addict every day, i accept that as fact and live accordingly. even though it has been quite some time since i last used, i accept that i am not cured, or as i once heard, you cannot change a pickle back into a cucumber. this will be a brief dive into what is happening today, as i am busier than i had originally planned to be. first off, a shout out:

Brenda E
Congrats on Thirty-One (31) years clean


i am getting a bit put-off about how little time i actually get to myself these days, as looking for work, feels like more than a full-time occupation. time and again when i am just getting rolling into learning something new, my phone rings or i get a txt from some unknown sender. i have to be okay with all of that, and IF i choose to, i will have to put some limits on when i am available and when i am not. my first attempt at setting those boundaries, failed in a huge way, so back to the drawing board. i am worth being courted for a new job. i am worth finding a new position that fits me and my skills. i am also worth getting some “me” time as well. so it is up to me to find the balance i feel i am missing,. just for today.

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 2

1) He whose boldness appears in his daring (to do wrong, in defiance
of the laws) is put to death; he whose boldness appears in his not
daring (to do so) lives on. Of these two cases the one appears to
be advantageous, and the other to be injurious. But

When Heaven's anger smites a man,
Who the cause shall truly scan? On this account the sage feels a difficulty
(as to what to do in the former case).
