Well, for the first post, let me tell you the story so far. It’s 2:08 am on a Wednesday and I can’t sleep. Much has been going on in my life lately and some of it is weighing on me tonight. I’ll go into details later, but it seems the promise we all had as young children of happily ever after was about as substantial as starlight and just as fleeting.
This is not to imply that my life is all gloom and woe. I do have the love of a beautiful woman, pets and a home. For many people that would be enough, and you would say I have nothing to complain about. True enough. But all things in life come with complications unforeseen and to some extent unavoidable.
All our experiences and personality are products of the choices we make, weather good or bad, and we have to live with those choices. Every bad situation you find is the product of choices that were made by individuals, even if none of the later effects of those choices were foreseen or expected. Got into a car accident today? you made a choice to leave the house this morning… Husband left you? You made a choice to marry him… And before anyone reading this gets strange ideas.. I’m talking about myself and my culpability in the situation I now have to live with.
I’m sure thats an overly simple and cynical view of things, but dammit, its now 2:20am.. I’m tired..
