Attitudes
|
Sometimes life goes easily, and we relax and let it flow; sometimes life will not flow, and we worry, doubt, and fear. At these times, any little thing gets blown out of proportion. Time-wise, i.e., re personal pain and discomfort, physical or mental, very little ever actually goes wrong in our lives; a greater percentage of our time we are comfortable and we actually more or less enjoy it. Except that we will worry, doubt, feel anxious, fear, sometimes allowing it to escalate into obsessive-compulsive paranoia. This is the difference between peace and discord: the flow of life. |
I am still connected, all evidence to the contrary. I still feel, a part. I am worthy of being alienated, I have the background to relive it. I was alienated as a child, coming out of it to survive, then retreat. Now, as spring nears, I feel the urge to rejoin others once again. Keep in mind, I'm not what I appear to be. That's only half of me. So much more exists, so much I can never take full advantage of. Everything I want is always available, if I will only but look for it. Yet life is not a tragedy because I allow opportunities to pass by. |
