Inescapable miles

Yesterday, let me write about something yesterday. I lost some focus, I don't know why because there were no particular reasons but I did; I guess we all do from time to time. I guess we all get kind of lost for no particular reason, just lost in the hours and minutes that make up the day. So I lost some focus on the things that bring me happiness within my life, it was weird, I wasn't down or anything (I've not felt that way for the longest while, thankfully) but the happy things just seemed so distant from me. 

But it's strange, how at such times when you're struggling some, an intervention comes along right on cue to shake you back into shape. How does that happen so? And it's even stranger how such an intervention (or as in my case interventions) come from the simplest of things; things that happen most days anyway. A phone call, a text message, some silly comment posts on here; just anything that resembles a conversation between two people. They all happened last night and they were not specific to my needs at the time - my lack of focus was never mentioned nor discussed. 

However, it helped immensely, made my focus pin-sharp again and made me realise all the things in my life that bring me happiness; things I am so grateful for. The greatest thing about it? There was no physical contact; it was just words spoken, voices unseen but memorised, letters strung together to make sentences - that's all. Such things are so simple but have such immense power; it's the small things in life - I always refer to that statement.

I guess sometimes we find ourselves separated from the people in life we love, for whatever reason, by inescapable miles; be it physically or mentally. It's the nature of life, of just being; but at least they are there in my life and they make a difference regardless of the distance of the road.........
