Engaged

Today I was very engaged in thoughts and things other than my work. This was odd for me. I suppose I needed the break. I was preoccupied with thoughts of others close to me.

I can't heal the pain others feel and that pains me. It's a flaw in my personality I can't resolve. I've been this way since a child.

I cry for others in pain and try to be there for them with hopes that in some small way it will ease the pain. Maybe that is vain on my part to think such a thing.

We all have to experience bumps life brings about, I suppose. My mentor once told me, "Trouble doesn't miss anyone". I am just naive enough to think we have friends and family to help us through the bad patches. It won't be the first time I was wrong.

Enjoy Life!
