Need Not Apply

A Poem by Pete
"

The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right. - Thoreau

"
Rushing Out The Door Stock Photos ...

at least liars, thieves, cheaters, addicts, alcoholics, lawyers, politicans, bums and w****s know what they are and who they're for
the rest of us need help figuring it out
as we try to leave the unemployment office
trying to go "out" through an "in" door

"When work is duty, life is slavery. There is no work so rude that man may not exalt it; no work so impassive that he may not breathe a soul into it; no work so dull that he may not enliven it." - Thoreau

Doors will always open and close for us. It is helpful if we use the entrances and exits as they were intended. Sadly it just doesn’t work that way. Life is full of challenges and frustrations. We just have to hope we can get it right some of the time. It’s not that long ago I walked into the male toilets, and yes it was a mistake. I made a very hurried exit:)

Going out through the in door is a good way to describe us floundering trying to figure out what to do next. At least they were trying to go out the END door lol

We can't always get it right.
One day though (hopefully) the right door will open for us. :)
