Sorry I spoke too soon - it would seem that 2010 is bent on blazing the destructive trail that 2009 left behind.

I can’t decide if it’s hatred or sadness.

At the torching of the churches and the “religious”-based (is it really an issue of faith, or just plain politics?) mayhem that decorates news titles, blog posts, and tweets like dirty confetti.

At the fact that in a matter of days that had gone by, I hear of one friend’s mom’s ongoing battle with cancer, another friend whose dad passed away suddenly, and finally a colleague who had her mom hospitalized for reasons yet unknown. These are all good people, but of course life never fails to remind us that bad stuff can happen even to the most golden-hearted kind..

On a smaller scale, I have been plagued by disturbing and difficult dreams for the past two nights. I wake up not daring to shut my eyes back. No wonder I’ve been evading my sleeping time lately. Slumber offers no escape anyways, so what’s the point?

Happy Monday anyone?
