Storm clouds

So my very first boss MDS died of cancer yesterday. The consummate politician who was often misunderstood but proven to be correct most of the time. Our country badly needed leaders like her. A great loss indeed. Maybe her death wpuld serve another purpose, that is to galvanize us all and make us think of the consequences of our choices. A salute to you!

First it was the kitten. Then the news of his engagement. Then a face to face with someone who really hated my guts. Then a confession that there was still that love which I could no longer reciprocate. Then a death foretold. This week has been an emotionally tiring one. Work has been a distraction and an irritation at the same time. Looks like I will never get to see the rainbow's end. 

Something died in me today

John Doe just died. And with it my hope for a future with you. Just learned that you will be getting married to her. I guess I never mattered to you at all. To have my heart broken in two consecutive years. I want to grieve but I can't. 

Survivor

I picked up another foundling today. Took him to the vet. Put his name as John Doe. If he survives, he is going to be John Snow. Another symbol of luck he is. Can't wait for him to come home. 

Lost and found

Hindsight

Do not pursue the past. Do not lose yourself in the future. The past no longer is. The future has not yet come. Look deeply at life as it is.

Sad

My body is on the mend from this nasty cough. Sure wish my heart would be too. Stress has followed me to my new job. I miss my comfort zone. Just goes to show that money really isn't everything. When will I ever be content?
