Rhymer’s Reasons

by Rhymer Reisen

Rated: E · Book · LGBTQ+ · #2242935

It’s basically my brain vomiting through my fingertips. Bring a poncho. Splash zone…

I’m the kind of guy we all look at and unintentionally describe as “Oh, bless his heart”…

Sweet! Everything looks perfect to me!

I've got a great picture of Mitzi and what she's like in my head, and we've got a pretty good idea of Tyler's personality already. Grayson is still a mystery! I'm looking forward to reading more!

Very...

Spell-check and Grammar-check are worthless when writing in Oklahoman. Glad I lived there.

I don't need a translation.

I sure'nuff don't miss the drugs and alcohol of people with empty lives going nowhere.

Welcome to every single moment of my life... LOL. I made it as a quarterfinalist last month in a ScreenCraft competition. Before the announcement I'd completely forgotten about it. Then I found out I was in the top 173 out of 700! You'd THINK that would give me a confidence boost. Oh no, just the opposite. And now, here I am, 24 hours before the next announcement, quite LITERALLY nauseated because of the anxiety of not knowing/wanting to be picked/not wanting to be picked. Half scared out of my mind no matter what happens. It's so completely ridiculous I've been laughing at myself all week but I just can't stop. So I am working to distract myself. Not working. But yeah, I totally get this post.

I'm happy to read you've gotten to this point. I share much of your plight - looking Death in the face, learning to love myself, learning not to take the world or myself so seriously. We can do this! You've got this!

We do all go through peaks and valleys as we try to find out who we are. Never be too serious about life. If you do, you'll never enjoy the small things. Rock who you are because there's no one else like you out there. But that being said, you are never alone. You'll find friends in the darnedest places. Enjoy your life, it's too short to waste it being angry.

This looks like a pretty comprehensive work outline to me, and I see a lot of ways to apply these ideas. Some of them struck a chord, or made me say, "Yup!" to myself.
5) If we both had the appropriate clearances and a secure facility, I could tell you stories of when this wasn't practiced.
7) Good luck, indeed.
10) Absolutely "Thank you, WDC!"
12) As long as I have internet access, I'll probably cheat, but I probably ought to have a copy.
13A and 13F) LOL
13E) Yup.

Thanks for putting this out there for us.

We all have struggles like that from time to time. We all have to find ourselves and go through individualization. We have to figure out who we are and what we stand for. I spent a lot of my life kind of drifting from one circumstance to another. I am 44 and feel like I am just now truly starting to live and find myself. I love writing. I am able to share my discoveries and experiences with others.

I like your take on story telling. Everyone is living one and struggling to understand it. Writing may well be a form of therapy, but it's definitely a means of communication.

I also like humans much less now than I did in my twenties. This pandemic has increased my anti-socialness too. The less I go around people, the less I want to go around them.

30- Day Prompt: Day Three

"30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" by Fivesixer prompt:

What is the Hardest Part of Your Job? Tell us how you deal with it.

I’m pretty lucky as far as jobs go…my tribe and I own a business, and it’s pretty easy. The most difficult part is dealing with human beings. When they come into our store, it’s as if they leave logic outside in their purse in the car. I only work one or two days a week, and I have issues when remembering faces. They become frustrated when I don’t instantly recognize them, their name, their lineage…but they’re silent when I ask them what my name is. Or when we’re wearing a mask as they walk in because we believe in science, and they ask if they need to put a mask on. Why do they look to me for moral guidance in that instance? If you’re not gonna care enough about anyone to wear a mask, why would you ask just because I have one on? We’re almost two years into a pandemic…I refuse to believe anyone “forgets” their mask at this point.

Maybe being forty years old has ruined some of my perspective to the point changes need to be made within myself. I don’t have the same love for humanity I grasped when I was in my twenties, the belief that peace and love would save the world. I just don’t have much faith anymore, and it makes me sad. I’m sure that’ll change again, I’m certain I’ll find magiv in the world amongst the humans. But for now, the hardest part of my life also happens to be the hardest part of my job: humans.
