Empty Promise



So, almost all of my previous posts are generally just reports of how low I feel and why.  Let's see if I can come up with something more positive for this go-round.  Well, maybe at least neutral.

I bought lots of sh*t last month.  Trying to make myself feel better I suppose.  I just feel poorer now.  Some of the stuff has to be configured with other (new) components.  I haven't even opened the boxes.

Dang, and this was supposed to be a positive, or at least neutral post.

OK, well I got promoted from Supervisor to Superintendent.  That was great.  I still have to work 10 - 12 hours per day.  I got a small raise this year.  It just doesn't mean much anymore.  Don't get me wrong, I would rather be promoted than demoted, or laid off.  So I count this as a blessing.  It is just that I am not happy.

I have heard people say that family is everything.  Others place a high value on their friends.  I don't have that.  It is just me now, and I hate that.

On the other hand, why am I crying in my beer?  I don't live in the town recently ravaged by a mile wide tornado.  I don't have a terminal disease (that I know of.)  I have all my limbs and fingers,  Both my eyes work.  I live in one of the richest countries on the face of the planet.  I know who God is; but I have consistently declined to serve him.  The rest just doesn't mean anything.
