Bed & Break Fast

If I ever start a bed & breakfast I'll call it the Inn Good Co.

In Good Co.

Begining to enjoy my own company, first required my own silence in the company of others.

1,000 Mine Fields

The journey of a thousand mine fields, begins with a single step. Step carefully my friends.

Of all the things I have or haven't been, and of all the things I may or may not be, there only a few that will leave me with regret. That regret however, will be great.

It Was A Very Good Week

Age takes the weeks that once felt like years, and turns that into years that now feel like weeks.

No Ragrets

As a much younger man, I always believed I would die without regrets.

I was more wrong than I could have guessed. 

The weight of it is heavier than I could have imagined.

Win or Lose, We'll Know Soon

The casualties are high, morale is down, and we've arrived at the balancing point...

To keep pushing through and fight until it ends one way or another, or to count our losses, walk away, and live to fight another day.

Be, Leave, the Gilded Cage

If you could believe, in this place at this moment, that whatever difficulty you're experiencing right now would be the worst thing that would ever happen to you...what would you do to see it through to the other side? I imagine quite a bit.

That said, it probably isn't the worst thing that will ever happen, but maybe, just maybe if you can get through this  you'll have what you need to get through the next worst thing, or perhaps the next worst thing won't seem so difficult.

Would you leave in the middle of a movie because you couldn't see how it might possibly end well? 

You paid the price of admission, you might as well enjoy the show.

All the world's indeed a stage and we are merely players

To quote 80's pop icon Howard Jones:

And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be, the door always must be left unlocked.

To love when circumstance may lead someone away from you; and not to spend the time just doubting.

What is love anyway? 

Does anybody love anybody anyway?

T-I-Double G- ER

They say that disappointment is the result of unmet expectation. 

That being the case, then it seems to me that one sure way to ensure continually disappointed in anyone, is to leave your expectations unexpressed.

With And Without You

To live with and without simultaneously.

I'm Not the Rooster

Hide your head in the sand long enough & often enough, you'll start to notice that everything smells like dirt.

I don't know what I'm supposed to be anymore

I sure do miss being with you... not that what I feel matters that much ultimately. I wish you could talk to me as much as I wish I could talk to you. I've been a selfish asshole over the years, and for that I have named and admitted my sincere regret. You have also been a selfish asshole, but I have yet to understand your position  beyond the justification of why your actions are vindicated while mine are not at all.

AFI 2

I am aiming for indifference as a mark of growth, because sometimes not pursuing what you want is the only way to get what you want, if it was ever to be had at all.

AFI

Aiming for indifference is not what I thought I would aspire to as progress..

 and yet here I am.

Indifference As A Virtue

When aiming for indifference becomes my mark of progress, I have to wonder what is it I'm progressing toward?

Aiming for Indifference

It's all you can do when what you most desire is not yours to give it receive.
