Time wounds all heels.
We can but hope.
While we're waiting for time
to do its durndest, however,
let us remember that life is adventure,
not predicament,
not catastrophe.
We might all benefit
from inscribing this thought on our hearts.
The Eeyores, for example,
who never met a situation
that wasn't a predicament.
Likewise the why-me crowd.
In my dotage (in my elderhood, I mean to say)
I find myself screaming
(internally, of course)
"Suck it up, you molly-coddlers!"
I've wandered from the topic here,
which was the mild suggestion that a simple shift
in point of view could reap
whirlwinds of change.
Life is adventure
(to be sought and embraced)
not a predicament from which to be extricated.
What trauma was the origin of the
"predicament" mindset?
Doesn't matter.
I need to shift to let it go.
Adventures R Us from here on.
Maybe.
