![]() Living is in creating a story. What is your story? What's acting out in your life? What is driving you unrelentingly onward? Is it a belief in a better tomorrow? The man assures me his mission is almost complete, just a few more transactions and all will be well. That was yesterday he spoke. Now is this day, that man is no more. Death plays the joker with all our expectations. What prevents us from seeing the reality? Just look at the thought patterns swirling in our heads.. Seeing the wretchedness is a kindly mirror of how we lock ourselves up in our particular stories!

Stories usually have a beginning middle and end. A reflection of a persons life. The beginning sets the scene for what is to follow. And although the end closes the story......the middle is the really interesting bit.

Perhaps we are forever in the middle bit, goldfish in circular bowl on repetitive spin, meeting repeating shocks, ecstasies and dismays, eternally bewildered, fear grinding the sullen philosopher to stick to his particular story!
