Hello again

Once again, it's been a while.

I always seem to find myself back here. Some stints between visits are longer than others. The reasons for the return trip differ, but the destination is always the same.

We are creatures of habit after all. We enjoy the routine of things. The status quo. The promise of repetition. When the tides turn and greet us with anything other than the rhythm of waves of which we have come to know, we drown.

We may put up a fight, kick and splash or just hold on and try to weather the storm, but without retreat, we fall victim. Relentless swells will beat you back; undoing all efforts and attempts to make it to dry land. In panic, even the slightest movement against you feels like a Serens wrath, beckoning you under.

Exhaustion sets in and you just let go.

Another victim of life's stormy seas.
