Episode summary introduction:

Welcome to this episode of Electronic Walkabout, we begin this episode with a poem.  A Mexican poem written in 1915 by Amado Nervo and focus on this key phrase in the poem 

“Life, you owe me nothing, Life, we are at peace”

These  words set the stage for a trip where we talk about are true expectations of life and what is means when we fall short of those expectations

Our good news story is a good news/awareness story as we share with the listeners Autism Awareness Day. This day is meant to give us a better understanding of what autism is and the positive contributions provided by individuals diagnosed with this disorder. It is also meant to help end the stigma and discrimination that some Autistic people experience.  

Topics discussed in this episode:

Being on this planet literally gives us a world of opportunities when viewed in the right perspectives give meaning to our lives:

• Does the world owe us anything?
• What can the world offer us?
• The meaning of life?
• Does the world contribute to our challenges and hardships?
• Midlife Crisis?

Walkabout takeaways:

When it comes to trying to figure out why we are on this planet the answers are always subjective, remember:

• You are in control of your own destiny both positive and negative.
• You are in control of how you react to challenging situations.
• Losing your sense of entitlement is a real win
• Always treat life as a gift of endless opportunities.
• Life really never challenges you, it just sets you up for your next success.
• Consider this, knowledge, talent, good ethics and hard work inevitably lead to happiness and success.

In the end the world/life truly is your oyster to find as many pearls as you can!

When we realize this it becomes easy to say:

“Life, you owe me nothing, Life, we are at peace!”
