Life is Strange
Take care of myself day. Made pancakes for my grandbaby and then we walked to his swimming lessons. Walking back home I decided that a good self pampering was in order, you know, treating myself the way we indulge our lovers to let them know how special they are to us. And it's a given that we need to be good lovers to ourselves, first and foremost so... I decided I needed a pedicure and manicure, a new blouse, and to make an appointment with my hair stylist. I stopped by her shop but disappointingly, her first available appointment was next Thursday. "Oh darn, Rose." I said, "You know I always do this last minute and I really want my hair done by my birthday which is this coming Wednesday." She's seeing me today at 3:00! Then I got home and my lovely landlady asked me if I've been losing weight. I told her "No!" Then she said, she doesn't know what it is but I look so sexy and beautiful. Life is so strange.

Whenever anyone says "Life is strange," I want to ask, "Compared to what?"
But it certainly is sometimes chaotic and astounding.
Compared to what I expect I suppose and unsettling but not in a bad way. Human life is strange in that the ego has such power to trap me in the illusion and no matter how many times I realize the truth, over and over again, my consciousness of what is real still gets covered over.
