Constant irritation is like that humming sound in your ear after being at a concert.
Its like having a blocked nose and thinking back when you could use both nostrils.
Its like that loud Co-worker with that too perky voice that greets everyone before I have had my morning coffee...
Thing is, I expect that voice in the morning.. And if I don't hear it, I start to wonder where she is.
I slept with a bad pillow for a month, and struggled to adjust when I got new ones.
Sometimes I roll my eyes so far behind my head, that I think ill lose my sight, but its my coping mechanism when dealing with situations, I may not stand for.
But for some reason, once I deal with the annoyance , I seem to miss it somehow.
Like letting go is supposed to happen on my terms not others. Like I'm in charge of what happens to me...
----> I come back to the space in my head that reminds me, I am only in charge of how I react to what happens.
I may not appreciate miss perky in the morning, but she wakes me up. albeit its against my will. its good for me.
All thorns have their purpose, Sometimes we may not realize it until it stops pricking us.
Do we not miss school, as much as we may have hated it?
Are thorns just the devils we know over the ones we are yet to discover?
Id like to believe that they are preparation for something worse to come.
They teach us, acceptance, tolerance and patience.
The Stem that holds the thorns carries the rose.
Until next time..
