...I'm Miserable Now. .....yes, it's a "The Smiths" song title. Why does it have to be so difficult to survive the work day, even the work week? Why does it have to be that everything in life has to have become so stressful, and so many people are so demanding, uncooperative, and generally incompetent? ....especially when you're trying to help them! Why do we have to continue to change ourselves to compensate for the dishonesty, laziness, impatience, and selfishness of the inconsiderate people we encounter? One can only imagine the reasons are many, and quite complex. We fear the start of the new day, pray for the work day to end; and do this until the weekend arrives and speeds by leaving us repeating the vicious cycle, over and over. Before we know it, years have passed, and too little time is left to make a change. The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, but do we have the energy and determination to see if it really is? Life is too short to live it in misery. Time is too precious to sit idle and endure that which makes life intolerable. Do you wish to smile at some point of your life, or do you wish to merely endure it? The answer lies with you, and what you do about it..... Character, Carina for Genesis by Godin Hair, Gregoria by 3Dream and Mairy Props from too many sources, and lighting by me.
