So, it has literally been 10 months since my last post. I guess I just got tired of the political sphere we’ve found ourselves in, realized there’s not too much that can be done except praying, voting, writing, etc.
So why the resurgence in my desire to write? Maybe because a few things have changed, maybe because I feel I have some time back on my hands and maybe just because it is a Monday – I’ve fluffed the socks, done the dishes and am waiting for my wonderful bride to come home. Who knows. Who knows if anyone actually reads this thing anymore besides me. Ehh – such is life.
Friendship. I posted on my facebook page today that I was “amused at the moment. Not in a humorous way, but also not quite in a shocked way; more of a disappointed pondering.” You see, there are times in your life when because of past experiences you can almost anticipate the results before hand, yet continue to hope for the best in the meantime. Then, as if history has cruelly repeated itself, your predictions are proved true and your thesis confirmed, and you want to be disappointed, yet you can’t. You wish you were surprised, yet you’re ambivalent because you knew what was coming all along.
