Revival of my inner-Dude

[Father J]

Hey there all you Dudes.
I have to say thank you for just being yourselves and takin' 'er easy for all those sinners out there. Because I'll tell you what, I have been very un-Dude for the past few months. I've been in a real rut, you know? Rolling a lot of gutters and not too many strikes. I was real bummed about how my life was going and wasn't too stoked about myself. I found Dudeism last year but for some reason put it on the back burner in my mind. Without the goal of taking it easy in mind my worldview skewed and I was in a bad place. For whatever reason, this week I decided to visit Dudeism.com and after reading for 20 minutes I felt better than I had in months. All thanks to you Dudes. So thank you to all my brothers and sisters out there. Thank you for trying your durnedest to be as Dude as possible. Even when your Walter comes out and you flash a piece on the lanes. I've committed to revitalizing my efforts to take it easy. I seem to be rambling now so I believe I'll stop. 
Take it easy everyone,
Father J

Yeah, man!  Fuck it! 
You can't be worrying about that shit. 
Life goes on!

I definitely feel you, man. My job has been stressing me out lately and I sometimes let that spill into my home life. Very un-dudely of me and I know it is unfair to my wife--who without knowing anything about dudeism, manages to be the perfect dudeist ever. I just hate that she's married to a Walter. Stick with it man and the bar is over there.

I know the feels dude. Work and other things may beat you up and bring you down, but don't let it stop you from taking it easy. Whenever I am going through a rough patch I always tell myself that I have a roof over my head, food in the fridge and an amazing girlfriend.

Such an amazing group of people post here. Love the members.

It wouldn't be right if we didn't help our fellow dudes/dudettes. In the short time I have been here I've noticed that everyone has something great to say. And everyone has mad respect for each other

[Father J]

I feel like I've said thank you enough but I'm gonna say it again. Thanks for the love and support. You all hit the nail on the head. Everyone's so respectful and amazing and just has the upmost support for everyone else. I think I really need this community to deal with all of the ins and outs I've been dealing with. Sometimes life throws a marmot in your bathtub and you just need a little support. So thanks yet again

Welcome to our quiet beach community, Dude!

In the wise words of Tony the Limo Driver "fuhgeddaboudit". Every Dude hits a rough patch from time to time; all you can do is mix up another Caucasian, grab a lane, and take comfort in the fact that you're not alone. Takin' it easy is a journey, not a destination...or eh, something like that.

Our dogs pick up on my stress more quickly than I do. They freak out, want to be in my lap, and try to give kisses. They know something's wrong in general but not what to do about it. A good alarm system, though, to tell me when to say "fuck it."
