Down the Rungs
A hard-fought climb becomes undone not with a heavy fall but slips down the rungs. Isn’t it like fate to throw another dark force your way as you’re on the way down?
For people who don’t drink or take any drugs, prescription or street, who don’t drive with excessive speed, who won’t have s*x outside marriage or gamble the mortgage, the question is, WHAT TO DO?
Many of you know this.
Will you tell?
Regress?
I think so.
Past solutions press. End of summer means a visit to the place of Christian fellowship and finding God,
Pawling, New York and Rye, to see the ocean which is really the sound. It is a struggle to do this but I did.
The visits were fine for the moment and yes, that sense of place is seeping down into the soul.
Redecorate the house?
Buy a new Scottish Fold?
Regressing to wanting to play iconic video games which here were the first Hobbit game by Sierra, Syberia, and the first Harry Potter. Does that make sense? Does it have to?
One day I will copy JK Rowking and get the ‘Remarkable’ tablet she boasts about. Her son gave her one. Now she shows how she can write on the screen by hand and convert the text to the Cloud and so on. There will be a new book to write.
Who knows?
