sticky

just as things were progressing at a nice, steady pace, complications arise.

sure, i expected them at some point in time, just not right now. i wanted to enjoy this unbridled joy a bit longer. but things are the way they are, and i'm actually ok with it. dealing with the issues that arise are just part of the equation, i guess.

what will become of those bumps on the road? will i be successful in navigating past them? that, i do not know. all i know is i'll try. that's all i can do, i reckon. let the chips fall where they may.

it does feel kind of alive to actually care enough to want to jump through hurdles though.
