Keep the heart racing

I think I may require a bit more stimulation than is normal.  Or perhaps I am the normal one and the reset of the world is being entirely too passive.  Perhaps it is related to my work.











Work pays the bills and is stimulating on occasion but also quite depressing.  I am a claims manager and an attorney.  I deal in death and destruction.  We might insure the drunk  who mows down a pedestrian.  We might insure a fancy ceramic barrel table that someone decides to place in their shower.  Their husband somehow falls on it and bleeds to death.   Five hundred cases in my inventory. These claims are resolved through negotiations or court. 


What we cannot do is reverse time and make that injury or death go away. 




The lesson from all of this:  enjoy your life, it may be shorter than you anticipate. 





















My need for stimulation was recently sated.
