Haha I think it was Neil Peart who had a quote I read “adventures suck when you are in them”. I think these challenges are adventures in this respect. A little time will go by and they will be chocked up on that trophy case of shit that you conquered.
I am feeling the same thing with family and business and finance ignoring all of the community and world issues that so desperately need my attention. I just sit here in my curation chair and try and find some humour in all the sticks being chucked at my spokes and be proud I am still happily cycling.
Sometimes I wonder if when we die, we will have a chance to see a rundown of all the random statistics that made up our lives. How far we walked, how many breaths, how many times we failed to do what we set out to do. Would be interesting!
I think it is a good way to look at things. This month, has been dreadful, but I hope that I am seeing the brighter side of it, than just dwelling, and having a little fun in the writing process :)
February will be better, right?
It will be in part if we decide that it will be that way heading in. Not entirely I know but some of those things on the fringe of being not good get cancelled by a good attitude.
If my escapist friends are right afterall and this is a simulation, then you may have your stats list when you are done!
I actually quite like the theory, as it is practical. If it is all a simulation, may as well swing for the fences.
