Keep on Keeping on with ADHD

March 16th, 2009 · 2 Comments · 01 My Thoughts

Keep on, Keeping on.

 

Sometimes that’s all we can do. Sometimes we do something tragic, something which is so disappointing that it hurts so much, the pain is excruciating, it resonates through our entire being and we just can’t help but ask ourselves… why? Why does it have to be that way… why does it have to be so hard… did I do something to curse my life, my existence… does my God hate me?
 
Ever feel that way? Ever curse the ground you walk on and just want to give up, lay down and say ‘no more!’? It’s so easy. It’s so natural. It’s so much a part of the condition we call ADHD that it isn’t something we want to describe or contemplate, it just is and too often we can’t seem to do anything about it.
 
I wish I didn’t, I wish I was… I wish… I wish… I wish… I wish… We can wish as much as we want, and the sunrises the next day, we hope for the best, it’s just another test, will the challenges overwhelm us?
 
Just keep on keeping on. The sun will rise, keep on keeping on.
 
So easy to say, so easy to repeat the words, they play back and we continue forth without choice or will, and keep on we do, we must, we can, we have to. Keep on, keeping on.
