Welcome to the Merry-Go-Round

"STOP THE WORLD! I want to get off!"

I've felt like this many times and apparently so has someone else judging by the post I found on a site I joined late 2010 (see below).  At any rate, that's where the name of my blog came from; my mental comparison of living in this world to a merry-go-round with seemingly endless ups and downs on a seemingly endless round and around routine day after day, week after week and year after year.

This blog is the equivalent of my online diary (insert Alicia Keys song here) the real me that propriety, "political correctness" and tact dictate I restrain, temper and hide to survive in this world.  If you disagree with something you read here, that's cool but don't attempt to persuade me to conform. This is my free space; the only space I have left.  It's open for all to see but few choose to look, which is also fine by me.  So long as I get to let my hair down somewhere, even if it's only virtually.

You'll find my life, inner thoughts, goals & aspirations (if I can manage to conjure any up through my bouts of utter dejection), my writings (stories, poems, songs & otherwise), info about my career and business (look for links to my sites if you wish to support my business), and other random things that pop into my scattered mind.  Enjoy the ride by witnessing my ride!

"Stop the world - I want to get off!" i feel like screaming this at the top of my lungs sometimes!:-( Anyone else with me on this????
Usually i am predisposed to merriment and mirth but occasionally the harshness of this world drags me down....

Life can seem palpably unfair at times but i suppose thats what we should expect in Satan's world... bring on the New World:-)

I guess happiness isn't about getting what you want but appreciating what you have...
