1.18.16 The real shit and the real fan

     It's really important to study and learn how to get good at all the secondary reactions, in life, to the primary events. Because they're like tinder that ignites at a moment's notice, messing everything up badly. 
     And when the shit really hits the fan, when it really does, after you already thought it had done so, a whole number of times, and then you get really surprised, kind of like the really BIG WAVE finally comes on the scene, you say to yourself, "Fuck! None of those other waves really were a problem ever. "
     When the real shit hits the real fan, and you need to step up, then all that practicing about how to deal with all those secondary reactions comes home to roost. Serves you beautifully. Ensures that all those big huge all over the walls emotions and fears can get settled as well as possible. So they don't go screw up your health and everything else. Like relationships . Bill paying. Schedules. House cleaning. So everything doesn't go to hell in a handbasket.
     So that you can hunker down. By yourself or with a friend, on the phone. Or a partner or beloved or a good neighbor. You can settle down, and you can hold on, and realize, that for this moment, everything is really all right.
