Bob's Manuscript

  • Colorado, here I come!

    8/30/2010 --

    So it's a bus... so it's a bunch of old people... they're going to this little hippy town in CO, called Manitou Springs, and I'm going with them! sweet Jesus, it'll be so good to get away... all expenses paid trip! thank you, God!

    hear there's hot springs there that will wash the negativity away, too... wonder if they'll let me bathe in it... that's just what I need right now...

  • Dance like you're 75.
    8/26/2010 --

    you know, everyone always talks about dancing like nobody's watching. I say, dance like you're 75.... today, I was eating my cherry flavored jello, and scribbling in my manuscript, not really able to come up with much... when suddenly, Alice, this 75 year old widow, came and asked me to dance. there's no music, I thought... but then I said, "what the heck! sure!"

  • Your everlasting patience will be rewarded sooner or later.

    Patience
    8/22/2010 --

    they served chinese food last night... and this is what my cookie said... "your everlasting patience will be rewarded sooner or later."

    at this moment, I feel that all I've got is the ability to control me. I can't control anything else around me... including how fast things happen.

    fortunately, they haven't kicked me out, but they have been asking me how long I think I'll be there.... they love me, I think they really do, but I'm another mouth to feed, too...

    oh, Bob, when will your day come?

  • Perfection
    8/16/2010 --

    beginning to think that the more we try to be perfect and lead perfect lives... the further away from it we get.

    not that I necessarily think I've been chasing perfection... but on some level I think we all kind of do... we all really want things to be perfect in our eyes... I guess the real tragedy is when we only want to be perfect in other's eyes...

    I'm three weeks away from being homeless again... far from anyone's standard of perfect, I'm guessing...

  • “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
    Maya Angelou quote

    The story inside you
    8/12/2010 --

    if the story goes untold, it will forever break your soul...

    if the story sits inside, it will never have the chance to become alive...

    don't live with the guilt of an untold story... it's much better said out loud...

    i might be a little off track with this one... so simple, yet so hard to put in few words
    like the great Maya

    live and let live your story... it deserves to be told... ***
    oooooh, I might be on to something with this one...

  • Somewhere out there...
    8/8/2010 --

    So, it's day 5 of me volunteering.... everything seems to be going GREAT, but turns out, their maintenance guy can do about everything I'm doing, so they won't pay... they said I could stay a while... a mo. maybe, since they like my attitude and willingness to help... which I'm grateful for, but it doesn't really advance my agenda... however, I can take time to write... so I suppose it does that way...

    so that's what I think I'm going to do... yep... just until I find SOMETHING... SOMEWHERE OUT THERE... where are you, job? Where are you, paycheck?

  • Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this planet.

    Giving Back
    8/3/2010 --

    So I opened up a fortune cookie a few days ago, and this is what it said... and yes, I buy them in bulk at the dollar store owned by a couple of my Asian comrades (I'm a regular, what can I say?).

  • What's the point, God?
    7/29/2010 --

    Dear God,

    I need your help today. I'm finding it hard to continue writing this manuscript, when it's not helping me find work or providing me with income right now. My heart tells me I must write, but my belly tells me to do whatever I need to do to survive... hell, I've had to bathe at a truck stop the last two nights in a row.... talk about feeling hopeless...

    So, what's the point of this all, God? I need you to tell me I'll be alright.

    And, I have a confession. I've been using lotto again.

  • “For everything you have missed, you have gained something else,
    and for everything you gain, you lose something else.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Missing Something
    7/26/2010 --

    Let's see...

    For everything a person sees but does not really see, they have seen something else... for everything a person obtains, they will release something else....?

    hmmmm OK, Bob, this one needs some work...

    If we see what is not in front of us, but something else, does this not mean we are being blinded by a diversion... or in denial about truth? if someone has to lose something to gain something, it had better be worth it to lose... or to gain... all in the same.

    this one clearly needs some work... come back later.

  • "Today I am going to be a radical success!"

    Radical Success
    7/22/2010 --

    was waiting on phone calls all day yesterday from my future employer, but nothing, except a show on lotto...
    about all the past winners, but somehow, it was sad...

    the irony, is that I went out and bought 3 tickets last night.... only got 2 numbers tho.. why do you do this, Bob?

    note: 75% of winners are quick picks...

    been reading about radical success, and know the first step is desiring it.... I DESIRE IT, GOD!
