That glimmer of hope...

Feb 10, 2005 17:18

is struggling to hold on today. It's like that backyard campfire that you rake apart, kick dirt on, and drench with water just to make sure it doesn't come back after you're gone.

Problem: this little ember is the last glimmer of hope that I need to keep going and it's not me that keeps stomping on it. Enemies? yes, and friends too. The Devil? Undoubtedly. God? Well, He's allowing it, so it must be for a purpose.

Solution: ???
A. I could just keep coolhandluke on repeat and lock myself in a dark room for the rest of my life, except that I don't have drapes in my room and there's no lock on the door. The bathroom would work (and also solve that little problem of waste disposal), but there's no refrigerator in there and I don't like sleeping in the shower.
B. I could run.
C. I could hide.
D. I could run and hide.
E. I could pray harder and just keep fanning this little pathetic flame. You never know but there could be fresh kindling right around the corner and we could light up this whole neighborhood.
Yeah.
That'd be nice.
