Tired...

Exhausted. Physically. Emotionally. And in Spirit. At one point this afternoon, a woman with such a pure heart made me cry. The rawness of her gratitude, her sincerity and simplicity struck me to my very core. Before I knew it, tears have spilled from my eyes before I could control it. Then, only to have all of that dashed down because of one insincere, inept individual.

I don't have to apologize for trying to do a good job. If it affects one so much, that's not my problem any more. Life, as we know it, is breaking down right before our very eyes. It is now the moment for reckoning. Can't we just let go of all our selfishness, defensiveness and try to live authentically? We don't know when and how everything will be taken away from us. Can we just forget about self-preservation and think of others as well? I try to understand a lot of things, or persons' motives or what drive them to do things that are hurtful and uncalled for. But then again, that understanding does not necessarily have to mean I would just sit down and let them tear down my spirit... Please, just take your drama somewhere else.
