Too Tired to Care |

When the tired gets the best of me and I begin to wonder who I am, why I exist and to whose benefit When the feelings float by uncatchable in air of disregard and the reflections age the look I ask myself why Why that full moon of yesterday no longer holds the promise Why I am mind trapped in a reality of loneliness Why words have lost their meaning and letting go changes nothing And the only rest I get is in the hands of time. "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

There was a time, you must believe My life was dark. I couldn't conceive Of loss of job and marriage too. I found myself what's known as blue. I sought to know the answer now! To soothe these blues someway, somehow. Alas, my pique found this refrain. In time, in time, you'll ease the strain. I like your instrospective thinking about the whys of our lives. Nice writing.

There is the exhaustion our bodies experience... and the depletion of our spirit that makes going on seem so impossible. Worse is the combination... a tiredness so bone-deep we can't fathom it ending... or survive its continuing. To whose benefit? Mine, dear lady... I read your words and know I'm not alone. |

Okay M, I have decided you need to spend New Years with me. I am going out to dinner first then over to a friends boyfriends party. He is renting a pole (the dancer kind) and watching what happens after people have a few drinks should be fun! People watching is always great fun. I hope the cure for your lonely finds you soon.

Thank you Suthern.... I had a special visit on here yesterday...and she definitely picked me up. I wish you had been able to visit in Florida with the rest of us. Thank you M Well Susan, I think the closest I can get to the pole dancing is to join a new gym only a mile away..maybe then I won't just come home from subbing, eat and go to bed exhausted..maybe the exercise other than bending to the little ones will give me the energy I need...besides I need to tighten up in places... I am fine..just lonely especially at holidays with family not near enough and without my sister who could always make me laugh and feel better about the world. Wishing you a happy new year and the best to come... M |

I have asked these same questions. Haven't found the answer, yet. |
