Top 5 things that will probably die before their time.

We all hope and pray to live a long, full life. As they say, none of us are getting out of this alive! Some however, the end comes sooner. Some lives are cut suddenly and tragically short.

Obviously in real life this isn't funny. Not at all. Not even a little bit.

But...

With blatant disregard for sensibility, here my top five list of things most likely to go out in a blaze of glory before their time.

5, A pet goldfish.

4, A character played by Sean Bean.

3, A character in Game of Thrones.

2, A character in Game of Thrones played by Sean Bean.

1, My socks

I welcome comments. Funny is preferable, macabre is acceptable, a combination of those is perfect!

Taking credit, talking credit.

I've found that when people know their credit isn't great or where they'd like it to be they tend to ignore it and just accept a bad credit score as a fact of life.

The reality is understanding and taking control of our credit score/report is incredibly empowering.
It's not a lost cause or an unwinnable battle. We live in a world where good credit makes a tremendous difference to our quality of life while poor credit closes doors and holds our dreams hostage.

So even if it's not good now, if life happened and you took a hit, let me encourage you; it's YOUR credit, YOUR life and it's in YOUR power to reclaim control and set your dreams free!

This man is me!

I looked at myself shirtless in the mirror a couple of days ago. I looked at the relatively new appendectomy scars, the huge scars on my forearm, but also the shape, paler, softer, and yes, fatter. It struck me. I look older. Maybe not old yet, but older. Life has made it's mark on me. The days where I eat whatever I want, take a short jog every now and again and stay in shape are long gone. The Wolverine-like healing powers of youth are replaced by a plethora of random, unexplained aches and pains.

I'm older. I've lived more. And it shows.

This is the part where I'm supposed to say I looked at myself and saw the marks of my journey, that I looked proudly at myself and embraced the truth that how I look is a reflection of the road I've walked, who I've become, how I've grown and where I'm heading.

Honestly I'm working on that. Mostly I felt depressed. 
 
At physical therapy this evening the PT had me take my shirt off. normally they don't need to. I wish I could say I sat there comfortable and confident in who I am and how I look. Truth is, I was very happy to put my shirt back on.

Not sure where I was going with this. I guess the article resonated with some thoughts that have been rattling around.
