the monster of nasty thoughts


Sleep deprivation, cranky kid, stressed out husband and an almost zero bank account. Just the perfect mix for a tear fest. Had one of those rare days when everything just caught up and I got caught right in it. Financial bankruptcy loomed large as I envisaged sinking into a quagmire of bills. Desperation just found its biggest victim.
                                                                                                   Actually as I type, it seems silly to have magnified all problems to the extent that I imagined it. OK granted that the situation is not that cheerful and there have been better times. But all said and done, it’s not as bad as I imagined it. You see, these nasty thoughts just have a way of getting larger and larger as you think about it and you just can’t seem to stop. It gets bigger and bigger as you quiver and tremble in front of that gigantic monster until one good cry sends the monster flailing down the tear-floods. And sometimes, that’s all that is needed. A big flood to wash that scary monster into nothingness.
