is it special, or just another journal and still it serves

cheering you guys on ...from here!


feeding the good wolf here -


had an interesting morning at work -


the weekend had my mind all turned around with new ideas,


possibility and torment from outside my self


there were good new experiences


surprising happiness and frustrating dynamics...that left me feeling


flummoxed and twisted...


going back to work today was hard - I determined though


to make it a great day - and it would be a great day -


keeping on - keeping on -


and that got the day done - 


choose the attitude - eh?


I did my work - and felt along the way an openess to accept


the multidimensions of each of us - going along our paths


imperfect and full of the quixotic essence of what each of us is 


as an individual, rational, prickly, worried about work or whatever... 


and towards the end of my shift I started to have


some foreboding sense - and yet after some internal struggle with that -


I weighed the intrusive darkness on a scale..would it really be awful if 'what


I thought would happen' if it did? Or would it just be a kind of matter of fact thing


that would make it just another day? As that kind of turn of events has happened before!


...I was happy with that - and happily surprised 


by it too - 


So I came home...and what should I write about? I wanted to spill the beans of my


day's success and yet that action felt senseless and indulgent -


I tried to employ my mind to just do it and not be so lost in the writing


or outside of writing....if i can work on this crazy journal I can also work on something else too. 


Build build build create create create.


I might have the gnarling wolf inside me but perhaps I can push him into the right direction?


I'll get on with the day!

Talk of wolves makes me think of the cartoon when city wolf and country wolf go to the city and one must refine the other.

Hugsies Marko.

I had my Tuesday appointment with my doc. It went well. Though she noticed my sullen sense.
I’ve been sitting here ex post facto trying to put away dark thoughts and I realized I had stopped thinking about
What I want. I thought of how I seemed to be encouraged to fulfill that Greek maxim to Be strong and beautiful. Then I started to think on how I want to be in the world.
Again I’m inspired to embrace humanity.

Glad your doc appt went well. You mention a lot about perfection themes. But seem to want to he human and embrace humanity. Just pointing out that you can be human and have a spark (not greatness nor perfectly arcing talent, success, etc) and still be a stand-up or outstanding citizen. And I think many of here think you are already of that greatness caliber.
