Today

Life is seemingly approaching an unavoidable collision.
This was written, this past July...it was editted to protect the innocent.
Today
Today has been a trying day Many things have come to a head It appears as though my work is insufficient to meet the redonkulous schedule I would hazard a guess that my replacements are being brought in It is very frustrating that much can't be done to improve progress and that the dates that are given appear to only be best guess and totally abandonable by all whatever the reason You make the deals but a word and a handshake no longer mean shit My wife loves me My son is the bomb I am flying out to the middle of nowhere to be verbally berrated for that which I cannot change or control I long for a simpler life One if less stress One with Less physical restrictions I long to ride my mountain bike To be transported to another world To forget the shackles of his materialistic society To recommune with nature To live life rather than bear thru it I wish I could be stronger yet long to be weak The horizon is remarkably beautiful A quiet beauty roaring above the droning of this pollution spewing beast I wonder what is next What will we become Where wil we go What will we do Sometimes I feel the crushing of loneliness The desire for comfort The want to belong, to be accepted and to find my reason My acceptance of working to make money so I can give it away has fled No more No more will I be a pawn, no longer will I sell this precious time doing busiwork that has no meaning, no cause, no end There is more much more to be had much more to live for There need be ways to do better To live a life I am proud of To own a career that inspires That breathes passion That isn't work but rather a will There is so much to miss out on It is time for a change It is time to read more A time to grow relationships To find my place To fight my demons To slay my fears A time for rebirth I wonder I wonder what to do Who I am Who I see in the mirror How to return a fire to my eyes How to find balance How to renew health How to stop the madness How to accept my weakness How to cry How to long How to see past the past, past the present How to step boldly into the future The seat next to me is empty There is the good of this, More room for selfishness There is the bad, I sit alone Our finances worry me, Our spending, Oh our spending. I must find a way to reduce my commercialism I must stop procrastinating It's time for a change Not just spare change
Real change
