We Should Have Seen it Coming
It is inescapable in this place--it fills your nostrils. You could drown in it. It is so thick, you could almost see its poofy green cloud. If you have the courage to stand it, even for a few seconds, you'd see that it rests on every part: every piece of furniture, every painting, every word that graces the air.
Death. It is imminent. It is cleansing. It is feverantly, passively taking over. It is the lull of activity, it is the ceasure of creativity.
It is promised to us, and it is delivered. What should we expect? Obedience and commitment failed is only the symptom. We should have seen it coming.

We are all going to die. I think that it's a good thing to confront and eventually embrace. It's not like we can beat it.

I know these feelings, you've expressed in your....poem? I've written something almost identical.
My words of wisdom, take them as you wish.
Take some time for yourself, even if you have to delegate some of your responsibilities to someone, or train someone to do them, even for a short period of time. Spend some time with yourself, with your girl (phone perhaps?), and most importantly with your God. Every vehicle needs fuel. Don't burn out.
I believe in you..and shucks.. I like you too -
hey andrew...don't know if this post is describing how you feel doing what you're doing but just wanted to say that I think you're great and I know that when I see you next, I'll notice a difference for sure (that being for the better). See you soon...
