To Drown Or Not...

Isn't it a little funny how life can either take you completely under or leave you floating atop with the anticipation of going under at any moment?  In the narrowing of a split second, your entire world can suddenly change right underneath you without warning, leave you breathless and before you have had time to analyze that, it is once again changed.  Me? I'm an advocate of loving change for the most part.  I think it strengthens our person, teaches us that nothing in this life is permanent, nothing at all, and in order to survive it, you must be expecting these inevitable changes regularly. 

I tend to agree with Buddha's theory of understanding you are not here to live a fun and good life, but rather a life of strife and woe.  See this, know it, accept it and when you have a moment you consider precious, be ever more thankful for it because it isn't going to last. 

Don't get me wrong, I would for once like to have something in my life that literally moves me, that creates an absolute peace inside, that pushes me to want to be a better woman. Perhaps that is the next stage in this mystery we call life or perhaps this is simply as good as it will ever get here on this earth.  Sobering to think.  Aw, hell..all this because I'm avoiding delving into my algebra homework tonight. ;)  Perhaps Buddha could have offered up tips for algebra before he left.  ☺
