Headstall's Reflections - 39. Chapter 39 Self Indulgence and Trying

A pathetic rant... and a kick in the pants.

Headstall’s Reflections

 

 

Chapter 39 Self Indulgence

 

 

Sometimes Life’s a bitch

We all know it

Sure, she gives us bounty

But she steals from us too

Slowly or quickly

She decides

Sometimes so fast

You lose your ability to breathe

When you least expect it

Snap!

You’re shit out of luck

Makes you wonder

If she doesn’t thrive

On cruel irony

You finally figure out what you want

The right thing for you

No

You finally figure out what you don’t want

Clear vision after years of blinders

Snap!

Your ticket’s punched

How fair is that?

Or you find that one—finally the right one

Snap!

The other end of the country

TWICE!

Fuck you, life

Yeah, wah wah

Crybaby

Tomorrow’s another day

Maybe I’ll feel differently

But today—TODAY, life

You fucking suck

And if you don’t agree with me

Screw you and the horse you rode in on

Don’t try to placate me

This is my rant

Hard to be gracious

When I’m gripped by the balls

Just do me a favor

Don’t gloat

Leave me be for a goddam minute

Pick on someone else

While I lick my wounds

 

 

Trying

 

 

The sun kissed me today

Took me in its warm embrace

And topped up my soul

Stayed with me

While I fought to regain balance

A comforting presence

Like a lover's touch

Piercing the darkness

With rays of peace and hope

The crunch of snow

Beneath determined feet

Adding music to the warmth

Reminding me to keep moving

And that I am not alone

I’ll see you tomorrow, sweetest sun

And I’ll bask in your love

While you and time work your magic

Feeling lost, and trying to find my way. Thanks for reading.

:hug: and :thankyou:
What am I thanking you for, you may wonder? For putting words, well thought out wonderful words, to what we all have felt from time to time.
And the sun! How wonderful it feels when, not feeling at all like the you you like to be, and you step into the sunshine. Oh yes. Like a hug from a dear friend.
I'm sorry as hell you are feeling lost. And yet feeling blessed that you have the words, and the courage, to share this with us. :heart:

So you went for a walk in the snow ... there was sunshine and fresh air. You say you're lost, tim says no just misplaced, I think perhaps just touched by a bit of winter dormancy with time you'll bloom again. All things in its season. Namaste my brother.

Yeah, that's pretty much how it appears, dugh... not quite all of it, though... thanks for being there... cheers.. Gary....

Well said, molly. :hug: Thanks for understanding, and for the support... cheers... Gary....

Hey, G-Man, no worries. :hug:
How many times have I done the same thing--countless numbers...especially when life just seems to say 'He hasn't suffered enough, let's screw with him some more...'
So, complain away--you're doing it in a way which brings understanding to us, and elicits waves of sympathy and empathy back to you...and if I may say...smiles too.
Someone has the talent to share with us those things we feel, but don't have the words to confess.

Thanks, buddy. You're right... we all need to let out our frustrations sooner or later. Sometimes, Life challenges up in the most difficult ways... cheers, my friend... Gary xoxo
