You ruptured my tire and my desire
You threw beckons and heavens at others
I could only envy so many a plenty
I trudge forwards choking on your words
Oblivious of the ditch that lies in my pitch
The lemons you threw in my avenue
Saved me a stellate a bullet and a pellet
I never knew how a new bad fortune
Could ever save me from a worse misfortune

Beautifully chosen words and can’t agree more. We crib but fail to acknowledge that we are at a better place than many and must have gratitude and the realisation that the bad could have been more worse but we were saved.
Great post indeed!!

Love that quote. I try to not fuss too much about misfortune, especially if it makes me late, thinking that it might be saving me from an accident or something.

Such good writing! It seems we are drawn to what we think are greener pastures…just to find that the pastures have more weeds than we had in the first place! Looking forward to reading about the “rest of the story”!
