When "The World Is Too Much With Us"*

Redirect. Focus.












Flee from the now, and in mind or reality, find beauty. Breathe it in. Peace and calm will follow. 


...so I'm told. Frankly, I'm a bit skeptical. 


Perhaps, instead, just scream or have a beer or go for a walk or pet the pets. Find the absurdity. Smile sardonically. Laugh. Have fun. 

And if all that doesn't work, go to bed. Another day might be better.



Repeat as necessary. 


*William Wordsworth
