Just my luck that things turned to sh*t…

I realize it’s been a while since I last posted but things are in state of transition right now, and hopefully for the better.  As part of that transition, I’m being a lot more organized in the way I do things, this blog included.  So look for new post in the near future and on a more frequent basis, if not a predictable schedule. 

Being organized isn’t foreign to me, but it’s been a while since we’ve been seen together.  But with so many changes in the pipe it’s a good time for us to become reacquainted.  I’m not and never will be a New Year’s resolution kind of guy so this wasn’t something that was planned as part of the whole cyclical new year ritual most people engage in.  None of this was planned nor is it at all my decision or under my control.  I guess it’s just my luck that things turned to shit when they did.  Now, what does this all mean? 

Changes!  And a lot of them are apparently well overdue.  Who knew?  I admit I haven’t been oblivious just accepting, and that was a mistake.  I’ve been walking through life with my eyes wide shut, fully aware but content to just be content and never putting myself first.  But my eyes are completely open now and that didn’t happen in a gentle way.  More like someone held me down and tore my eye lids away from my skull, and that shit hurt like hell.  But now, I not only see everything very clearly, but I am no longer able to, as I’ve done for so long, selectively close my eyes to the things I would rather pretend I didn’t know.

Now changes are inevitable, whether I wanted them or not, and I’m determined that those changes will all be for the better.  Part of being better is being a lot more prepared and organized, and making more time for all the things that matter to me.  Some of them I’ve always given my best to and that will not change.  But there are many others I haven’t given much thought or attention for a very long time.  My writing is just one example.  It (among others) matters a great deal to me, so expect to see a lot more of it from now on.  If I’m lucky, it may even start to matter to you as well.

Thanks for all the support… Be well!
