How unfortunate, indeed. Nothing's "good enough" for me. Something twitches in content even when my flesh is spent that thing itches in my soul-- turn base metal into gold... "Better than before" won't do. Time denies the term, brand-new-- ticking tarnish through the day (surely there's a better way) and even if I could deny this urge that pushes me to strive-- How could I know all I could be Declaring, "Done--serenity!"? This thing I find so maddening screams at me to search for more... How unfortunate, indeed. I'll never have a moment's peace until I cease to be at all becoming new--some other thing only then to ask "What if?" |

I remember being happy with just what I had and just what I was...but now, I don't think I'll ever be happy with what I have and what I am, or what I will have and what I will be, no matter how much I don't know if that's good or bad |

Dixie? Yanno? I don't know either. It's late (or early) smile, and I am wondering how evolution could occur at all in the midst of contentment. I'm thinking it can't and I hope I'm wrong. Thanks for reading. I hope we both can sleep soon.  |

Nodding at this... I know this feeling... and I'm not sure if it's good or bad either... just that it 'is'... Yes...sleep...soon...smile...  "When the power of love overcomes the love |
