Take Comfort-Bread

Creature of Comfort, I unwrap from a morning chill, take a look around my comfortable house, flick on the fire and grab a blanket and oversized chenille pillow.

The sky carries clouds today. I look back at last night and my evening with friends, trying to decipher what teenagers are really all about. We never came to a conclusion.

Tonight will come all too quickly, as I anticipate no plans but to relax on the couch with a good movie. That is really what I yearned for early today as well. Curled up in front of a television set. Mindless stories causing too little to think deeply about.

I step into the garage a bit earlier, with cigarette in hand. I glance around at H and his tinkering, wondering really what is it that I do not see. Should I keep trying here? How many more times is it worth? What about the old and elderly that celebrate 3o years of togetherness and beyond? What keeps them going or is it fear? Life is good at times, but there will always be more bumps in this road. Do people become complacent, or is there just an unknown world out there that they are afraid of?

Do I analyze things too much? Yes, a bit.
Need to take COMFORT
or is that Southern Comfort!?

"Take comfort where you find it
whatever gets you through
Take comfort don't be blind to it
You must do what's a right for you

Every one at times must run for cover
Don't you know you really can't be blamed
For in this you're just like any other
There's no need, no need to feel ashamed

Take comfort where you see it
Whatever makes it right
Take comfort when you need it
To help you through the night

By the way we live in our confusion
And the way that we misspend our youth
By the time we're stripped of our illusions
We may find illusions are the truth"
