About
This evening, it is cold, and the rain sprinkles softly down. My internet is down, my books all read, and I have nothing important to call anyone for. Even the paper, as usual, filled with things others think I should know about or have an opinion about, nothing important. I've made all my appointments, I've done the dishes, I've even cleaned the bathroom. Tomorrow, I have much to do, but today... There is nothing that requires my attention.
I suppose, if I wanted, I could invent work for myself. We all have those various projects to keep us busy. We have light bulbs to replace, things to go to the store for, files to organize, books to put away, etc... But why can't we just face up to the void?
I put on some warm clothing, so that I might face up to the cold for a time, and go to sit outside. While there, I make a mental list of what sort of things are going through my head. I feel useless, while others are working hard. I feel stupid, while others are able to find ways of relaxing. I feel as though I have no friends, while my phone only rings for work.
I have a struggle with myself to not run to the store. Not that I needed anything from the store today, though I would tomorrow. I forced myself to stay, determined to try and relax somehow. Thankfully, anxiety eventually gives way to contemplation. I finally hear the voice of my soul, which had been wanting to speak with me for a long time now, but I have always been too busy.
So many things I could be doing, and tomorrow I would do them. Today, however, I am doing the most important thing a man can do; listening to himself.
