In the dark...

It's dark and I can't see my way
I'm stumbling around
Disoriented
Groping for a familiar marker
Everything I know is in question
Nothing is certain anymore

It's dark and I'm falling
Arms flailing about
Lord will you rescue me
Will your arms bear me up?
When I can't see you
Lord do you still see me?

It's dark and I'm crying
Life is leaving me behind
My faith is failing in this valley
Lord have mercy on me!
Be my eyes when I cannot see
Give me something to hold on to
In the dark...

If you're still sittin' down, you're on a loooong ting!!!!!!!!

Ok, I dont quite know what that title has got to do with this post but the thing just cracks me up everytime I hear it so I decided to use it by force! Plus i'm tired of making excuses for my seeming inability to blog on a regular basis so I thought I would distract yall with D'banj-inspired irrelevancies. How does D'banj come up with all these inanities anyway? Kokomaster, kokolettes, no long ting, tongolo! He clearly has a lot of time on his hands. LOL!!!!!

Ok, ok, I see that you all are not the type to be easily distracted. So why havent I blogged in almost a month? Well, as with most things the answer is complicated but the main reason is that we've had serious IT issues at my office lately so I havent been able to get online as regularly as before. And apparently I am not one of those people who can compose a post offline - trust me, I have tried but it appears that my creative juices are conditioned to flow only when I am seated in front of a computer screen that is connected to the internet. Go figure! So bottom line is this: you guys should join me in praying that I get a laptop soon, and one that is hooked up to a reliable internet service provider so that you will never again be deprived of my sunny wit and inspiring rhetoric ;-)

Moving right along...... So what's been happening in my life of late? Not much, I'm afraid. The monotony of my life is really beginning to bother me, actually. It's the same ol' same ol' day in and day out. There's got to be more to life than this. I feel like I'm in limbo, in a holding pattern waiting for something to happen. Perhaps, in the words of one of my sister's friends, "I've got to be more proactive, dammit!" Stop waiting for something to happen and instead make things happen for myself. Sounds like a nice idea, except that I have no clue how to go about that. I'm open to suggestions though - anyone have any ideas on how to generate some (positive) excitement in my life?
