My Fave Life Metaphor (Deep hole in the sidewalk)

1.) I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk
I fall in.
I am lost…
I am hopeless.
It isn’t my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.
2.) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don’t see it.
I fall in again.
I can’t believe I’m in the same place.
But it isn’t my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.
3.) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in…it’s a habit
My eyes are open; I know where I am;
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.
4.) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.
5.) I walk down another street.

Thank you to the people who are supporting me to save the website. I'm still without proper internet as apparently there was an equipment failure at the ISP-level that they are waiting for a replacement part for. Best way to reach me (but my internet is as slow as an old dialup modem right now): (email | telegram | SMS +61408036323 | gettr )
