Hey Precious Friends!
Hope breathing in the peace and beauty of present moment soothingly !
Without any worry of future and regret of past !
It takes us almost life time to understand though that our worries for future cannot change it in any way.
And our regrets cannot correct our previous mistakes long ago .
Both exist only in our thoughts and can be destructive for our mental health and then physical as well.
Regrets are like dust remained in way , left behind by fast running horses .
They can only make the vision foggy .
No positive use for them .
I am sure you took ride of seesaw at least once in life. While coming up and down changes in views gives amusing feeling.
Because we feel free to learn two different aspects of one scene at a time .
Learning is always source of pleasure indeed unless we use it to illusion our mind for the sake of false peace.
We often ride "Seesaw of certain mindset unconsciously, and mostly we prefer to choose any one side from both because it has " appeal of it's easiness along" we feel compelled.
I consider one side as WORRY OF FUTURE
And other side as SORRY OR REGRET FOR PAST
We assume that may be somehow our contemplation upon both sides can make any difference in situation which is totally wrong.
We barely select the middle spot of both sides which i would call PRESENT MOMENT .
Staying in middle is tough in beginning but once we are able to stand still and strong we find it BEST SPOT TO STAY IN, because it opens the doors towards reality existing around us at the time.
Living in present moment reveals truths about circumstances we are in .
It let us discover our insight and will power and such self awareness help us to grow for better .
It's never too late .
You remember i was taking medicines for arthritis. Doctor asked us to visit him when dose is finished we did go to him twice in previous two months but he was not available ,staff told he is out of city and his return is not certain yet .
After first visit when he was absent hubby asked me to quit medicine until his next advise but when we could not find him on second visit i started taking medicines again though reduced dose , i thought it will be help to keep the joints pain low or disappeared .
So i took these medicines for almost 8 months .I overlooked it's side effects which is really Bad .
Week back i again looked for side effects as since few months my appetite was almost completely gone and certain unpleasant signs appeared in feelings,
And this time it was shocking ,almost all kinds of organs can be affected negatively if the use is long for term.
So i quit medicines immediately .Right now i have relief from arthritis but what will happen in winters is question.
Now about an offer of writing an article which i received from a cooperation website .
They wanted me to write article of 500 words and show their keywords as links within.
I shared it with my eldest son and he tried to convince me still i don't think my blog type is for such advertisement .
what do you think my friends ?
Love you guys !
God Bless You All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some medication/pill are worse than the complaint itself.
ReplyDeleteAs for advertising on your blog, that is up to you.
Never do I look at advertisements always skip them by - they are a passion of dislike for me.
thank you dear Margaret for advise
Deletesame here and this is why i wanted to share it my friends because they are most important
Hi Baili - I tend to not have much problems with past regrets but I worry too much about the future. I guess that you cab say that I spend too much time on the bottom of the seesaw.
ReplyDeleteI hope everything works out with your medication.
I personally stay away from advertising on my blog.
Have a great day!
Thank you dear Brain for always kind words !
DeleteI really hope and pray that all is well in your wonderful life as I know you as amazing insightful man
I request not to think about time which is illusion and cannot be changed with just worries
I have mild arthritis in my hip, fortunately, occasional Ibuprofen and movement helps quite a bit. I'm with Margaret on blogmercials.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Joe!
DeleteFor sharing your thoughts I really appreciate it!
I got almost week ago and shared with my eldest son
He encouraged me because he knows that I was always interested in earning for myself
And he thinks I will feel sense of achievement
But firstly I know that earning requires constant hard work and time which I don't have specially the energy
Secondly I love my blogger friends and if something bother them while visit I will avoid for sure
Your decision about the advertising of course. I ignore it!
ReplyDeleteThe side effects of medication can be awful.
Glad you shared your thought over it dear Marie!
Deletethese side effects are only because of my carelessness and this is more hurtful
I hope you stay pain free.
ReplyDeleteI am not really a fan of advertisements on blogs either. But is your blog so it for you to decided if you like the idea :-)
dear Cheri believe me it is not just my blog it is place where i share my heart with my special friends:)
DeleteThat's an interesting offer you got Baili...I can't advise you! What does your gut tell you? (It's always right!!!) :)
ReplyDelete"Without any worry of future and regret of past"...I LOVE this sentiment. It took me so long to get into that frame of mind. For the longest time, the past haunted me and hurt me daily, I just couldn't shake it. And the future scared me because I longed for it too much. One day when I realized that all we have is right here and now, I felt happier. My worries gradually lessened and I enjoyed each moment. I think it's very healthy to live for today but plan for the future as long as it doesn't overtake the current happiness.
I'm glad you got of your meds...sometimes they are the worst for your body and you don't even realize it. I was on a medication for depression for a few years. I suffered terrible migraines, heart palpitations and shooting pain in my legs and hips...but the doctor kept telling me it was worth the side effects...NO WAY. I try to go the herbal root as much as possible now, for me, Alex and our pets. For your arthritis, have you tried the herb Arnica? I use it when my hands ache and it's pretty good. I buy it in a gel and I'm very grateful I have it some days!
Dear Rain thank you so much for sharing your heart !
Deletehow amazing that you learnt to dwell in present moment finally which is so important for physical and mental fitness
i am sorry for your problems followed by medication ,sounds scary when it comes to heart issues indeed
i made mistake by continuing the meds ,it was silly and childish thing to do which i thought is my caution and i am angry to my self
how could i not focus on side effects
two month extra medication caused me terrible pain in right shoulder and heartbeat gets faster when i do chores ,appetite has disappeared and feeling faint ,even more
your gel seems great ,can you please share it's name ?
i never tried herb cure since i am married though mom used to make or get her meds for me when i was young
Hi Baili :) You're welcome! :) Side effects of medication are scary. When you think of it, we are just putting chemicals into our bodies when we take prescribed meds. It's so unnatural but we all do it without thinking! I still take medication for headaches, though I wish there was another way!
DeleteThe herb I use is called Arnica and I buy it in gel form. It's a bit expensive but I've found it helps me a lot. Here is an image of that product so you can see it. https://www.avogel.ca/img/products/absolut_arnica_50mL-boxtube.png
Thank you dear Rain for sharing the name of gel and website !
DeleteI would be very, very cautious about agreeing to place a commercial blog post on my blog. I can't imagine any circumstance in which I would do it. I sometimes write something with links in it to other bloggers' websites where they are selling something (like a book or crafts) but I know them personally and have often used the product myself.
ReplyDeleteDear Debra i am happy you shared your opinion !
Deleteyou do great with putting links whom you know personally
one of my eldest son's friend used to make quite lot of money by writing article and i feel so proud of him as he belong to wealthy family still has fondness for earning which is great i think and rare here as usually kids start earning when they complete their studies , though him my son knows about such dealings well and this is why he encouraged me when he was satisfied after be sure that doing so was safe
Have had side effects enough times to make we read the warnings very carefully. Wow.
ReplyDeleteI hope your arthritis does well with ibuprofen. Look on holistic suggestions? There are some helps there.
Be careful friend. Some of the websites asking you to write for them are simply trying to get advertisement for themselves. Often they do not have good intentions. Make sure you check them out before doing anything. You know I wish only the best for you.
ReplyDeletethank you dear Emma
Deletei might not be as clever but as i told i shared the email with my son he visited and assured that website is real ,it deals with women clothes and footwear
hi baili i am so sorry you have been on medication so long, i get mild arthritis in thumb joints and wrists - exercise really helps (I do weight lifting and swimming etc) anything you can do to keep the joints mobile is good, I hope you can stay off the meds or only use them in the Winter. The advertising - not worth the bother so you are wise to be cautious but some bloggers do posts to review products they receive free and get some very nice products to keep. I did it once for a dvd which I gave to a friend, it really was not worth the effort I had to put in so I didnt do it again.
ReplyDeletethank you dear Betty for wise words!
Deletemedicines that i used two months more than i had to caused me enough problems to quit them immediately so i did it quickly when i realized the damage
i agree that the money they offer for 500 hundred words article is very less and i feel sorry for who are compelled to raise money from such resources that are not satisfactory are justified
Of course a lot of medication/treatment can do good … but not all.
ReplyDeleteThere is some medication that can be worse than the complaint itself.
I've even heard of headache tablets can give you a headache!!!
As for advertising on your blog, that is up to you.
I liked Rain's question "What does your gut tell you? (It's always right!!!)"
All the best Jan
Yes, our mind does play tricks on us. we can overthink things. so you make a very valid point.
ReplyDeleteDear Red so glad you stopped by :)
Deleteyes mind is something that must be tamed from beginning to think what we want him to think consciously other wise it is random ,unpredictable and dangerous sometimes
I agree with Debra. If I don't know much about a company, or if it's not connecting to someone I know, I am reluctant to do it.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Martha !
Deleteeither i think that my type of blog is not suitable for such display
side effect from a medicine could be a real problem, I hope we'd stay healthy as always!
ReplyDeleteHello, it is not good to worry about the past and future. we can not change the past but we can learn from past mistakes. I stopped taking a few medicines because I did not like the side effects, they were worse than the original problem. I wish you well. Thanks for visiting my blog. Enjoy your day, wishing you a great weekend ahead.
ReplyDeleteI don't know much about writing for compensation such as you describe so I can't say anything useful about that.
ReplyDeleteI tend to live in the moment, which is not a good thing for planning but it means I don't worry as much as I otherwise would do. I could stand to be a bit more balanced!
Wise words, Baili, and so very true! Sometimes it is difficult, but with the present moment being the goal, it gets easier, I am finding. We are always learning, aren't we?.....hopefully for the best! So many drugs have terrible side-effects. It's worth doing some research about them. My daughter has rheumatoid arthritis and had to take a powerful drug to put it in remission, but it worked and now she feels better and stopped taking it. So far she hasn't had a flare up, but she has to watch her stress level and diet. You have to listen to your body, and decide what is best for you. I wish you good luck with what you decide on your blog! Blessings and hugs xo Karen
ReplyDeleteI like your blog, would not change it.
ReplyDeleteYou have understood the balance of past and future very nicely, my friend
nice article my friend..
ReplyDeleteplease visit my blog too
living in the present teaches us of the circumstances we are in...I love it.
ReplyDeleteDearest Baili...I am so sorry that you have been on medication for so long.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with medication, is that it always brings side effects that are sometimes even worse that the original illness we are taking it for.
That is the reason I have refused radiotherapy and drug therapy for my cancer.
I decided to take my chances on Fate.😊
Please do be careful about advertising on your blog. If you do decide to try it, then do check out all the details before you commit yourself. Many of these are not to be trusted, and are only out to make money from you.
I really do hope it works out OK for you, my beautiful Friend, whatever you decide!😊
Oh I really wish I could learn to live in the present...would save me an awful lot of needless worrying!😉
Have a Wonderful Weekend.
Lots of love and hugs xxx
Dear Ygraine I am worried about your decision to qui medicine for disease you are dealing with.
DeleteI hope you have found better way to cure it ?
I have seen few women who recovered from cancer after treatment though
I'm sorry to hear about the side effects of medication that you had. I hope you are doing much better now that you are no longer taking them. I have found that those wanting to advertise on your blog pay very little money for the time and effort you must put into it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about the side affects from you medication! Please be careful and be careful about posting about this advertiser. Some of them are no good! Big Hugs!
