Why Do You Bother?

I just read my last two posts. Am I always this depressingly philosophical? Do I try to rationalize life and existence--and if so, to whom? You? Me?

Just once I wish I could write something a bit more upbeat. I guess I could if I tried; but trying takes effort, and lately I've been too sick to breathe, let alone blog.

Tune in next time. We'll see what happens, you and I.


And so it goes...

Some of us seek more out of life that has meaning and substance than most. I have tried to delete "what if's" from my thoughts (not a total success, I might add). I firmly believe that it is the sensitivity of our spirit, the depth of our souls that dictate these feelings of, not failure, but unfulfillment. The majority of people, to my mind, waste their lives in pursuing meaningless goals, seeking meaningless gratification from mundane and empty goals. Assuming that they even have a goal. If you are a thinker, you are to some extent a philosopher and and consequently moved to more dissatisfaction or at least disappointment in ourselves, whether justified or not. I too, have taken stock of my life and the conclusion that I have reached is that "I tried!" Beyond that I can't change what was or might of been, simply move forward and keep on trying. Just wanted to take a moment to share these thoughts with you.
