Appreciation #6
I have been a bit melancholic lately. Which means I am now a melodramatic whining brat. Mister K knows this very well and is one heavy sigh away from disowning me. I’m trying to keep from having that seep into my online voice. Whatever that means.
Let’s see. A peer passed away of illness in the past week. Some family drama. Some work stress. Some sort of feeling that I’m not where I am supposed to be. Whatever that means.
Even then, there is something to be grateful about. I am alive. To worry about such existential pretentious stuff. Meaning of life has no meaning for the dead. At the same time that I mourn yet another death of a young person, I am grateful I have more time to do something meaningful while I am here.
Yet, I also feel like I am running out of time. You can never outrun Death. But sometimes you forget that it is a race. Is it better to forget? Am I to perform better under stress?
I need to do better.
