Random thoughts of an anonymous man
Looks as though I am slacking again.... Letting my blog slip. I suppose it is because the majority of the time I use this as an outlet to vent. Things have been great as of late, and I simply don't have much to complain about aside from events in the outside that are out of my control. My house appears to be in some sort of order, my side business is growing, the weather is great, I feel great.... things are good and I feel like I am indeed in the drivers seat of my life. It is unfortunate that this kind of happiness is not easily transferable.
I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me... but it's hard to stay mad, when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst ... and then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life...
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Just a reminder to everyone not to go silent out of frustration. Keep speaking out. Giving up would be doing a disservice to our kids and grandkids.
Not much to add for today. Things are still good. My eagles lost, but they at least looked dignified. Talks of peace between Israel and Palestine. Picked up a new CD "An American Prayer", by Jim Morrison. Appointments tonight and all week. It feels good to be back in the sun.
op·ti·mism n. - # A tendency to expect the best possible outcome or dwell on the most hopeful aspects of a situation: “There is a touch of optimism in every worry about one's own moral cleanliness” (Victoria Ocampo).
Maybe things are coming together for me... It feels like the sun is again shining. My side business has turned out to be incredibly rewarding spiritually. The money has yet to materialize, but the relief I bring to my clients and their families is incredibly gratifying. Maybe I have been chasing the wrong dream, looking for a quick score... merely chasing after material wealth. As a young man in todays world that seems to be what everyone is looking for, the path of least resistance to buy more "stuff". I realize now that I may have been blessed with my abilities to help people not just to chase after the quick dollar. The road of my life has forked and I have chosen to take the road of my heart not the road of society. Wish me luck.
