Every Once In A While

Sometimes the world just seems laser-focused on fucking everything up. This is one of those times, I don’t need to mention all the bullshit, you can probably guess. At times like this, I shut down and walk away from the chaos. I try to go as far away as possible to find inner peace without all of the chaos. 

This time, things were different. I am experiencing the greatest highs while everything else in the world seems hell-bent on destruction and death. I wondered if there was some cosmic yin and yang happening with me caught in the middle. 

Thankfully, I maintained as much calm as I could. I brushed off the crises, but the sense of unease remained. Unfortunately, the concentration required prevented me from writing each day. 

I try to find the bright side to any situation, so while I missed writing, I think  that perhaps I needed the break from it because I probably would have become too involved in the worlds’s chaos. I didn’t need that intruding into my own little Private Idaho. I listened to my heart and didn’t write for several days. In hindsight, I know that was the best decision. 

Now, I’m trying to start my inspiration motor again, making sure to filter out all of the negativity, hate, and violence. There will be plenty of that to go around.
