My Brave New World
I’ve learned to wear fuzzy pink blinders. Foreign wars? Bums? Gun violence? Global warming? There’s absolutely nothing I can do about these things, so I skip along to my own selfish beat. I embrace the skill in ignoring people and things that are troublesome. I used to worry about what the world was coming to, but have since realized there’s absolutely nothing to worry about as it’s out of my hands. I’ve also learned that people are fleeting things and to pack them away when the time is right. Everyone has a journey: with or without you. Bless those who are on their new path and continue on yours. I know it’s my new coping mechanism. That of indifference. It’s my control of the things I can’t control. This is a good thing for me and I’m not sure if it is permanent. But I’m at peace.
