changes in attitude

Changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes,
nothing remains quite the same,
with all of our running and all of our cunning,
if we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane

That's the chorus of one of Jimmy Buffet's songs. As I sit here in my bed, pondering this line, I can't help but wonder what's next for me? I started this blog without a direction, and kept the personal stuff on the minimal side. But what good is it if I can't use it for some of the personal stuff as well? I was asked tonight about some of the things going on, and its like there's all these thoughts in my head, and no one to tell them to, no where to go with them.

Is life too complex to break it down into bits and pieces, to put logic to things that seem to have no logic? I like to think I'm more logical than the next gal. Or maybe that I'm not as emotional as the gal next to me. Or maybe its more that I hide the emotional, not letting it rule my life, letting it make my decisions. Or at least, influence my decisions.

So. what does a gal do when there's a dilemma, and its complicated? Pick it apart and try for some logic? Who's logic, which logic, the world's logic? Again, more complications. But I'm definitely at some kind of crossroads, and trying to find my way, muddle through this thing called 'my life'.

What's the bottom line? I guess that would be wondering where to draw the line. Or for that matter, wondering where the line is. *sigh* Talk about a mixed up, tangled up mess in my head. Today's question: Is the suggestion of watching old movies a distraction?
