Eva’s Byte #319: Things I Can Do Without
Inspired by the song, “Shout” (Tears for Fears; 1984)
At the world level, these are the things I can do without:
Pestilence. War. Poverty. Homelessness. Incurable illnesses. Racial Tension. Political Foot-Dragging. Domestic Violence. Environmental Jeopardy.
And, the beat goes on.
At the ground level, these are the pesky, aggravating, short-lived things I could have done without this week:
Waking up to no hot water.
An air conditioning unit spewing dirt.
A prescription delivery service that didn’t deliver.
In my capacity of a writer, I’ll give a shout out for finishing Chapter 76 in my Contemporary work in progress. About to begin drafting Chapter 77, I could do without the anxiety I harbor whenever facing a blank page. At this juncture along the novel’s journey, I foresee no more than five chapters left to write.
For every single thing we can do without, there are many more things we can’t do without.
*May each of us look on the bright side of things to foster our own well-being.
My sincere appreciation if you’ve read this far.

May you have a pleasant and productive week ahead.
