We have a tendency to uphold our own self-images by blaming our problems on our surrounding circumstances. When things at work fall apart, it is our co-worker’s incompetence or slacking off; when our house is a mess it is our spouse’s fault; and when we are driving it’s always the other person cutting us off.
As our sages teach us, “A person sees all wounds except his own.” We like to see ourselves in the right and blame others for our failings.

If you can keep your head…While all about you…People are losing theirs and blaming you…If you can trust yourself…When everybody doubts you…And make allowance for their doubting too.

Everyday lyrics
I got lost, couldn’t find my way
And I guess there’s nothin’ more to say
Love can make you blind, make you act so strange
But I’m here and here I will stay
So everyday I cry
Yes everyday I fall
Do you ever wonder why, why I love everythin’ about you?
But everyday I say, "I’ll try to make my heart be still"
‘Til then every way there is to cry, ourselves to sleep we will
It picked me up, knocked me off my feet
I’ve got no way to explain
Still I love you, love you, love you but this fire inside
Will never see the light of day
So everyday goes by and everyday I fall
It makes me wonder why?
My life’s worth nothing without you
But everyday I say, "I’ll try to make my heart be still"
‘Cos every way there is to cry ourselves to sleep, we will
[ From: www.elyrics.net/read/p/phil-collins-lyrics/everyday-lyric... ]
You’ll never know, no, no, no ,no ,no
You’ll never know just how close we were
You’ll never know, no, no, no ,no ,no
You’ll never know
No you’ll never see
The book closes and we try to forget
But I know that things won’t change
How we feel, how life goes on
And that seems so strange
And so the light fades away
Try, try, try as I may
I can’t stop thinkin’ about you
It seems my life’s worth nothing without you
But everyday I say, "I’ll try to make my heart be still"
‘Til then every way there is to cry, ourselves to sleep we will
Everyday, everyday, you know I try so hard
Everyday, everyday, it gets a little harder
Everyday, everyday, you know I try so hard
Everyday, everyday, it gets a little harder

If
by Joni Mitchell
If you can keep your head
While all about you
People are losing theirs and blaming you
If you can trust yourself
When everybody doubts you
And make allowance for their doubting too.
If you can wait
And not get tired of waiting
And when lied about
Stand tall
Don’t deal in lies
And when hated
Don’t give in to hating back
Don’t need to look so good
Don’t need to talk too wise.
If you can dream
And not make dreams your master
If you can think
And not make intellect your game
If you can meet
With triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same
If you can force your heart
And nerve and sinew
To serve you
After all of them are gone
And so hold on
When there is nothing in you
Nothing but the will
That’s telling you to hold on!
Hold on!
If you can bear to hear
The truth you’ve spoken
Twisted and misconstrued
By some smug fool
Or watch your life”s work
Torn apart and broken down
And still stoop to build again
With worn out tools.
If you can draw a crowd
And keep your virtue
Or walk with Kings
And keep the common touch
If neither enemies nor loving friends
Can hurt you
If everybody counts with you
But none too much.
If you can fill the journey
Of a minute
With sixty seconds worth of wonder and delight
Then
The Earth is yours
And Everything that’s in it
But more than that
I know
You’ll be alright
You’ll be alright.
Cause you’ve got the fight
You’ve got the insight
You’ve got the fight
You’ve got the insight

How Much Blaming Should We Do?
By Yakov Danishefsky | Jul 11th, 2012
www.ou.org/life/inspiration/self-critique-confidence-yako…
“Be careful on the road! I just heard on the news that there’s a crazy man driving the wrong way on the highway!” yelled the nervous woman into her phone. Her husband frantically responded, “What do you mean one man driving the wrong way?! Everyone here is driving the wrong way!”

We have a tendency to uphold our own self-images by blaming our problems on our surrounding circumstances. When things at work fall apart, it is our co-worker’s incompetence or slacking off; when our house is a mess it is our spouse’s fault; and when we are driving it’s always the other person cutting us off. As our sages teach us, “A person sees all wounds except his own.” We like to see ourselves in the right and blame others for our failings.
To be sure, this natural inclination is not entirely bad. It serves us well by protecting our ego and sense of self-worth. Seeing our shortcomings as products of exterior causes allows us to maintain our optimism and faith in ourselves. People who lack this skill often see themselves as deficient and fall prey to pessimism and depression. Dr. Martin Seligman, in his acclaimed book Learned Optimism, considers this ability to be one of the foremost ingredients to being a successful optimist and successful in life.
Nonetheless, we cannot allow this perspective to be our only view of life’s occurrences. We must balance it with a healthy sense of personal responsibility. Whether at work or at home, with friends, family, or fellow highway speedsters, our buttons are always being pushed. Qualities of patience, benefit of the doubt, courage, faith and others are of invaluable importance in all areas of life. If every time something happens it is someone else’s fault, we will never develop any of these virtues and we will never grow as individuals.
Frustrating and difficult situations are opportunities to turn inwards and see how we could have acted differently. By looking into ourselves, accepting a slight blow to our ego and letting our picturesque self-image falter just a little, we are able to locate areas of our character that could use some strengthening. When things at work go awry it is an opportunity to identify your role in the chain and see where you can improve, whether as a person or a professional. When things at home are tense and tempers are flaring, instead of blaming your children or spouse, take a moment to identity your piece in the puzzle.
It may be difficult to do this in the moment of frustration, but after all the dust settles, take a step back and think–would it have been helpful had I been less judgmental or more patient? What could have happened had I spoken in a softer tone or given an extra compliment? Would the office run smoother if I were more effective in balancing my workload by delegating and being more organized? These are the questions that bring about character development and growth. Excessive amounts of self-critique can be damaging, but a healthy diet of self-introspection can go a long way.
King Solomon, in his infinite wisdom, took this idea a step further. “As water reflects a face back to a face, so one’s heart is reflected back to him by another,” he said. In other words, “You are what you hate.” The blemishes a person sees in others are often a reflection of his own weaknesses. When you are in that moment of anger and frustration, blaming your co-worker for being lazy or your spouse for being moody, it is not enough to take responsibility; rather, it is imperative to realize that it is specifically the aspect you are most infuriated by that is most likely your own greatest flaw. While this is often very difficult to swallow, it can be used as a helpful tool to identifying the parts of our personality that need the most improvement.
The golden path is the path of equilibrium and balance, as Maimonides states. An overload of personal responsibility and blame leads to an unhealthy lack of self-confidence and can paralyze your ability to march on through the difficulties of failure. On the other hand, placing all shortcomings on other people and factors external to yourself disables a person from truly growing and developing respectable character. Real optimism means seeing the glass half full but still recognizing that there is a missing half that we can–and need–to fill. When you feel that everyone around you is driving the wrong way, it is time to realize that you yourself need to turn around.

“How’s Your Onion?” [Day 1/7]
Image by Bekah Stargazing
(UGH I just wrote a whole description and it didn’t save. Well, actually, it saved, but then I accidentally saved over it with blank description. Ugh ugh ugh. Here I go, trying to re-write it.)
Hello all.
I haven’t done a run of 7 Days in a while (since summer 2011). Feels good to be back!!
I’d like to apologize for a few things.
- I’m sorry for not having done a run of this project in so long. I keep forgetting, and every time I DO remember to do it, and end up participating, I feel really awesome about it. So I basically just need to find a better way to remind myself that it’s occurring.
- I’m sorry that it’s so late in the day! It’s five minutes of tomorrow for me, here, right now. But I was out all day and couldn’t get to a computer until about half an hour ago, and now I’m rushing against the clock, hoping to have this submitted to the group within the next 5 mins.
But yes. Anyway. My description of the photo:
This is me, and it’s a picture I took at one of my favorite local eateries (well, it’s local to my parents’ house, which is where I was these past few nights).
My friend Dan and I went there today.
The name of the place is "How’s Your Onion?" Yes, with the question mark and everything.
The reason it’s named that stems back to a family inside joke where the owner’s grandmother used to say, "How’s your onion?" and the response would always be "Good enough to make you cry!"
So this coffee mug I’m holding, even though you can’t see it very clearly (‘cos I didn’t focus it on that, I focused on my face), says "good enough to make you cry" on it, and on the opposite side, it has the question/logo "How’s Your Onion?"
HERE is another shot, and I was considering using it as my "official" Day 1 photo, but I like this one better.
Making Homemade Candied Cherries
Image by madlyinlovewithlife
Luckily for me, my sweetheart has really taken to the ice cream maker I so selflessly got for his birthday. Here, he’s stirring some fresh Lapin cherries that he’s candying on the stove top to make one of my favourite summer treats: Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream!
I used my 50mm lens for this and shot it in a swath of afternoon sunshine coming through the window. I really like the blue sky reflections around some of the cherries and the numerous little starbursts that this 50 mm lens sometimes produces when I shoot in natural sunlight.
