When it’s time to quit

It’s sad to admit – it’s finally come to this.

Sometimes in life you just need to walk away.
It’s a sign of strength and not weakness.

It’s time.

The feeling has been growing over the past few years.

What started as a vague restlessness has grown into an undeniable desire for freedom.
For something else.

Some will understand.
Those that do not – will some day.

One can only commit so many of the few days we are allotted on this earth without a return for our effort.

In the beginning we were drawn together by something that existed only for a brief period.

She couldn’t do enough for me and everything was magical.
Bells rang and lights flashed and I thought I was the luckiest man in the world.

Something changed and the affection died.

She turned out to be a charlatan.

Taking and rarely giving back.

I was abandoned as she willing gave her time and favors to others while leaving me alone and lonely.

Lady-Luck-sized2Today I announce my divorce from Lady Luck.

See ya honey.
Watch the door on the way out.

I’m not sure how I’ll handle Las Vegas next year but it will be better as I won’t be expecting her to be by my side.

Getting divorced is liberating.

I’m grumpy but feel great.
