I was finishing the last few sentences of the Ratatoskr myth and it donned on me how metaphoric it is to current situations. Careful who you find “annoying” and “insignificant” some people may seem to be for the little tasks they complete may seem little, but in their totality those tasks add up, and over time may be the stitches that hold the fabric together and cause it to come undone.

As I socialize with friends over the last few weeks I had to look up something I posted to facecrack July 1 2017. I have to wonder where the overall harmony is these days.

Common Definition: something wide spread or shared.

Unity Definition: to come or bring together for a common purpose or action. the quality or state of being made one, a condition of harmony

Community compound word Common with Unity

Community Definition: A group of people who come together for a common purpose and having a shared harmonious vision.

I am somewhat saddened by all the things happening. But in some ways saw it coming. The lack of planning. the lack of follow through on conversations that seem to be long ago and forgotten. I recall having this conversation with former bosses, and friends of former bosses as well as recently deceased, and the not so distantly deceased.

No one plans to die, all though there are those that do wake up today and say “Today I die” but that is the exception. In either event the outcome is still the same, you have died. Death is not hard on the deceased it is hard on the living. Those the dead leave behind. It is harder still on the living when no thought has been given upon what happens after your death. The now parentless child, lover, mother or father, wife or husband and or business partner are left to deal with what you did not deal with.

If your living and I hope that you are if your reading this lol. Give some thought on the details of what happens on the big “if I die today”

Om bhur bhuvaha svaha
Tat savitur varenyam
Bhargo devasya dhimahi
Dhiyo yonah prachodayat

Best version is by Dave Premal

I went somewhere today where I once I felt at home, I left after about 10 minutes wondering why I went to begin with. I felt lost and just wanted to scream at folx. Instead I left I just screamed inside, and the memories died just a little more. Then I heard this song. This goes out to the souls who scream inside, scream for love that never quite seems to be returned. Who give up and stop. Stop giving your all even stop giving the some. Who scream inside begging for something that never seems to be there. Who scream inside wanting to fill a hole that never seems to be filled.

Depression:

Is like when a tree falls in the forest and there is no one there to hear the sound of it hitting the ground, or the snapping of the branches as it falls.

Stiffling a scream because you feel there is no one there to listen so what is the point.

to Paraphrase a song by Missing Persons, the song title is “Words”

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care
My lips are moving and the sound’s coming out
The words are audible but I have my doubts
That you realize what has been said
You look at me as if you’re in a daze
It’s like the feeling at the end of the page
When you realize you don’t know what you just read
What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it’s no use talkin at all
I might as well go up and talk to a wall
’cause all the words are having no effect at all
It’s a funny thing am I all alone
Something has to happen to change the direction
What little filters through is giving you the wrong impression
It’s a sorry state I say to myself
What are words for when no one listens anymore
Do you hear me
Do you care
Let me get by
Over your dead body
Hope to see you soon
When will I know
Doors three feet wide with no locks open
Walking always backwards in the faces of strangers
Time could be my friend
But it’s less than nowhere now
Less than nowhere now
Less than nowhere now
Now
Pursue it further and another thing you’ll find
Not only are they deaf and dumb they could be going blind and no one notices
I think I’ll dye my hair blue
Media overload bombarding you with action
It’s getting near impossible to cause distraction
Someone answer me before I pull out the plug
What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it’s no use talkin at all
Do you hear me
Do you care
