A pretty devastating turn of events
This was not meant to be today's post. Last night, I decided to draft the write-up which was supposed to be on this screen right now. And I did. Only to find out later, that somehow half of my writing was deleted of its own accord. Yes. As if by some dark magic! Talk about a frustrating turn of events!
Let me fill you in on what exactly happened. Last evening I was feeling particularly contemplative and as a result quite fuzzy. Therefore I decided that the only way I could clear and align my thoughts properly was by writing about it. And so I did. I poured my heart out onto this virtual piece of paper. After doing it, I felt better. I was happy that I could at least make something of last day's meaningless evening. Who knew then, what an utterly unwelcome surprise was lurking in the corner for me?
So there you have it. The moment I realised what has just happened and was sure there was nothing I could do to undo this horrific disaster; I wanted to bang my head on the desk. My entire evening of contemplation and work had gone down the drain! I called a friend up, and after I had shouted out my frustration; I slammed the receiver down. I was feeling so mad that I did not even want to write a new post for today! I did not write it.
My commitment did.
The day I started this blog I had made a commitment to myself and to all the people who read it, that I'd try my best to put up two posts every week. And so long I have stayed true to it (not with a lot of effort to be honest).
I absolutely adore the idea of having a shared journal!!!
Until today, when a really exasperating misfortune triggered me to stop this entire deal altogether; but something somewhere within me decided against it.
And as I pour out my anger here right now (involuntarily) I'm ever so thankful for that noble something that decided to take control of the situation and lulled the angry baby within me to sleep. Thanks for saving the day! Phew! 😅
