61.Chutes And Ladders

Hello again, and today is Thursday, November 15, 2012. Now, sometimes I feel like life is a huge game of chutes and ladders and our goal each day is to get a net increase in our score. Some days I definitely know where on the game board I ended up. Usually when I'm so sure about where I am its because I know that the day wasn't the best. Other days I know because during the entire day I ran a dopamine high. But sometimes on days like today, I don't know if I made a net positive, and don't know by what factor in either direction. I know I went up a ladder so fast it sounded like if I was pulling a lawn-mower to turn on: rungungrung. But then I know I screeched down a chute. Really I don't know where on the board I am and don't really want to, because right now in my head I've gained ground today, and I'd like to keep it that way.

As always,

ZenMercury,
Keep calm, and play the game by your pwn rules.

I think a lot about many things, but don't like to think about one thing too much; I'm kind of a rambling man.

Flying Through Goals

I close my eyes, Imagine my wings. With the blessing of the angels, I fly with the kings. Through the clouds, And past the sun. I still remember, The past mistakes done.

Should I Take Risks?

I'll teeter on the precipice, Worried to go faster, So much fog and ice ahead, I'm scared that I can't master. I'll stay here on the very edge, Take risks.

Anyone

This is for anyone. Who ever had doubt. Who once felt alone. Or just wanted to shout. Our lives are so fragile. They break they don't bend. So we pick up the pieces. And we try to pretend.

I Talk Too Much

My intentions are always good. But sometimes feel misunderstood. Don't confuse my actions. With unwanted interactions. When support and help is needed. My words are often well heeded.

Hello again, today is Monday, November 19, 2012. Today I'd like to ask the question of why. Why do we care about the things we care about.

Nervous anticipation Tingles down my spine. It feels like the right thing, It feels as though it's time. But there's a little doubt, In my flurried mind. What if it's not meant to be.

Now And Then...

Occasionally, my mouth, she runs off and ends up in the gutter, with egg on her face. At her age, she really should know better. But, I guess that's life. We live And we learn, We twist And we turn.

Regrets

We are allowed to have minor regrets in our lives, like why did we buy another pair of shoes, or why we ordered the large coke.
