MARCH 22 2011 0643 - JACKSONVILLE FL: It is a mad, oh so truly mad world that we live in, and the funny thing is, I seem to be one who almost accepts the madness.
So, what happened recently? Well, the United States, France and the UK attacked Libya over the weekend, I believe the first round was fired on Friday March 18th. Tomahawk Cruise Missiles, such a wonderful weapon. Needless to say Gadhafi is not very pleased. That's what he gets for thinking my President is his homeboy. Personally, I would have finished the job in 1986, but that is just me.
Oh, AT&T buys T-Mobile. How is that for serving Verizon a serious wake up call? That one move will position AT&T to be the largest mobile carrier in the United States, although their stocks have not seemed to move much over the past couple of trading days. Still, it is a ballsy move, and AT&T sure proved that they have a pretty big set. Now, does that mean I will go running back to AT&T? Oh, yeah right, like what the heck ever.
Heard there was an earthquake in South Carolina this morning. It was only a magnitude 2.0, but come on, it really does not take a lot to shake South Carolina up. Still, I am curious. There was the earthquake in Washington DC, I believe it was a small like 2.0 magnitude as well, and now the one in South Carolina. Seems like the shake rattle and roll is working its way down the eastern seaboard. Could the next stop be Florida? To borrow a famous phrase from the Hep Cat Days of Harlem, 'One Never Know, Do One?'.
So, here I am this morning, preparing to embark on another adventure with the Blues. You know, I am almost wondering if God is sending me a message of sorts. Let me explain why I am saying this.
You know how it is when it seems no matter what you do, or how hard you try, everyone else is getting ahead, and often on the merits of what you have done? Recently, and I would like to think that I am merely over reacting, but it seems as if regardless of what I do at work, I am walking into that same brick wall. It runs from ceiling to floor and wall to wall, ergo, no way up, no way down, no way end no way around, it is just there. I feel as if my talents are going to waste. Sure, people come to me the solve their issues, and when I do, they take the credit. In short, I have become a corporate prostitute simply being pimped by the system, and between you me and the fence post, the crap really sucks.
I am like an eagle in a canary's cage, not much room to spread my wings. Something has to give eventually, but what.
I gave it a little thought yesterday evening, as I allowed my mind to roam randomly, and I came up with the notion that maybe I need a soul searching mission. Perhaps, I need to just go as the wind blows and seek to find who I really am. I would most likely run out of money within a couple of weeks into this journey, but maybe that is what I need. I am missing something, and I just cannot put my finger on it. Perhaps a vision quest is in order.
Oh well, who knows. My mind just rambles from time to time. Still, just the thought of it, still.
