Risky business.....

As I sit here eating my sub sammich with it's Au Jus, it reminds me of risky stuff we do from time to time. Right now it's mostly me risking the Au Jus dripping all over my overpriced keyboard and frying it all to hell.

But in the whole, we all face risks almost daily. Sometimes we don't even realize it. But then there are those that we do know about. And those usually involve a change of some sort. Changing jobs, changing relationships, or changing locations. Or the Trifecta: Changing job and location, because of a relationship. Sometimes you have a good feeling about it, sometimes it's an iffy feeling, and sometimes it's just bad. But usually, the feeling you had when you first came upon the choice, is the one to follow. Yeah, it might hit on all the logical points, but if it doesn't feel right, then maybe it isn't.

Maybe you're looking at changing jobs. Let's say there is a job that pays more, has better benefits, and is closer to home, but there's no guarantee of job security beyond 6 months. Do you take it? With nothing more than what I have told you, hopefully you wouldn't. But if you met the folks at the job and thought it was good, then follow your instinct.

Relationships are pretty much the same. Most people look for the trophy aspects; more money, better looks, benefits... But those factors really mean nothing in the big picture. Happiness, comfort, and longevity are the true goals to seek in life. Whether it be a job, a location, or a relationship, those should be the 3 main requirements.

If they can't be fulfilled, then the risk ain't worth it.

I'm done preaching for the night.

Goodnight, Good Morning, Whatever....
