It occurs to me that this must mean something.
That I keep returning to that thought,
not out of psychological repetition
or cognitive dissonance,
but because it means something,
because there is a point to it.
I will never have money,
I know that now, and accept it.
I will not find commercial success
and carry designer bags on my arm.
But with no one throwing money
at you
you never have to sell out.
This must mean something.
I will revel in the grime,
and suitcases
and trembling streets
until I know what it is.
That will be your art.
Just you wait and see.

If you're not fighting for the thing that will make you happy, then you're wasting time that isn't necessarily in great supply. Live happily. Take it from a person stuck in misery. oxox
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree with you more. I am beginning to suspect that the struggle is worth something in itself. Get bored with complacency.
ReplyDeleteI sincerely hope you will not remain in the muck of misery for much longer. Take your own advice. Live happily.
