CARING BLOGGER ASKS FOR HELP?

CARING BLOGGER

If anyone asks if you know a caring blogger, what do you tell them?

Them them yes, then explain what it is.

In case you have trouble with the explanation, I’ll help.

This is a caring blogger:

When you buy something that involves intricate parts and pieces, you depend on instructions.

Follow the printed directions for the best results.

However, life doesn’t come with printed instructions.

A caring blogger understands the difficulty.

Instead of explaining how to make $10K a month on business blogging, which seems to be the bare minimum for successful marketers, you get me writing about things to pay attention to.

A daily blog like this one works off current issues, past history, and future recommendations.

Current issues? Like what?

Kids don’t understand this, but one of the big challenges to baby boomers is keeping an even keel, staying calm and collected.

No one wants to see frazzled old people freaking out in public, or at home.

Does it even happen? More than necessary?

Current issues:

While baby boomers are living longer than any previous generation, they also have the dubious distinction of having the highest rates of obesity for their age bracket than any other generation.

In 1994, 31 percent of those between the ages of 55 and 64 were obese; by 2002, the rate had climbed to 39 percent.

Not only are baby boomers more obese than the previous generation, they became more obese at an earlier age, and women in their 50s are the most likely to be obese.

Check sources to be certain.

Health instructions suggest that if you eat too much you may gain weight and diabetes.

That’s the #1 concern, chronic disease.

Past History

CARING BLOGGER

My generation dropped just as the world of nations were crawling out of the black hole of WWII.

After 65 million died between 1939-45, baby boomers checked in with 76 million between 1946-64.

Since then we’ve all been looking for the meaning of life, learning to respect women, and facing challenges with strength.

So far so good?

Future Recommendations From Caring Blogger

Take a good look around where you are, right where you are, and make a plan that starts with cleaning up your mess.

At least acknowledge you could change a few things up.

Start with an attitude adjustment.

Everything Everywhere All At Once is a movie title, not a lifestyle.

Lay off the panic button response to everything everywhere all at once.

If you are currently married, find a way to say or do something nice for your partner.

Make it something they’ll notice without telling them, and avoid blaming them if they don’t notice.

Do you follow this train of thought: Treat others as you’d like to be treated.

It’s called the Golden Rule for a reason I don’t know, but I like it.

If we work together, we can maximize our shared resources.  If we divide ourselves and hoard what we believe to be “ours,” we will perish in scarcity, unable to address the problems that need attention – education, jobs, natural resources, and our role in the world.  We cannot survive alone.

A caring blogger leads readers to be better than they think they can be.
