Almost Blue

For a number of reasons I - obviously - haven't felt very inclined to actual writing these past few days. And that's a rather ominous sign of that things aren't all that well in the world according to undersigned. I have absolutely no intentions in sharing any details as to why I'm feeling, well, blue. Let's just say that sometimes one less than pleasant thing gives another and that thing gives... And suddenly there seem to be a whole lot of things on the scale of unpleasantness to deal with.

And no it's not because I'm the great procrastinator, it's simply a case of getting a bad hand from life now and then. As usual all things are relative, and it could be so very much worse, but for me, right now, it's a bit too much of the blue thing. But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger - and that's a cliché I can truly endorse.

And I'm constantly aware of the fact that things have a tendency to work themselves out, that the look of life is once again auroral after a good night's sleep. That there is a long and exciting, promising and extended road forward. At least I still try and keep that good, comforting thought always close at hand when things get a bit too much. Come spring, come new beginnings. Come life.
