here's something

that I've learned
over the last couple of weeks
(stay tuned for a metaphor
looking for a place to happen LoL)

but srsly....
I've made my world too small.

yup,
you heard me...

I did it
and I accept
full responsibility for it

sometimes I simply
can't see the forest
for the trees....

I've put all my eggs in one basket
and therefore
it shouldn't have surprised me
that
when that basket fell
every single egg broke.

I'm moving on...

life is too short to allow hurt
deception and ignorance,
lack of fairness, and assumptions
to be my nexus

I've got
places to go
and
things to do

I'll see those I want to
and ignore the rest

so much so
that the time for feeling
uncomfortable or sad
about burnt bridges
is well past
I'm actually truly surprised
at how past it has become...

As long as I do
once simple thing
I'll be fine....

I just need to
keep in my mind
who burnt the bridges
in the first place

it wasn't me....
and
if it worries others
they only have
themselves to blame

nothing will change that.

I also need
to continue to
believe in the principles of
~Karma~

in that
what you put out
will come back upon you
three fold....

so...
in the immortal words
of the blister:
"and....have.a.nice.day."
