Floyd Riley, 15 years of age, confessed to Sheriff M. O. Ballard and Undersheriff J. N. Froome late Thursday afternoon that he robbed the cabins of Al Watson, a home - steader, and others in Dye Creek canyon. The officers had been apprised of numer- ous robberies in the district about five miles east of Dairyville, and, leaving Red Bluff at 4 o'clock in the morning, they made quiet visit to that section. — March 21, 1924 90 years ago...

That might sound high fal- lutin' and all, but it's pretty simple; my take was that as long as we put control over what happens to us "out there" rather than squarely within, nothing will ever change. We will remain where we are in our devel - opment. I state that without judg- ment, just pointing out a fact. For example, it may be true that Aunt Margaret is pushing the deep-dish lasa - gna she made "just for you" like a pasta addict enabler. Equally true is she gets of- fended when you turn it down, and saying "no" to her home cooking causes a family rift. It might also be accu - rate that your husband is unsupportive when he sits next to you munching obliv- iously away on your favor- ite flavor of potato chips, while you're stuck in a funk with celery sticks and car- rots. Yes, you've told him a thousand times that you'd like him to not do that, and yes, you're right, he doesn't seem to care. However… (don't you just hate that word sometimes?) the decision about whether or not to succumb to temp - tation or pressure – as dif- ficult as it might be – still lies within; nowhere else. In effect, it lives within. As long as we say things like, "She made me…" or "I had no choice…" or "It was too hard…" we are committing to stay put. I've seen Aunt Margaret when she's ticked off and I don't blame anyone for avoiding a Hatfield-McCoy blow out. But, whether we're try - ing to lose weight, increase our income, or just plain be happier; as long as we al- low others to determine our actions, they're control- ling us. It's understandable that sometimes the "social price" we have to pay to fol- low our path doesn't justify the return. Again, I'm not plac- ing value; been there, done that; I'm just analyzing. So what prompted this rehash of a previous topic? I'll come clean. I caught my - self giving control to an in- animate object last week. For quite some time, I was on a tear; dropping pounds faster than a bear market at the London Stock Exchange. (Oh, c'mon, that was clever; stop groaning.) Yet, since the holidays — and yes I know they were three months ago — my mojo has lost its caffein - ation. As I stared at the red LED on the Scale from Hell, I frustratingly said to my- self, "What gives? Why isn't my weight coming down faster?" In that moment I re - alized what I said. If you didn't catch it, read the sen- tence again… "Why isn't my weight coming down faster?" "My weight" is not a be - ing; it doesn't live. There- fore, it has no control over what it does; it is merely a reflection of actions I have taken. If I really want to get out in the philosophical weeds, the scale does not even reveal what I weigh; it measures the effectiveness of decisions I have taken with the goal of shedding a few pounds. In either case, it's all about me, nothing else. I hope that's clear; but let me take it deeper. Have you ever caught yourself say - ing something like, "My di- et's not working?" Okay, maybe, losing weight is not your thing; but I'll bet you've uttered something like, "Nothing's going right" or even, "This sucks." Each statement might be true. However what's certainly true is that as long as we view our diet — or any event — as something with its own direction, we are leaves in a forceful river; pulled along with no choice of control. "The diet" might not be working – yet I can change how I react to that. "Noth - ing" might be going as planned – yet I can adjust how I react. Outcomes might — or might not — be what we hope; but we con - trol how we react.
