First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to [livejournal.com profile] ancabell!!! It's probably belated by now, and you won't see this post anyway... but I do miss you, and fervently hope you are all right. *crosses fingers*

Rather unsurprisingly, for a number of reasons, I am kinda down today. It's been raining most of the time, and it looks like the summer is definitely over... and the atmosphere at work is just weird - or maybe I'm paranoid again. I just feel like I don't belong there anymore, even if people are nice to me... I keep expecting tension/criticism any moment, and it's like that "self-fulfilling prophecy" from the personality quiz I did during the weekend. *sigh* And on top of it all, I do realize what day it is, and can't help thinking of all the useless, unnecessary aggression that seems to escalate all around the world...

So, here's a very fitting quote from my favorite songwriter (English version, of course, and the translation seems to need some work, but my rudimentary German is far too weak to try and correct it in keeping with the original, so I'll leave it as it is):



Repulsion covers the world
Hate that flows through the hearts
Disease that goes along the line
Human beings' noble lines
In which uniform stands by uniform
In between there's a crack
That divides the races like sexes
Oh, repulsion that unveils itself to the world
Nobody has seen it
Nobody has listened to it
Nobody'll talk about it
And nobody will ask about it
The street smells of blood
But nothing happened
These hands folded to pray
These hands ready to kill
These hands that pray for peace
These hands will chain them
This mouth begs for mercy
This mouth that speaks about guilt
This man breaks down and dies
This man will live
These eyes have seen it
However, these eyes will shut
Nothing stops the blood from flowing
And the silence grows louder and louder

Right, ok, I see that the doomsday is not over yet, is it??

So, baby, what's up? I know you feel you don't belong to your office anymore, but then isn't that a good thing? You don't 'cos you belong to yourself and the things you like, rather than to them :) I know it's not easy to change (again!), but hey 'things can only get better' :D

*now you're authorised to give me kick in the... backside, lol*

(((keep strong)))
xxxS.

You seem to be my main life support over the last few days... LOL. *big tight hugs* <333
