swimming

when there is never a problem

you might be the problem

when you find nothing but trouble

swimming in circles across an infinite ocean 

 when you keep finding the same things

again and again then maybe indeed...

you might be the enemy

in an ocean full of anything

yet you seem to find only conflict

in a terminal struggle

finding only the enemy

to be the never ending victim?

hmm...

so maybe it's us

in the direction we swim

perhaps it's time to relax

to let go

let the current take us way back

into a less problematic direction

time to make a friend

time to forgive an enemy

always better in my opinion to have friends rather than enemies.

Circles I of thought can be a pain in the backside, especially if they lead back to a bad starting point.

I think straight lines are so much better.

Forgiveness can be golden. Enjoyed the read and my journey.

Head banging music. Did my head in lol

Ha, I'm surprised you put yourself through the music. Tool is pretty heavy on the head banging.

Many times people like to blame others for things not going their way or according to plans but in really they get in their own way or cause the issue

Pathological blame shifting is one of the root causes of chronic depression. If you constantly convince yourself that nothing is really your fault then real self improvement is pretty much impossible I think.
