I routinely get into a self imposed funk; partly because Its how I focus, and partly due to the fact that I want to be where I am not - God has seen fit not to make me the ruler of the world...that is decidedly a good thing in all seriousness. But as I drift into solitude and seething; I remember something that causes me to feel inner contentment that I have not known since I was a small boy - I can do this shit and I can do this better than anyone because its mine. I own it - you do too - you own your life and goals and you determine how far you rise or fall just as I do.
Now isn't that as comforting as a mint julip tea on the porch with the dog at your feet?
