Yes, it’s been a while since I posted anything.
Suppose there’s a reason for it. The only things that I’ve lately experienced has been crap to say the least. Therefore, I had a choice. Either just spew that crap and make somebody else miserable, or get over myself and move the hell along. Fact is, like I saw today on FB – everything happens for a reason even if that reason is that you’re stupid and made bad decisions! And that’s me in a nutshell. Not so much stupid, but the bad decisions, even if it was just the one, it was a biggie as bad decisions go and I’m still paying the price for that. But hey.
Life actually goes on. Which brings me to a thought that I had when I came home tonight. About life going on. I’m reading The Dark Tower series again. And in there their world has indeed moved on. But there are other worlds in those books. As the boy, Jake, says to Roland just before he fell into the chasm – “Go then. There are other worlds than these” And as I greeted the two dogs I have left on coming home tonight, I could still see the ghost of my old man in his usual spot next to the gate. I heard his whiny bark letting the whole world know that I was home. But the world has moved on.
Alas. As much as things have indeed moved on, there was no progression. Only a kind of regression taking place. Kind of marking the pace, treading water, waiting for the next blow to fall, the next bit of bad news to land on your head.
Reading the books I’m reading now just brings the end of the world to the forefront. Because, let’s face it. What’s happening now all over the place sounds like the harbinger of doom, not so? And it’s only going to get worse. And if you look at the bigger picture, where we now live in the light for the most part, the darkness is taking over, slowly but surely. Greed has become tantamount. Avarice the new religion. The poor are getting poorer and the rich greedier. Eventually though, should things carry on the way they are now, we will all be equal.
I have come to the conclusion that I can’t do anything to change my fate. I can apply for jobs. It depends on fate if I will get any of them. I can meet men. It depends on fate if I will find one that’s worth keeping. And as such I will carry on searching. The never ending quest for a decent job, or at least a decent way to make money from home. The everlasting quest for a man of worth, or at least one that I can tolerate in my personal space.
The variables are legion. And I just have to give over the fight to Somebody better qualified than me. I can’t do this on my own anymore. It’s become a daily struggle to just get up in the morning. A struggle to hold my tongue when I see the stupidity and no care people handle other beings with. To realise the fact that there are people out there that cares nothing for the effect they have on others, as long as they are sorted makes me sad. Because they won’t listen or even see what I mean. They are entitled. And that’s also our own doing.
So there. I have no strength to struggle anymore. Time for me to just do what I can and leave the rest to my Superior Being.
There sometimes does come a time, as with being carried out by a riptide, when the sensible thing to do is concentrate on staying afloat while one is taken further and further offshore, and wait for the current to take one back in again. It almost always does.
that’s all I can do Col. Try to stay afloat while the current takes me.
I’m hoping a log will come around sooner rather than later though!
A luxury yacht would be even better!
I’m thinking as hard as I can, “BIG LOG FIND MY CYBER FRIEND, CARRY HER TO A GOOD PLACE!”
thanks P 🙂
From your lips…
Nothing I say will be of help, but I do send positive vibes your way.
Thanks for the vibes Tess – they do make a difference. Suppose this is a hole I’ll have to dig myself out of quickly!
Big hug ~ HuntMode
Thanks so much P!!
This is a good reflection, G. One word “Surrender and relax” ok two words.
I’m not having much success with either P!
sometimes the panic strikes me and I can’t breathe, but I usually live through it.
Just have to take it one day at a time I suppose.
I understand, that panic can sometimes be a hindrance. Practice, practice, practice. Then by the grace of G-god, you will better. 😛
And now you have a whole weekend to gather the resilience you need.
One can hope H.
as we get older it is harder to find new people who fit with us
Much harder Sidey.
I might have to give it up as a bad job eventually 🙂
the harder we try sometimes the less happens, then when we least expect it….
Be that as it may Sidey – there comes a time in your life when you just have to face facts…
