Shelter

Would you stand still despite the pouring rain? When the icy droplets course down the warm length of your skin? Would you stand and keep asking why the rain had to fall? Why the sombre clouds in the sky stood stoically between you and the sun?

Would you find shelter from the storm?

I noticed, a while ago, why I used to get all fatalistic and piny and all. You know the whole I'm a tortured soul, nobody understands me, boo-hoo routine... Yea, I used to get that alot, and yea it's piti-fool, ;) and uh-huh it probably has alot to do with hormones. It also had alot to do with the way I looked at things. Maybe I enjoyed morosely brooding over the solemn sentimentalities of life. Maybe I liked the whole I'm complex act. It's not that alot of people knew about it or anything. It was more for my own benefit. It's strange, we lie even to ourselves, or at least we try to. Maybe it made me feel special. Tsk tsk tsk, what a sad sad lil person I am...

I've found out, that you are what you think you are. You feel what you wish to feel! It really is that simple.

I used to keep telling myself that, 'Gawd, life is futile' and 'Why try? What the @#$%^ point?!?!?'

I now realise that what I was doing was equivalent to intellectual suicide. If you keep dwelling on something it will gradually and inexorably comsume you. I of course, trusted myself completely so I was hapless to the insidious workings of my traitorious mind.

If something is really bothering you and you must think about it, then think of a solution. Stop watching the raindrops; look for shelter.

You just have to look at things right.

Everything and everyone is beautiful. True beauty does not flaunt itself for all to view but remains hidden and is all the more exquisite for its modesty. Like unsung heroes they change the flow of history though nobodies watching. The tree still lies on the floor though not a soul has heard its fall from glory.

So now what do I do now?

I wear a raincoat!!!

Did I just say that? Gawd what a cheap joke. I am the lame maister... ;)

Raindrops keep falling on my head,
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red,
Cryings not for me,
No,
I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining...
De dum dum dum, de dum de dum de dum de dum dum de de dum dum,

LoL...

I'm a sucker for cheesy classics.

G'nite,

Godbless.
