I think I'm normal

What is normal? Everyone I know has some level of illness including the "normal" mental illnesses - depression and/or anxiety. Once the word bipolar is labeled there is no more normalcy allowed by loved ones, employers or society. The trick then is to take the meds and try one's hardest to appear "normal" in public and never let them see you be other than normal - a daily struggle.


The pall of life...

Aug 25 2009

Life is so full.   For me it's kids, work, music, art, movies, driving a good car, watching the ocean, smelling the early morning mountain air.  Life is time - marked by time's passing.

It's fleeting, passing, unattainable in the end.   I drive the same roads that Ron drove but there's no memory of him there.  I walk in courthouses he practiced in for 30 years, but there's no memory of him there.  I drive by the church where his funeral service was just 4 days ago, but there's no memory of him there.   While his life created memories in people the people are also fleeting and passing - the memories will die.

We're told that time is like a grain of sand.   We're also told that we make a mark in time.  

I don't know the answer right now, but time feels REALLY big to me right now and I feel really, really small.
