Circumstances

It's so foolish to be mad at Circumstances.
But Circumstances is so not understanding.
Again, foolishness! Circumstances are not made with understanding or the decerning spirit to jump in at the correct time and place.
A selfish thing!

How can you not be mad at him?
He spoils your plans, he causes disappointments and he rips your belongings
Yet, he is like a child
You are not allowed to be mad at him
It is unacceptable to be mad at him
It is never a reason to get mad
Because it is okay for him to do as he likes

How can you be so selfish then, you ask?
To be mad at something which one has no control of?
To be mad at something which has no basis in the first place to even react?
Yet, the insides of you ache
Aches leading to hurt
Hurt finds it way out of you
And manifest itself as anger.. senseless anger

You do not know what exactly you are mad at?
At Circumstances itself? Perhaps yourself? The others who are caught together by circumstances?
Or perhaps it is self-pity?
Pity pity me..

Where is Perfect then?
or even its subordinate, Good?

Could Circumstances cloud our visions?
Could we fail to see the good?
Are bad more pronounced that we fail to see the many goods, fail to rejoice over them?
Perhaps we take Good for granted.

I'm sorry, Good.
Please come back.
