What Goes Up, Must Come Down
March 26, 2008Lately, things are looking back up for me again. After the incident with me and my appendix a couple of weeks ago, I’m finding myself in this upwards spiral. That’s a good thing, right? Right. Except that with every good thing, comes a bad thing. The only problem is: what will that be?
I am completely clueless on this one. These bad things always hit you in the face when you least expect it. I could have died from my appendicitis (if I was in the middle of nowhere), so what could be worse than that. Actually die and go to heaven? I, for one, am a non-believer, so in the eyes of the Almighty, He would have send me straight downstairs. Or I could die and find out that this whole shindig we call Religion doesn’t exist. That would actually make me feel good about myself, because it means that I was right.
Anywho, if I really would have died, I wonder what it would have said on my tombstone. Probably something like: "Please God, have mercy on his soul. He didn’t know any better". Personally, I’m hoping more for something like: "It could have been a brilliant career".
Ah, to hell with it. By the time I’m ready to meet my maker, just burn me up. But for now, I’m busy hitchhiking on an upwards spiral.
