Take your anger off the shelf

Sometimes I get the feeling everything I do is just to make me forget other things.
This house is so cold and empty.
I'm so anxious all the time.
It rained all day today. It bucketed down all over the animals. The donkey was completely drenched and miserable.
Heatherbell, Catnip, Angel and Primrose mooed plaintively under their shabby wooden shelters.
When I got home from work my limbs were stiff and my hair soaking.
I climbed into bed and ate honeydew melon.
I don't know who to turn to sometimes.
I think myself to sleep at night.
There's nothing in my life that I feel completely sure about.
I'm not even nineteen.
My dreams are so vivid they terrify me.

of the day....and the
evils bear patiently;
for this day only is ours:
we are dead to yesterday
and not born to tomorrow."

I have a book called "Grin and Ferret", basicly a collection of ferret pictures accompanied by mottos for living life to its fullest.
So I leave you with this profound piece of advice from its pages:

"When all else fails.
Put on a cute hat."

Grin and bear it - at least you have animals to talk to. I have no one.
