i’m trying to see my way out of this hole. i’ve seen glimmers of hope, rays of light and i’ve smiled and felt so warmly optimistic, only to learn it was all nothing but fool’s gold.
maybe i am a fool for believing that if i am a good person that i will have a good life; that if i love, i will be loved in return; that if i work hard then i will get to play hard; and that if i do the right thing especially when it’s not the easy thing, good karma will abound. perhaps those beliefs are riddled with naivete and i deserve my pile of fool’s gold.
