Long time coming

It's been a long time coming, did you see it? I knocked you down from the blind side, a sucker-punch under your chin while you are not looking. When you least expected it; when you let down your guard; when you took a breather. Why did you even bother? It's a battle that you can never win even if you knock me ten times over, because you can never keep me down. So when you least expected it; when you led down your guard; when you took a breather, I knocked you down from the blind side, a sucker-punch under your chin while you are not looking. It's been a long time coming, did you see it?

Woah! It's been a long time since I have written anything creative. The pen and paper are gone. The old iPad is gone. I am still using the old Samsung mobile phone, but I am totally uninspired. The mind wants to write, but I am too lazy. Ah... laziness, I guess this sums up my physical self. Out of shape, out of tangent with the life I am suppose to live. I think I am going out of my mind with my lack of sleep; lack of a much needed rest that I do not think I can afford at the moment. How stupid, I think to myself, I am not to trust the Lord more now. I used to turn to God in the past easily, now I am simply lazy. The praises are hard to come by and the prayers are token ones. The eyes are dry and the spirit is weak. What must be done to me to wake me from my waking-slumber? I think this entry will remind me of that. It's time to wake up and shake my world by first shaking myself out of this deep-sleep. It's time to rise and awake to a new dawn. Uncle-hood is beckoning (40s). Either I keep fit to keep up with God's agenda for my life or I remain sloppy and waste my life away.
