   Existentialist nonescense
Time and time again the question arises: what is it all for? I sneeringly answer "why it is all quite an accident, didn't you know?" But now I consider that I am mistaken and revise my answer.

I have seen and have acted. I am learning to look beyond myself, and at the same time, to myself for answers. As a child my grandparents, my mother- adult were my gods. They gave me direction, praise,reprimand, opprobrium; I trusted them and they were my world. When all of that ended I was left in somewhat of a solemn state- unsure of even the breath in my lungs. Still they knew what (they claim) I could not- because of my age. They held money, authority, even respect over me- I was powerless to their will. "What is this all for?!" I would ask myself. I wanted escape, but did not know how; I was frustrated, held in a prison of their limitations, their passive aggressive approval of my pitiful attempts to fly and fail. They never taught me how. What could I do but flounder and fail? Exhausted at my own impotency to effect my own life I begged whatever powers could hear me for meaning.


I see now what I could not. I am making things happen, because I now know that I can. I've been given an amazing gift, one of love- and faith.
"What is it all for?!"
.....for the future.
