The marathon that I referenced previously is now back on… but staffed by zombies… this is just plain weird. Guess I’m going to need stamina.
I was in The Netherlands on Tuesday and Wednesday. One nice thing about trips is that I get to cuddle up with a good book… mainly on the plane rides and late at night at the hotel. As usual, reading helps me come to realizations. Mind you, this time a lot of my good thinking happened cruising down the Autobahn at 160km/h. Anyway, this time, I just realized that life is cyclic… sometimes it’s scary… sometimes it’s fun… sometimes it’s bad… but it’s all been done… and will all be done again. The best thing to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy it as best one can.
My friend notes that we’re going through the 5 stages of grief.
- Denial: Yup… we went through that.
- Anger: Yes. That passed quickly… no time for that if you want to get things done… need to channel it.
- Bargaining: Yup. Doing that now.
- Depression: I think that happened before bargaining for me… like Anger, that also passed quickly… or… I channelled the Anger to get rid of the Depression.
- Acceptance: No way… uh… does that mean I’m back to Denial? Darn-it!
