Wounds

[muleman]

Life is a series of injuries and wounds. Some physical, some emotional and others financial. Some heal quickly while others become infected and drag on. Some heal so completely they leave nary a scar. Others leave their mark for eternity. Still others cause severe damage with great pain and suffering and never show their presence. Just my thoughts while studying the ceiling a while ago.

It's also s series of joys, hopes, loves, and faith as well. Some day it's hard to see it that way, but it is just as much true as what you've said. The cup is half full my friend.

Well sometimes the joy is as simple as when the scar quits itching. other times it comes from bringing a smile to folks close to you. True happiness is fleeting and hard to hang on to. Sometimes it is all just damn confusing.

Recently the physical pains have been surpassed by the emotional ones. Healing it seems, is not to be for a while. These wounds will be life changing for what little is left of it. Which will cause the greatest damage is hard to determine at times.

Ah the poet philosopher in you is coming out. Hang tough muleman. Tomorrows sunrise and sunsets will be spectacular.

We all have our scars. Lord knows I have mine and they are long and jagged. But when ever I catch myself wallowing in self-pity, I remember that poor little helpless SOB in Bangladesh that never had a chance. Makes me feel all better.

 

[muleman]

Well you can wallow in self pity and I will pray for relief for your suffering. Running around pissing on other folks discussions is very "youthful" and may be what you need to keep yourself in the safety of your shelter.

It's all a matter of perspective, Muleman. I'm sick. You're sick. But there's always someone sicker, and they're coping just fine, blessed by the moments they have. Where oh where do they find the strength, the will to go on? In perspective, my wounds ain't so bad. I must buck up.

looking at things, pondering them, feelings of grief an confusion over the types of wounds mm is talking about is NOT wallowing in self pity.

And proof that mm isn't wallowing is all over this forum.

wow. that pissed me off...

you keep pondering mm. and even if you do ever need to wallow for a time, I will sit with you.
sometimes we all end up there in the wallow pit.
It's the moving in and staying that can be a problem.
and I dont see that as an issue with mm.
