooth over the rough spots you come across.
The main difference I have found in people who are content in life and those who are not all stems from their perspective…….

Makes you go hmmm
Why do we park in driveways and drive on parkway?
Why do we call heavy drive times rush hour?
Why do kids fight taking naps and adults long for one?
Do you remember time passing so slow as a kid and as an adult find yourself asking where it went?
Bouncing in the lanes
What makes drivers want to bounce from lane to lane when traffic is backed up? In reality your making the slow down take longer because your causing the driver you just jumped in front of hit their brakes yet again.
Just saying,

Have you heard this before..
I came across a saying that is so true and funny I just had to share.
When life closes a window it will open a door but the dark hallways are a beach…..
I hope you giggled like I did!

Which side of the fine line do you stand on?
Sometimes it can be hard to see the fine line that is present between constructive criticism and a critic’s opinion. Recently I began building allspiceandadvice.com. Luckily I have full support from those around me in my newest venture and yet the picking in fun has already begun…there was a comment left for me a couple days after going live by the mastermind behind thinkingoutloudlounge.com that said: You know, it drives me nuts when I see blogs that don’t even have posts aside from the default one. When are you going to post some content???
As you can imagine I couldn’t help but laugh and vow to return the favor.
There’s nothing wrong with receiving a gentle nudge when it’s purpose is to help you achieve what your after.
On the other hand I have also seen when it goes horribly wrong. Recently I saw an episode of Top Model where one of the girls had presented a bit of attitude and well a basic disregard for authority. At the end of the show they are judged on the assignment given, on who they are, and how they carry themselves. Upon standing in front of the judges her behaviors were addressed first with the intentions of preventing a possible lag in her career. She stood at the end of the catwalk as they issued their reviews. Until she just started to unravel from having felt personally attacked. Followed by a child’s grade temper tantrum for all the world to see. In short she removed herself from the competition. The greatest shame was she had actually done well on the task that was assigned and would have been able to continue on.
I know how hard it can be to have another person judge you or your intentions!
The thing to keep in mind is that an outside view (even one you don’t care for) can make you see the same thing in a different light and create a better outcome. So when you feel someone is picking you apart ask yourself which side of the fine line are you viewing the information from?
