May Your Moon Never Hang Low

There I was, all resolute and prepped-up to be more spontaneous about stuff. I got egg on my face for it just recently but, nevertheless, I was determined that it wouldn’t stop me...not with other people, at least. And, here I am now, completely unable to act on the resolution.

I’ve just found out something about someone I used to know a very long time ago. She’s a lovely, lovely person, always ready with a big, winsome smile. She belongs to the category of people I can like instantly. The kind that, according to me, have goodness written all over them. And, I used to really like her.

I’ve just found out that she has cancer and that it’s not looking good. I’d like to be able to reach out and be supportive, to help in any way I can, but I don’t think I will. I can’t! Because it’s never as simple, is it? There’re these damned complications, the protocols...arrgh!

I really, really wish it works out for you, C. Hope you get well and spread a lot more sunshine! For whatever it’s worth, my best and sincerest wishes are with you.

And, for whatever it’s worth, I wish for lasting happiness, good health and greatest peace in the new year, and forever, to those I hold close. Glad tidings and the very best.

The End?

Off to the studio with what I think is a decent-ish ending...something that’s been eluding me for days!

If only I could work out other things in life like this! :-)

A Christmas Carol

Just got back from the studio and can’t help but think that this project is a bit like life, when you can see things go to pieces in front of you but you can’t do anything to fix it. It’s like the BD life, actually, a bit up and then plenty down. Anyway...

What the Dickens!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us...

I was looking up something for work this morning when, accidentally, I rediscovered these lines. My first thought was that, as much as it’s from A Tale of Two Cities, it also holds up as a pretty good description of bi-polarity. I’m surprised I didn’t think of this before! Anyway, so, I looked it up on a hunch and, right enough, he is also suspected to have had it! :-)

Solita Sin Soledad

The woman in red just breaks my heart...
