Throwback to 5
years ago, March 16, 2012
On May 26 I started feeling down, caught
amidst nostalgia, anxiety and sadness. I should be celebrating yet another
victory, but I am not. I intended to post and let it all out to cleanse my
mind, heart, soul and spirit, but in reality too many demands have kept me from
doing so. Part of it had to do with the “unrealistic” goals I set for Gina
Yoryet, and how I drive myself nuts dealing with that, plus everything else.
Part of it had to do with some things NOT
going the way they were planned earlier in May. A huge part of it had to do
with loss in different areas and dimensions, which I don’t want to deal with at
this time. Another reason is the huge life change lying ahead that robs me from
sleep. And the last straw that broke the camel’s back, had to do with not being
able to stay Semper Fidelis to my game of words and to
the health and fitness aspect lately.
There are also some very profound and
personal issues that are preventing me from seeing the light at the end of the
tunnel at this given time and place. Part of it has to do with the fact that I ALWAYS
make life even more complex!
My hands are tied, but as hard as it may seem, I cannot
run away from this, I have to rise to the occasion. Everything I can think of
is, Semper
Fidelis. Whatever happens, whatever my purpose is, I must remain Semper
Fidelis. Always, NOT sometimes, NOT usually, but ALWAYS. When the rain subsides, I will be victorious once again, and I shall meet Victoria Esperanza…
Another time, another place.
I have a lot of work to do before the night fades, but
I don’t want to deal with all of that now. I want to be true to myself at least
tonight, Semper Fidelis to my writing game.
“It is NOT negotiable, NOT is it relative, but ABSOLUTE.” Semper Fidelis,” is more than a fancy slogan. It is truly a way of
life. “ALWAYS faithful.” IT ISN’T,
“SOMETIMES Faithful.” NOR is it “USUALLY faithful.
