Feeling

Leave a comment

“Got a crazy feeling I don’t understand.” What a great line in the song Ozzy’s Flying High Again. I’ve had a lot of crazy feelings in life. Good thing I stopped acting on most of them. But many remain and surface every now and then.

I don’t know what I’m feeling today. A mixed bag of emotions, then again isn’t every day. I have trouble staying on an even keel. I worked hard and feel good about that but I’m restless and frustrated. So, time to turn it around this evening.

Sometimes I read inspirational quotes I’ve saved. The one today I liked was –

An artist cannot fail; it is a success to be one. – Charles Horton Cooley

Which has inspired me to finish a painting tonight. Might also attempt some night shooting. I’m certainly going to do some writing. And get a plan for shooting for the next few days.

Random Thoughts of the Day

  • I’ve got to finish writing a note to a good friend for his anniversary.
  • Confidence to overcome problems is a very strong asset. It’s gone in ebbs and flows in my life, but I feel it returning.
  • Lots of people are pretending all is fine, when it’s not.
  • So far, I don’t need any of those meds they advertise on TV. And I hope I never will because they sound worse than whatever they are treating.
  • Sometimes I feel like it’s too late. I hate that feeling.
  • The last day of May and I’m disappointed in a lot of things. Going to do better in June.
  • I’ve got to call an electrician and get some work done here instead of seeing if I glow or not.
  • I may have picked a bad season to start letting my beard get longer. It’s getting grey. I wonder if I could play Santa? I’m sure I could get it that long by the time the season rolls around.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
