just life...

by pollygarter @ Sunday, Jul. 27, 2008 – 13:44:28

Today life feels like it is conspiring to put me at the bottom of others' lists of priorities. Nothing major and I'll snap out of it - Sometimes it just pisses me off that if you are one of life's copers - that's what you are expected to do.

Sometimes I want to go around giving so-called weak people a bloody good kicking as everyone rallies round them. I won't, of course. Kicking - literal or metaphorical - is not my style and I am understanding of fact that not all who are 'weak' use it as trump card, but sometimes being strong is a fucking pain!

The sun is shining and I have a lot for which I should be grateful. Ho, hum, off to count my blessings...

Oh PG I do know how you feel, perhaps I may also understand the catalyst for it. But, yes, whatever, I do know that feeling, when the world takes and it feels as if it is not restoring anything to you as wholeheartedly as you gave.

  Thanks, menhir, but even here I prefer to protect the weaker - especially as they can't answer back!
  I just needed to vent so I did.
  "when the world takes and it feels as if it is not restoring anything to you as wholeheartedly as you gave" sums it up beautifully.

    Yup - I fully appreciate the caring element in all directions. I would be the same. Apart from individual circumstances, it is in our natures, bearing in mind the similarity in our personal work ethics.
    
    Confession time here PG - I did know that you were venting; it oozed out all over the blog. It's a useful CB technique which, at times, fits into a blog very well, don't you think.

      Ooze? I think spitting might have been more accurate!
      Better out than in as they say...

        I can hear the sparks spurtling, hissing and as you say, spitting, loud and clear.
        
        Ooh heavens, yes, why hold in the emotion when it can be safely unleashed.
        
        I do hope you can feel and sense me oozing some 'give' in your direction.

        Thanks, much appreciated, M!
        
        Ironically the thing that really cheered me up was me doing good stuff for others. It's nice to see people enjoying themselves and it's nice to feel appreciated!

        I completely understand - gregarious people not only need people, but when it is combined with other traits, 'doing' with and 'giving' with, works.

Ohhh, How I know that feeling too. When one is a mover and a shaker...you know the saying: if you want something done, give it to someone busy. The weaker one is, the weaker one gets. It's a very cosy frame of mind and spirit.

Personally, I am a strong advocate of a good kicking. But I am not emotionally involved with this particular case, so that does not count. Everybody has their style. I prefer biting.

  Thanks! it was only the emotions I wanted to share rather than content. Agree about cosiness - nicely put.
