Forever Is Very Close to Never
Today I am feeling a lot better. It all started yesterday as 1) I returned to work so there is little time to ruminate and 2) I just kept getting good news one by one. I need to remain humble even though I was floored by news after news. It’s amazing how the course of a few weeks have caused me to go from extreme to extreme. Bad news, bad news, horrible news, anniversary of the death of my son... Things come, and things go. Each day I’ve tried to meditate as much as possible, and even though it’s difficult under current conditions at time, but I still do my best to find something (anything) to smile about. Today, it was a hitchhiking lizard. Can’t make it up. Had to slow my car to a stop, ease the little lizard off the car so I wouldn’t feel bad about him falling to his death or something. Years ago, I would have just driven at a higher speed and done away with the lizard, but I've been trying anything and everything to stay grounded. Emotionally right I am just calm...
