The Stand…

It rose suddenlyb-
a trembling
rocked the stones
they danced in manic glee.
leaves staggered in confusion
fall guiltlessly.
no one
not one
to be found
no one around.
a pregnant cloud takes up command.
the outporing at hand.
still
no one
not one
around.
the winds whipped
cat-o-nine whistled
skin broken
blood spewing.
no one
not one
around.
they all ran
both wolf
and sheep.
One must die.
Which one will it be?
Batttered
buffeted
strained.
Build up or
scatter.

Hack It

Life sucks! Yes it does

I’m sure you’ve said this. Don’t worry. You have a big choir behind you echoing the same line. This response and call is a community of various ages fed up with everything. So, what do we do now? Do we sing until our throats are raw with the regrets and disappointments that make life suck?

Well, we could just hack it. We must find a model that works for us and pursue it. Listen, this sounds easy, but it’s hard. When you think you have things figured out, things happen, change comes, then you have to bend with it. Trust me, there is never an end game in sight! It’s just another stage of the game to pass to get to the next one. But you have to hack it! There is no other choice if you want to keep moving. Forget about conventional success play by your own rules and don’t get trapped in a cycle you did not choose. Take the lessons and use them, don’t just lose them because you will need them. Be grateful (I’m sure you’ve heard this before), but trust me you, will need gratitude when things seem impossible. Your life experiences cannot be solved with someone else’s solution or timing. You may be before and you may be after but the time stamp solution is the right time for you. Figure out what’s your thing and do it.
