Your own personal Jesus
There are so many things that seem to be having a boomerang effect lately that I’m wondering if I flew into a time warp somewhere between Istanbul and Shanghai. Caught up with an old colleague of mine for drinks this evening and you’d think that the meeting in and of itself would have just been a pleasant how are you doing – instead it shed light on some of the goings on that one might be privy to on the outside, but for some reason not on the inside, and most of these facts have head shaking reverberations and make me feel as if a lot of the work I’ve been doing is all being sucked into a huge vacuum.
Alas, these things must be put in the category of “this too shall pass” as I focus on what really floats my boat and not worry about the inadequacy of others’ decision making skills and the effects they have on my daily life.
Seeing familiar faces today, all day, made most of my day fulfilling, and as far as the parts that were shone a light on – the parts I was blissfully unaware of, but not surprised by, all of those facts belong to a category called – why give a fuck if they don’t? I’ll answer that one later.
For now, suffice to say, I fall back on focusing on what gives me satisfaction rather than carrying the torch for others because in the end the art of selfishness gives back to the greater good eventually. Trying to understand things outside of my control is only grist for someone else’s mill.
