In an instance, I was overwhelmed and the good chi, karma, whatever the f’ing you want to call it, amassed through out the week dissipated.
The emo status, fortunately, did not reach critical mass. The lack of an official title stemmed the sting and preempted the emotional onslaught that usually accompanies disap- I think I’ll go with discontent (?).
Okay, dated a few years back, I have chronically agonized over the appropriate consideration (?) of the good and bad things afflicted on me by others. I still insist if something good happened, something bad would simply establish equilibrium (?), but that is seldom true.
i.e. kid walks into a candy store. Kid steals a piece of candy. Returns next day, return candy… is everything okay?
Okay, granted, because the culprit is a kid, the entire thing will likely blow over.
But magnify it a bit, what if it was a man? Unlike the kid, he will likely not be extended the courtesy of ignorance, inexperience, nor, ultimately, a pardon.
… but what he took, he restored…
… but he did not restore… he just returned it.
… after the return, I bet, the shopkeeper’s comfort is more or less displaced.
I don’t want things to be like that.
If someone made me happy then turn around and made me sad, I’ll be balanced once more.
I much rather have it this way.
But neither wishful thinking, nor kind words, or the restoration of what once was shall change what will be.
I have to keep that in mind.
But for what it’s worth…
I have revved in your smile and that infectious curvature of yours has grown on my own.
I made my decision. I’m going to stick to it.
