Friends,
Life is full of shit sandwiches. We all gotta take a bite and swallow it down our gullet. We do this as we strive to keep ourselves distracted that we are actually eating shit. We keep the dreams carved in our heads that one day we'll get to move on to a tastier meal, or that the taste will not effect us as much. We ALL got big plates of shit we gotta scarf down. It isn't "woe is me." Its "woe is US."
I have many things tripping me up this last week. Service Engine Soon light on my Bat Blazer, the horrible election we're rolling through, work woes, worries about my dad, dreams plaguing me, motivation stops, sickness, energy levels, dieting ups and downs, depression, anger, confusion...
...but I'm keeping the train on the tracks.
Its all we can do, right? Keep chipping away at the things that hold us down. Set the goal, work your ass off and be patient. That's what it all comes down to.
I do have some things to be happy about. For instance:
The only thing keeping me sane lately is my ability to express myself creatively. I have many outlets from the drawing, writing, audio and video stuff I do. The dreams in my head swirl as I continue to carve out my little corner of the world. I work hard to shut out the distractions that keep me from my ultimate goals in these things. I think by the end of 2017, we'll see them all come to light. For now its just about hunkering down and getting it all done.
Today I am going to spend some time writing and then go somewhere private to work on pages. I need this jump start to happen. My personal "check engine soon" light is on. But hey, still got some good miles left in this jalopy.
