The FORTRESS of SOLITUDE

"So morbid...a sentimental replica of a planet long since vanished..."
~ General Zod

 

A thought...

This is something I wrote a while ago and subsequently deleted. I've been feeling uncharacteristically good in the last few days and wanted to put it back up. Partially because it's 100% true and partially because I want it out there in the universe...

Life really does give you exactly what you're looking for when you stop looking. As cliche as that sounds (and undeniably IS)...it's so true. And when you think you've got things figured out, it has ways to remind you that you aren't in control; you have to decide whether or not to get into the car, but you're not getting in the driver's seat. It is also a great comfort that after years of shitty road trips with scenery that only seems appealing on the surface, the driver will eventually (god willing) drop you off somewhere truly unexpected and wholly satisfying beyond any measure you imagined possible.

Have a good one.
