The way the sunshine hurt my eyes when I woke this morning, was just something exaggerated by my mood, amplified to give me something to complain about. The way I missed the light switch three times, before I finally turned the light on, was just another addition to the beginning of a melancholy day. My disgust for sleeping late again, simply isn't enough if I can't admonish myself silently for the rest of the day. When the eggs didn't crack just the way I wanted, I grumbled and cursed at the shells in the pan. When I almost dropped the knife on my toe, I cursed even more. All of these things and mishaps even more, shouldn't be so important. I shouldn't be so grumpy, For all the small things are trivial, Compared to the real things going on around me. |

Ahh, gentle one, you had some of my Viking brood it seems, but knowing you, a smile will soon shine, as ever was before...very gentle smile |

Life's little annoyances swell when larger discontentedness looms. Ride around with me for a day and you'll feel blessed. Enjoyed. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve" |
