Trial
Each person has their own way of looking at the events that happen throughout the day, and how they affect that person’s way of life.
In this Trial, we are looking at things that negatively affect the person, and what that person can try to avoid the unwanted stresses.
I notice that as a whole, we are an argumentative species, prone to anger, dissent, and a lack of overall satisfaction with our surroundings, yet we do not always seem motivated to move beyond this and move forward to make things better. Some of us camp around the acrid glow of our computer monitors, wrists locked in painful rigor, as if we are dead to the world, hammering out replies to forums and entries in journals, expecting some sort of gratification. Others might go out to different places, but with the wrong intent, to drown our fears, sorrows, and annoyances in an intoxicating gulp of oft bitter fluids.
I’d like to help people understand and believe that by turning off that monitor, and putting down that stein, one can start an improvement in their lives — a proverbial metempsychosis, so to speak — and perhaps find that the quality of living can increase with a simple exercise.
