Just A Box 3/16/2008 11:40:59 AM
Have I found the cure? For the past three years my life has been topsy-turvy. My country home burned and I have moved three times and am anticipating a fourth move. Not that I had too, it was by choice as I cannot seem to find the spot I want to be in. But it has caused me considerable anxiety and stress living out of boxes. So far I have never been able to get all my stuff unpacked from the first move before I pack up and go again. When anyone asked me where something is I say ‘It’s in a box’ that explains my life totally. This past week I have been sick with a cold/flu like illness and running a fever and not able to sleep in my bed at night and am exhausted. Last night I had a dream. I was in a fitful half awake state and my thoughts were, if I could only fit this in a box and put it away. Then it came to me, a box, it could solve all the worlds problems. If everyone had a box and would write down their grievances, hurts, angers, and frustrations, deposit them into a box, put it away and live in peace. If man could give up their greed and lust for power and just write it down, put it in a box and walk away. In a few years they could take out the box and see how foolish their thoughts had been. The wealth and power they seek is short lived as the human life is all too short and more so for those who are hated as they strive for power, for they are targets for an assassin’s bullet and eventually end up in a box anyhow. I am going to try the box theory at home with my family. If you have a problem, put it in a box. I'll let you know how it works.
