Chris Writing Anything

2025 has begun, and, thankfully, I can catch my breath. Right now, I have no Christmas gifts to purchase, no family parties to attend and no God DAMN viruses to ail me. I’m slowly easing back into operational mode…and it feels excellent!! So, I’ll write a few short paragraphs, and I’ll take my time doing it.

I’ll start with this…

Besides work, I really have no obligations. When I think about my lonely situation, really, actually, I think to myself, “Is my solo lifestyle a blessing, or is it a deplorable curse?”Heck, I mean, it’s what makes me free, but it’s also what I detest.

When you have no one in your life, you can do whatever you want. Yet, when you have no one in your life, you can’t really share your life. I try to keep busy, I take on tasks…yet…I feel guilty. I mean, I’m the only one impressed with myself…and that’s Narcissistic.

So, now, alone in my home, with my thrift store art tickled by radiant rays of sunshine, I sense the world is around me…surrounding me. Am I part of that crazy mess?…or am I an exhibition at some inhumane zoo?

Believe it or not, as I remember my childhood, I remember a white bengal tiger. I remember my fear, but I remember being ticked he was there. Because, as he paced the glass, eyeing me voraciously, I realized he wouldn’t be intently staring at me…he’d be doing tiger things.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not thinking of doing harm to others. Yet, I know, if I had others in my life, I’d be doing more ‘people’ things.

But…what am I talking about?

I’m writing this, and, later on, you’ll be reading this…and that’s human interaction…and that’s a great reason to blog.

Have an Excellent Day!
