It’s in the nature of life that we would encounter ups and downs in our lives and at times it can be trying, confusing and overwhelming. I should know as I had been there before (how do you think I get to be near the half-century mark kiddo?) though I still don’t like going there when things are grim and life just seem unbearable and when the pains and hurts are searing and you just wished it would all end. And end it would if we could just hang in there for a bit longer. And you should as it is an inescapable truth of life that there’s suffering and we unfortunately can only grow through pain. No one is immune. Unless you don’t live your life that is. I know as I have suffered too but the details are really none of your business! It’s probably boring like shit too.
So if you are in pain right now; know that this is something we all go through irregardless of race, gender, age or whether you are rich or poor. And know also that you can go kayaking and talk about this with yours truly if you really want to. Sometimes a splash or a whack with a paddle maybe all that we need. And I’m usually brutally honest too and don’t like to mince words! But don’t take my word for it as what do I know about the truths of life anyway? Damned if I know. But just hang in there ok? Life can and will get sweeter again … eventually!
Just hang in there - afterall the weekend is here!
Be well!

OMG… the picture look soooo cool
aprilcherrie - yeah that’s a really cool shot! a really accidentally lucky cool shot as its kinda tricky trying to maneuver the kayak around while taking a shot in the moving waters!
i was so surprised and happy when i looked at it subsequently!
Very cool shot, reminds me of views of life after LSD
hehehehehe
Anyway, life has its ups and downs, the circle of life, we just have to grin and bear with it and know that in all things, we just have to accept what comes our way and struggle through with it.
I like your writing in this post… at least, it makes me realized that I’m not alone…

nicely written. just the kind of pep-talk i need today. thanks
I agree…very well said.
Still, that picture looks like it’s spinning to me. Is that a sign of mental instability?
Was this William, our Tarzan, on the Chempedak Kayaking Trip or has another Tarzan 3 has stepped forward?

You are right. There is a lot of up and down in life, but we can’t just keep worrying about them. We all just have to face it. The winners in the end are those who face all the problem honestly and learn from it. The loosers are those keep blaming others for their problems.
