Before I share, I feel I need to set a table so to speak.
My aim in these posts is not to tell anyone what to do, how to think, what to believe or how to live. Rather, I simply hope to share the thoughts, words and moments that were intended to impact, direct and change me and my life for the past 60 some years. Those things just don’t happen. And as Mr. Einstein once posed; “Coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous.”
Rarely did I hear and follow. Sometimes I may have listened and then chose to ignore. Oftentimes, I just blocked things out because it was gonna be too hard, they meant I was wrong and my ego was contused. Ultimately, I thought I could just handle it all later.
Funny how fast later can creep up on you.
I just was not ready for surrender. Stubbornly, still not. Daily skirmishes and battles continue to this hour. But this too needs to change. Will change. Surrender is beckoning.
I just want to write. Offer ideas. Different perspectives. Share others’ words. And perhaps become a friend.
Maybe even the one next to you – or me – in that foxhole.
There.
That being said, here is today’s QOTD:
Too stony.
Too stony indeed.
