I Don’t Know What To Do

I do know that I have to stop being pissed off.

I do know that I have to stop speaking in frothy expressions…

I do know that I can’t read their minds.

I do know that asked questions are not necessarily going to get answers.

I don’t know why I ever got into a relationship or a marriage.

I don’t know why I had children.

I don’t know…

I am tired.

Best Advice Ever

Only once in my life have I gone to a fortune teller… It was in Vancouver in 1985 which means I was 26.

The Fortune Teller was an Asian man not more than a decade older than me and didn’t offer one piece of fortune telling prophecy.

Instead, what I remember was he told me to take care of myself, take care of my teeth, go to a dentist, eat fruits and vegetables, meditate, get proper rest and things of this nature.

All of it good advice however at the time I felt ripped off because I was expecting something different.

In hindsight what he was telling me was, “Don’t be afraid to invest in yourself… Which is about the best advice I’ve ever received.
