What Can It Mean?

As I logged on to my computer this evening, I couldn’t help but read the celebrity gossip on the AOL homepage. But then, I began to get angry at the tabloid press. Around me, I bid a final adieu to the foreigners I love so dearly, an old man down the street passes away, and with the rise in cost of nearly everything, people are starting to sink. Surely the fact that Carrie Underwood doesn’t need a boyfriend, is purely coincidental. At time like these, I wonder if everything that we do is just an illusion. Life as we know it may just be a cheap theatrical trick, and the curtain could drop on us any minute. It could very possibly be too dangerous and chancy to creep near the edge of the stage. If you plowed right over the edge, it would be a moderate embarrassment to yourself and those around you. But then I have to think about what chancy things I have done that have lead to a standing ovation. Maybe those count for something. Maybe they don’t. I guess that either way, everything is just a part of the script. I am hoping that no one else gets written out for awhile because it is extremely hard to say goodbye and even harder to move on with an empty space on the stage. As things move closer into perspective, I think I notice how vaguely superficial it really is. It is saddening to say, but I think it may be easier to cope with it being that way because exploring the unknown is too hard to imagine. So congratulations Carrie Underwood, good luck Laura and Marcello, things will work out for you struggling families, and Bill, this is your final curtain call. Thank you dearly for sticking with me through this dramatic monologue (Wow, I actually learned something from Mr. Rowe.). And please refrain from smoking and flash photography during the production as these actions may result in an unpleasant interruption to my life. Haha. That is quite awkward to think about from this perspective. Anyway, I hope that I am close to an intermission. I am well overdue for one. Give me 15, and I’ll be ready to give it all I got once again.
