Friday On My Mind

Friday on my mind but I’d just as soon forget

I used to have a life but I wonder where it went

Had it in my pocket but it must have fell somewhere

I thought to look around but I found I didn’t care

It wasn’t worth a lot no, it wasn’t worth that much

I thought I knew it well but it seems I’m out of touch

Friday on my mind I really wish you’d go away

Friday on my mind I can’t take another day

ยฉ The Beginning At Last

  1. Hang tough, man.โ€‚You’re Emperor Gorilla after all. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Seriously, find something, anything, to take your mind off it.

  2. I think for me this is the most frustrating part of going through the dark pit. Some days all seems well, you feel confident you’ve conquered the darkness, made it out, learned the lessons, positive about the next moment…then the next day you are down worse than before. The up and down of it, sometimes feels like I’m going crazy.
    Life is hard, I find it easier for me to move with it as I can. If I feel broken, I stay broken…till I feel otherwise.
    Neither trying to get out of it nor surrendering to it helps at all.
    We can only hope that it shall pass, even the temporal breaks are appreciated.
    Good Friday is a holiday here in Ghana, is it the same for you?
    You can stay in and watch silly stuff online, koalas kicking each other out of trees I find so ridiculously funny ๐Ÿคฃ.

    2. I’ve never seen koalas having “this is my tree, get out!” fights but now I absolutely need to.

      1. Yess, it’s so ridiculously funny and apparently a very common happenstance in their lives.

    These remind me of a few images I made last year. Wish you could post images in comments here, lol.

  10. Iโ€™m left speechless by the misery youโ€™ve imbued in these images and through these words, I really wish you a wholesome weekend, soldier! Keep your head held high, lean back and chill out. Maybe take a long refreshing nap. Sending you great positivity. Youโ€™re our hero, stay strong ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’™

  11. Maybe trite, but I recently came across the line, “tough times don’t last, tough people do.” Just know that you’ve survived crap in the past and made it through; doesn’t mean it didn’t suck last time and won’t suck this time, but you’ve won 100% of these down spells.

  13. You have a lot of love and support around you, Kevin. Try to hang on to that. Mourning is part of the process, but then the only one who can pick yourself up and keep moving is for you to do that. Sending a giant hug your way.
