I’m late!

I woke up the morning all groggy wondering what the time was. I often get a ride with my neighbours to the train station. It saves me from having to walk on unpaved paths by the side of the road. They usually leave at 730am. I rolled over and grumbled mightily when I saw that the time was 721am.

So, I ran all around trying to get my things together. I ran downstairs and managed to forget to turn off our security alarm. Bleh. I nearly freaked when I noticed that the alarm was still on. Luckily, I didn’t set it off…which is odd when you’ve got a big lumbering guy like me scrambling down the hallway.

I made it out on time. No worries.

It’s a new day.

Oh yes, absolutely, it’s a new day. I’m riding a wave of optimism right now. So far everything is going alright. I’ve picked myself up a mantra of sorts when my mind goes astray and wants to drag me down into issues I’d rather not touch. I just repeatedly think “I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care…” and it blocks absolutely everything out. It’s working rather well, and I hope that it continues to do so.

Why the month title of “Phoenix”? I didn’t even realize I had made the connection, but I suspect that I thought of it subconsciously after reading the Horoscope a few hours ago.

Everything is fraying at the edges and will eventually turn to dust. But from this dust will come fresh forms to start a new life. So what you deem as failure is that very dust from which a new episode of your life has already begun.
