“Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be standing back on my feet?”

A song came on the radio today that caught my ear, as great tunes usually do on my new-found favourite radio station, AMP Radio in Calgary, that caused me to think about the past few months of my shredded life.

To provide context, here’s the aforementioned tune by Adventure Club, feat. the Kite String Tangle (awesome metaphor), called Wonder, embedded via YouTube below.

The lyrics, “Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be standing back on my feet?”, struck me as being not only poetic, but also a virtual snapshot of the state my psyche has been in for, what seems like an eternity, the past 11 months.  My state-of-mind was metaphorically struck by a massive baseball bat and I began to think, what, indeed, would it be like for me now to be back on my feet?  Of course, that begs the clarification that I do feel as if I have been dealt a serious blow to my ambitions in life, as well as everything I wanted to accomplish, via my Journalism diploma.  I had visions of perhaps running my own paper, and while grandiose in the extreme perhaps, the road to such a place would have been a wonderous one indeed.  Far from the plodding my life was before, and a certain re-awakening took place which I thought was there to stay.  But, of course, life has a way of dealing reality in the most harshest of ways and those plans seem to be as far away from me as the most distant of star systems.

My original plan was, at the beginning, to get this degree in Journalism, and then to go knocking on the doors of some tech magazine and get myself hired so I could start writing my ass off about all things tech and cool.  ‘Twas simple in the beginning for sure.  But somewhere along the way I got too stuck in the idea that I needed real world experience at some newspaper first before anyone would even think about hiring me.  I wouldn’t say that the newspaper reporter experience hasn’t been rewarding, it has far more than I could have imagined!  The people I’ve spoken to at length are those that the everyday person wouldn’t have any access to, like premiers and mayors and other such persons of stature! All in all, I suppose that the whole experience wasn’t totally lost on me, but unfortunately, it was simply a matter of physiology that got me in the end, ergo, if one’s body can’t handle the stress of it all, then one needs to take steps to ensure one’s survival.

Someday, I suppose, I will get back on my feet.  And this writer will, once again, delight his readers, far and wide.
