Life, As it May Come to Pass
The last couple years have been, for me, a rebuilding process.
The goal?
Get out of debt, get some savings established, get re-established as an independent entity.
It’s been a struggle, to say the least – but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
The hardest part is, with the hours I work, and the hours I sleep, it’s very difficult to stay connected… and when I do, I’ve been doing so little, besides working and sleeping, that I really don’t have a lot to talk about.
I’m feeling more than a little disconnected from the reality that some would call a “life”
I’d like to make more of an effort to reconnect with people I care about, but they mostly have “real” lives these days, that would make 4am phone calls something to be discouraged… and then there’s the distance factor – 1000km is actually a pretty long distance it would appear.
All of this has led me to lead a very, very introverted existence – I mean, I’ve caught up on TV shows I missed, I’ve seen a lot of movies, but really, I haven’t done much. I went into this phase thinking that, after a couple years of disconnect, I’d come out the other side with better means to reconnect in a meaningful way, without being weighted by all the mistakes I’d made over previous years.
Of course, that may never work… but I’m getting closer to the point where I’ll be able to at least try.
