Reality

Today I went into my kitchen and heard a weird buzzing noise. It sounded like either a bee or a fly was trying to get out of the house, but had become stuck between the window and blinds. I went over and sure enough it was a bee that kept flying at the window trying to get out. It would fly and fly and fly but wouldn't go anywhere, then it would get tired and it would rest on the window frame. After a while it would start flying again. My mom opened the blind and do you know what the bee did? It just kept flying at the window. This made me start thinking about life...weird how a bee can do that.

Why do I keep hitting my head against the window? People around me even open the blinds sometimes trying to help me get to where I want to go, but it is hard to trust that they are leading me to the right place. There have been many times where I find myself stuck behind a window. I know where I want to end up and I can see it right in front of my face, but there is some barrier blocking me from attaining what I want. So just like the bee I need to realize that people are trying to help me get to what I want and if I don't accept their help I will end up dead on the window sill.

hahah...dying on a window sill would suck.

don't do it. but the other day i was dust mopping the floor at work, and a bee flew out at me from under the fabric shelf. I wouldn't have minded watching him die on a windowsill.
