Which was and is the problem really because, ultimately, it's the only thing that keeps me mentally healthy and spiritually alive. I spent years doing day jobs trying to stay physically alive (i.e., "maintain")... but it became increasingly tedious, exhausting and difficult. I guess I was hoping for miracles... depending on angels... living with one foot on the other side... so, like, if all else failed, I'd just give up the ghost and say goodbye. I still struggle with that. I guess I always will. And, c'est la vie! ;-)<br /><br /><br />Dia Sobin (Araqinta)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03398194511342193439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098887240471953238.post-4109725440468503432017-01-25T17:15:16.495-07:002017-01-25T17:15:16.495-07:00Maintaining is important.
