Sad Birds Don't Sing

Today's entry finds me dealing with my old familiar nemesis... "the cholies" (as I've heard my friend Randy's wife describe it). My assessment of my current situation is simply too many of life's painful circumstances stockpiling in my mind without the slightest intention of paying rent for it's extended layover. While an honest assessment/confrontation is vital for one's emotional well being, like the middle of the road, I highly don't recommend hanging out there for too long. If you do, you'll inevitably get mowed down like an armadillo on a west Texas two lane highway just after the bars close. If only during these times of heavy precipitation I could calmly & quietly remind myself there is a natural order & rhythm to our lives. Like the tide that moves in & goes back out to sea, for better & worse, our lives, circumstances & surroundings are always and forever changing. Roll with it baby.
