lost your balance on a tight rope, it's never too late to get it back

i remember exactly exactly when things started falling apart.

i remember exactly which decisions were the wrong decisions.

i remember, but i can't do anything about it. 

i can't go back in time.

all i can do is pick up the pieces and continue moving forward, despite the set back.


this reminds me of the line in the tim burton' movie "big fish"-- they say when you meet the love of your life, time stops, and that's true. what they don't tell you is that when it starts again, it moves extra fast to catch up.


i don't know anything about love but i think the same rules apply to tragedy.  only in some cases, things fuck you up so bad that when time starts speeding again- you spend the rest of your life just trying to catch up......


sometimes i think that it's possible you'll get there and sometimes i don't.


what can i say?  i don't claim to have any answers. 


that's why i'm writing i guess.  not just today but every day. maybe someday it will all make sense.


not just for me-- but for you too.
