Don’t Sweat It

So… the middle is a lot longer than I expected. Who would’ve thought? Wait. What if the middle is like, really long? Now that I think about it, I don’t remember the beginning. As far back as I remember, I was already in the middle. On top of that, I don’t think we really get to know the ending either? Are we always the middle? Is the middle forever? How do you cope?

That’s the question isn’t it? That’s life. Just one long middle. I think maybe you just try to find your way to enjoy the ride. It’s harder for some to do, myself included, but I’m not sure there’s any other option. Like my mom says, it will all work out. I just don’t know how, exactly. But that’s ok. Zoom in, the sun is shining, the dog is healthy, we’ve got enough food for dinner. Work will come. Things will work out. You’ll be ok.
