The World Is Ending, Now What?
After almost 2 weeks of dealing with constant requests for following up and sorting out, from 8:30-5:00 Mon-Fri, I have come to one conclusion
Everything is a crisis.
I'm not the first person to have a take on this topic and I won't be the last, but here is the thing, by the time you read this you will probably have at least 5 crises of your own that you just now remembered because you read this (depending on how you look at things of course). In the past few days I have realised that we as humans have tried to do what the Lord himself would not, give us more than we can bear.
The last couple of posts I have written have really been from the control-freak aspect of myself which I have no doubt some of you share as well. And for good reason. However, it is from that very standpoint of being controlling, that I write this.
Ever since a major life-changing experience (not near-death I might add), I have realised that despite our very best intentions that we really can never do more than is humanly possible, yet we condemn ourselves to feeling daunted. So you may find yourself like Chicken Little today because the world is ending; what will you do?
While this world "ends" I have decided to exist from another. A whimsical world, invisible to others but where I may exist within some semblance of order and control, while maintaining my own peace of mind.
It is the bubble.
It is for the most intents and purposes impenetrable. It helps me to realize the more urgent "crises" from those less so and I may continue with what has become a consistent process of resolution.
I may seem crazy for saying this, but while I'm this bubble, with the madness that does and will persist, I am ironically, the only one who is not *chuckle*
Peace & Love
