Glass Bottles

It's funny the way some things work out. Or the way they never could, never would, and never want to.

It's funny the relief we get when we finish something, a book report, a shower, a meal. Completion, a feeling so desired and yet so fleeting, seemingly impossible to really achieve. We come so close before it evades our grasp, done with one project we look up to see the stack that has piled up in the meantime.

Stop.

Ignore the seething pile of dirty dishes, half-pages, and damsels in distress.

Re-coop.

Breath.

Close your eyes and be at peace.

And you're closer already than you could have been working away busily for hours on end.
