I thought that I should probably back up a little…now that you have seen a few samples of my writings. I chose the title of my blog page in a very unique fashion. Maybe not so unique since my first choice was taken…’atmosphericpressure’ because the weather people already had the corner on that market, hence the addition of ‘your’. Unique because most people don’t look at things sideways like I do. You can ask many of my friends and they will tell you it’s not always the side that you want to see. Explanation as follows…

When your atmosphere presents certain pressures whether they be high pressures or low pressures you react. Sometimes we act accordingly and sometimes we do not. Some people may react to high pressure in a relatively good way as apposed to people that would rather react to low pressure. I would like to think that I can do both depending on the high or the low that presents itself. My high may be your low and my low may be your high and this is why I began my blog with ‘no judgement’.

It’s very simple! Yes, I said simple! You may be able to shop for a pair of shoes and go about it in a very informed and meticulous way, yet I will research as I do not want to shop, I want them right now and I want what I want. You might enjoy the endeavor of searching from store to store or surfing the web all day. I, however, will give up and not buy anything. I, myself, find it frustrating that there has to be 2,000 pairs of black slip resistant shoes on the market that claim they do the same thing. Why must I look through 2,000 selections to find the perfect one when there should just be one perfect one?!? I will, however, spend an hour adding just the right touch to a sauce recipe to get it just right so that my pasta is perfect, to me, and not blink an eye. I will turn on music and dance around with my garlic clove, grabbing a bottle from the fridge because I think a little dash of it will make it shine and I will be okay. Not stressed but yet it is a pressure I give myself to build what I think to be a great sauce. Two very different examples but you can see from this that it really is all in ones perception of ‘high or low’. What is in your atmosphere today that has given you your high or low? What is shaping you to feel high or low? Can you make a high a low or vice versa? Maybe it’s all in the way we look at something.

So…people, please keep checking in from time to time. There might be something that feeds your atmospheric pressure. I might be against the darkness and for the light because of what has affected my atmosphere in one way or another, but tomorrow may the darkness give us solitude for the light that it may exude… It’s usually your attitude! (adult Suess moment)

That’s all!

P.S. May your atmospheric pressure bring you peace but also bring you a fire you can either warm yourself with or ignite a new passion that makes you dance with garlic wearing your favorite pair of shoes!
