Contempt

Posted on January 22, 2017 by joey

I feel plenty of contempt. Daily. Rummaging through my pages of contempt is messy, and y’all know I like things tidy.
When contempt becomes entertaining, or at least ironic, I hold it up to the light and let it cast written shadows on the walls. Like pretty paperweights, hope, gratitude, and humility can constrain a great deal of contempt.

    This has stayed with me overnight, I can’t get it out of my head. It sounds like you have found a good strategy. Thank you for this.
