That dawning little Realization that you’re slowly losing a grip on things.

​It comes on slowly, like some creeping solvent, designed to strip strength from mind and body.  As the pace of daily life increases exponentially, its impact on those at the tail end of its force leave them wondering wandering and wanting in its wake.  It’s surprisingly not just the stereotypical old, infirm and used by daters, who are struggling.  The indiscriminate machinations of Agent 007 Loosen, render the grip of even the most hardened humanoid akin to a wet stain on the wasteland of unstable reality.

Losing your grip physically, is really just a by-product of failing mechanics.  But it sure can be a nasty little slight and disturbing annoyance, when the pot you were confidently tipping your favorite steaming hot curry from, begins to feel as though it’s taken on an entity all of its own making. Furthermore after taking control directly from you, it decides to plot its own course trajectory just that little bit away from the designated container target you had set your mind signaled body on.

Your mind slide is somewhat different as far as mechanics go, being that it’s not muscle tendon bone sinew.  Its ethereal expansion makes it much more susceptible, as its reality is really completely different to anyone else’s and even your own perceived version.  Perception really is actually nothing when it comes to keeping a grip on reality and therein resides the dilemma.

​Reality is real and tangible, it follows rules laws outcomes. Keeping a bonded grip on the simplicity of that requires disciplined strength.  Especially when faced with the dogma of distraction pulling it apart before demolishing reconstituting and reshaping endless versions from our manufactured imagination.

To grip on is in our nature to win, letting go is losing our way on the path to reality.
