… Wow! What an absolutely beautiful day it’s been! I sailed right through what I suppose could have been an “8.8” tailspin like the risen QUEEN I truly am! Meanwhile, here’s how many graves I will need to bury everything that has EVER died inside of me:

ZERO!

Why is that, you ask? Because everything that has died inside of me over the years has actually given birth to the who, what, and where I am today. Good, bad, or ugly, or indifferent, the cycles of “life and death” in my journey have been nothing short of extraordinary! This is really saying something for a “Nothing. Everything. ALL OF IT!” extraordinarily ordinary MIRACLE of an existence like mine. But I’ve digressed …

As for all of the people, places, and things that have fallen to their demise around me? Not my circus! Not my monkeys! Not my responsibility! Yes, that’s harsh … I KNOW! But you see, at the end of this all, it is my very strong suspicion that I’ll be sitting down with “The Powers That Be” to rehash and account for my life, no one else’s, and therefore I shall not invest or insinuate myself into too many “people, places, and things” that are out of my control.

I once read somewhere that I don’t need to fix or concern myself with every broken, dying, or dead thing that crosses my path, because some things either prefer to stay broken or just NEED to fall to their death. So? I will continue to choose my battles wisely with nothing but love and care in my heart for the things that truly matter, and the wisdom to know when to let go of things that aren’t sustainable.

Bye everyone, it’s me, CAT, and yes, I’m STILL alright! Dare I say I’m better than alright! Everything that’s ever tried to kill me really has only made me stronger! THANKS FOR ASKING!
