Too Little and Too Much

Isn’t it a funny thing when life gives you too little and too much, all at the same time? 

I have to say, I love my chosen career field, but whew!  This poverty thing does get rather old, rather quickly.  Might I add, by the way, that it’s incredibly frustrating to almost never fully have the opportunity to focus on the moment?  Whenever you’re in the middle of one study or one gig, you’re always studying, preparing, or searching and auditioning for the next thing to hopefully come along. 

As if that weren’t frustrating enough, I have this incourageable habit of dipping my hands into too many bowls at once.  I love too many things to give any of them up!

In the middle of it all, what do you do when a friendship you once cherished gets ripped away from you because of someone you don’t even know?

In the words of Dory (aka Ellen) from Finding Nemo:

Dory: Hey there, Mr. Grumpy Gills. When life gets you down do you wanna know what you’ve gotta do?

Marlin: No I don’t wanna know.

Dory: [singing] Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim.

Marlin: Dory, no singing.

Dory: [continuing] Ha, ha, ha, ha, ho. I love to swim. When you want to swim you want to swim.

I do love to swim, after all. . .  and sing.  :)
