Eyes inwardEars underwater
Focus, hyper-focus
Planned to the minute
machine-like precision
multi-tasking
thinking, producing
living up to making a living
they are waiting there
standing there, watching there
dependant, depending on me,
no point in talking, no time
people are living, hoping,
believing, speaking, wanting
I think. Therefore I no longer feel.
What good is working at making a living
when making a living makes me a machine?
Why do I ask? They deserve everything.
Options are months away, and we must eat.
Sometimes when the stars are aligned perfectly
and the paper on my desk is piled just so,
my mind can process so efficiently,
there is only one way to describe it.
I am a jerk.

No you're not! But you do get kind of distracted sometimes (as i also do) by the forest and can't see each little tree which needs watering. hugs and kisses, the garnet heart.
BTW, two emails to you got returned. the carnival is up at 9 am. do you have a permanlink to "the song" you sent me?
I should talk. I like to let the rain do it's work when I can't water every tree. water, water, smiles, me.
A suggestion Ms. Liz: GTD. It has quite a following in the web.
Maybe it can help you in the way it's starting to help me now.
No!
Being able to get 'in the zone' with something you wouldnt choose to do, something that isnt a passion, now thats a gift.
Time flies, in the zone so get an alarm clock ;-)
Good ol Decarte! LOL
I used to have a bumper sticker on my car that said:
"I think, therefore I screw up!"
-----___@#$%

Taorist,
I'm not sure I know what you mean. The fact that I am talking aloud about something is a sign that I have dealt with it.

Hi Kelley,
You heard exactly what I was saying between the lines.
Yes the truck is still trucking.
Gosh I haven't heard that for the longest time. I can see the little guy now. Keep on truckin'

The pressures of our economic system to often take us away from those that we love, for far to long. We have to make choices that are anti-family, in order to maintain a family. It's counter productive.
I wonder how much longer this can last?
BTW - you're not a jerk.
Hey Toadmaster,
Spoken like a true and loyal friend and thinker.
I appreciate it.
Liz
Just listening.
'I think. Therefore I no longer feel.'
Sometimes a line just smacks one in the face.
Yes, Jackal,
That pretty much describes it. Hard line to the face. Not a nice feeling in any way shape of form.
