pesky growth

I finally got to exactly where I wanted to
be, she said, so why won't all these
growth experiences go away & leave me
alone?

story of the day, sent to me by a little birdie near and dear to my heart...
are we ever exactly where we want to be - or do we just tell ourselves that? life is flux. we wish the high points to stay there suspended in time, and 'growth experiences' are just euphamisms for things that suck ass (as my dear sis in law would say)..

growth is pesky - and thank god for it.
the only thing scarier than life being bad is life being static.

Amen solarkitty. What life giveth,
life taketh away, or so it seems.
It's funny how we think we know where
it is we want to be and then when we
get there ... well we see something
new to desire, or worse, life
pulls out a new deck of cards and
declares "jokers are wild". So maybe
it's advisable to go through life as
a joker, wild and free with no rules
or goals. I doubt it. Perhaps life
expects constant compromise on our
behalf, while we on the other hand
we seek stability and continuity. Is it the teachings of our culture that
diametrically oppose the laws of nature and life? Beats me, I need a drink!
