This Thing we call Life


I took this from a friend's wall on FB. It's true though, isn't it?

There'll be times when you wonder if this is all life is ever going to be, because nothing's really happening... no one's doing anything out of the ordinary, there's no crisis, no job changes, everything's just the same ol, same ol.

And then BAM! The shit hits the fan. You feel as if you cannot breathe, you don't have enough hours in a day, you're running out of time, you have a million things to get done and your nerves are shot!

When I saw the quote I asked myself which state I was in. BOTH. That's how I'm feeling right now. Things at work are good. Uneventful. Or rather, there are things going on that I'm dealing with, I'm stressing about. But that's BEING handled. So it's not really panic stations there  yet. 

My personal life is stable but within that stability there are so many changes happening in my head that it's almost like I'm a different person every time I start a new day. I'm seeing things differently, reacting differently, trying on new behaviours and patterns almost on a daily basis. I don't know if this is self-discovery or neurosis. But whatever it is, this push and pull of the two existing in the same space kinda balances everything out in the end. The turmoil within the mundane.
