Half-mast.

I lost a bet today. A gamble I believed I could win, chips stacked in my favour, a mere transaction was how I saw the situation. But as it turns out, I over estimated my bluffing capabilities.

Being on the wrong side of victory provides a vista populated with deceased dreams and the rotting stench of over-ambition, while your pride flies at half-mast.

At least I can find consolation in... no, I won't finish that mediocre sentiment.

Three things I learnt this week.

1) Be knowledgeable of the things to which you attach your self-esteem and self-worth.

2) In every situation, one must ask "am I an asset or a liability." Doing this over an extended period of time, will reveal traits of your character that you would normally gloss over. Ruminate on your findings.

3) Participating in a chorus of 'The Wheels on The Bus', with a group of three year olds, a group who are nothing more than several pounds of impulses and SMA formula, is a humbling and energising experience.

Reading.

I've been engrossed in literature of late. Two novels, alike in dystopian value.




Kingdom Come is well-written and it's dramatisation of consumerism is astute. The Stepford Wives is entrancing and paints a chilling view of suburban life and it's perceived idyllic existence.
