I’m starting this blog in an effort to change the bad karma that seems to be dominating my life. It seems that at every turn something negative is happening to me and I’ve made the conscious effort to change it. I originally started this blog on another site that has some serious stability issues. My first post there was in December of 2014. Because of my job (which I’ll explain later) I’m not able to blog as often as I’d like to. But as I change my ways of thinking and perceiving the world around me, I hope to make writing a profession.

Currently my profession is long haul trucking.  I did this job in the late 90′s for a couple of years and quit in 2000 to take a local construction job as being on the road was stressing me out something fierce.  The stress of being away from home for weeks at a time and dealing with the constant barrage of bad drivers making horrible decisions around me really got to me. I got my first commercial drivers licence around 1994. That was a class B licence.  I drove for a couple of years for a bottled water company in Sacramento CA. Through bad life decisions I took another job in the shipping office of a window manufacturing company that quickly let to me getting my class A licence and start driving semi trucks on a local delivery basis. More poor decisions led to a divorce and then my first OTR (over the road) driving job. I worked for a couple different companies until I made the decision to stop driving and take the construction job I mentioned above.

The saving grace in my life happened in 2004 when I met whom I believe to be my soul mate.  I was living in Sacramento and was absolutely hating my life there.  The people in California drove me crazy.  It seems that the average mentality of Californians have a “all about me” attitude that I can’t stand.  It’s seems the typical Californian, when faced with a neighbor doing something that they don’t like or agree with, will call police, land lords or management or anyone else to deal with the person they have issues with except the person their having the issues with. I guess this is a mirror image of myself not liking to deal with confrontation that makes me dislike that attitude. Also does this mean I hate all Californians? No it doesn’t. I really am trying to not “hate” anybody. But if you’ve traveled the country enough then I’m sure you realize that ways the general populous views things, thinks about things, handles the world around them is different from state to state for the most part.

I ran across a type of personality trait that out of all the different tests I’ve taken that describes ones personality to fit a label, the one I recently found sums mine up best. And that is an “Indigo.”  I read the descriptions of this type of personality and every single one of the traits is something I have.  An example of this can be found at this site: http://lightworkers.org/blog/82231/basic-indigo-adult-characteristics

So with this background maybe someone can understand better of my struggles with life and offer up some good advice on how to change bad karma. Thank you for reading!!
