March 10, 2016

Hello, everyone! 

Do you remember the ups and downs I was talking about a few days ago?

Well, this day was a definite down. 

I was disappointed by the weather – yes, it is spring, you can feel it in the air but why does a beautiful day have to be marred by a dull rain? I am always for a strong rain, which would bring revival but not the comatose weather that dominated the entire afternoon and evening.

Storms are much more appealing. At least you know where you are and the blood pumps faster when the thunder strikes followed by a strong lightning.

I was also disappointed seeing that art became a financial purpose instead of sticking with the natural one of bringing joy and sharing words and helping people evade in a new world.

Either the definition of a writer is something different from what I know or I am completely lost in a dream world.

I was also disappointed in the book I read – too much description and too much drilling into feelings and doubts related to feelings. Everything else disappeared behind long paragraphs of nothingness.

I don’t see the meaning of tens of chapters when the book is so dimwitted that you can’t even find the strength to get to chapter five. 

However, I wasn’t disappointed in friends. There are some of them that know what a friend should stand for and manage to bring a smile on your lips even when you think that the gloom and doom are endless.

Neither Rex disappointed me. Predictably, he chased all the planes crossing the skies above us and all the dogs that dared to take a stroll by our house. 

As I pointed before, this is what life looks like: up and down. Maybe the today’s disappointment will melt into tomorrow’s joy. The only thing to do is waiting and seeing. 

Tomorrow I’ll ride the TTC. I am sure there will be things to catch my attention and alleviate my boredom. 

So, let’s talk tomorrow. 

​Be happy, wherever you are. As the ancients used to say: May the Gods smile upon you!
