I'm back working in the electrical field. It's going to take me a bit to get back into the swing of things working. I have to get up super early and drive 62 miles to the job site, work all day, then drive home. The above picture was taken on the drive home my first day on the job this week. Those are the mountains of West Virginia, and you drive through them on the interstate.

My body is worn out, I'm tired, and depression is over my shoulder trying to get me in a choke hold. My brain keeps whispering that the only meaning mankind (in the USA) has found in life is to work, pay bills, and elect politicians who want us to just work, pay bills, and worship the rich. That alone, is depressing....and how could you not feel like a peasant?
I have to work on my disgust with the rich man who "always needs more money and is always bitter at the poor man." It's not good to carry those feelings. It's not good for the body or mind. It's just been a casual bad habit of mine for several years. Haha. The good thing is, nature is always there to say, "Hey!! snap out of it, man!! Enjoy life beyond the cultural programming!! Enjoy the real!! Look around and get a sense of the impersonal silent life-force in everything and everyone, animating everything in this miracle of existence.........or something!!" :D
I just thought I'd share a quick update from my week. Life is NOT "just so," but it is interesting.....so look for the "interesting" around you. It helps me anyway.
