Slow Days·the think normal

Trying to define normalstory once again..

normalstory

normalstory, nothing grand, 
began with my own trivial stories, 
and from now on too
it will be filled with stories of ordinary people.

This place, with no clear rules or character.. at times- 
may be self-praise, and at other times may go on and on with disappointment in myself and griping.
In the end, perhaps like ordinary people, I might end up criticizing others to console myself or to justify my own actions.

Even so, I think this:
if these trivial worries I have while living can, even just a little, 
resonate with someone other than myself—
then that one person, somewhere in this world,
might not have to shiver alone with loneliness tonight.

In the end, we may all be worrying over similar things, thinking similar thoughts, 
carrying ordinary selfishness, ordinary desires, and ordinary anger.
It's just that the judgment that I alone am in a different situation pushes ordinary, common things into extremes.

I want to tell them.
You are not alone..
