A story with no ending.

Maybe it’s that most of us don’t know what we want to be. Don’t have a mind or passion for anything in particular. So we drift through life. Which may be all right. By learning to adapt. To let things happen. And then either accepting our fate. Or maybe becoming angry and exasperated by it. Anyway, here’s the bottom line. I’ve decided to be happy. By assuming that I was meant to be. That it was no accident. Yes, I’m part of a grand scheme. A storybook life. Unfolding. A paragraph, a page, a chapter at a time. I’m the protagonist.  And the name of the enchanting novel-like story is ‘A Life: The Pursuit of Happiness.’ I’m anticipating a happy ending. At the very least. Better yet, a story with no ending. –Jim Broede
