It’s important to keep on keeping on, to feel good about yourself and be happy with who you are.
Sonia Rykiel
Yet another sleepless night, feeling sorry for all the bad things in my life. The ever present worry about my health, windstorms, thunder pouring rain. When I thought it couldn’t get worse it did. It seems that I now have a hernia. Extreme pain in my groin. I can’t help thinking that there are forces in my life keeping me from accomplishing, anything.
Even this morning everything that I did turned bad, I slipped and almost fell, spilled a jug of freshly filtered water, I couldn’t reach for it, I was trying to lift something heavy. Most of that jug spilled out. And I just realized I forgot to put in a new jug to capture the filtered water. I kept on going no matter what I encountered and eventually got to sit and have the one good thing, a perfect cup of coffee. I guess there is a minor force working for good.
I don’t have family or friends, just me and the cats. It is what it is. I just keep on keeping on. I guess what keeps me going is knowing that someone out there has it worse than me, poor bastard. I don’t mean I get any joy from that, just keeps me thinking that someone else out there is surviving just like me.
Twice now I have looked out to see a deer close to the house. Yesterday it was a young buck, this morning a doe. The buck stood less than twenty feet from me and listened as I talked, then after a couple of minutes it ran into the forest. It is nice that they have found some sanctuary here.
