Payday Someday

"Payday is someday for everyone" This is a direct quote from a very good friend ( thanks K.M.)
He believes that this is true, he told it to me at a time that I imagine he thought I needed to hear it. He was right, but I don't know if I believe it. He claims that one day everyone of us will pay for the damage we have done to other's. At the time he first told this to me I imagined a huge, ugly embarrassing spectacle that I, of course, got to witness. There was even mention of gorilla glue, baseball bats and a Hobbit from the Lord of the Rings. How they all fit together now after all this time is unclear, but at the time it all made sense and was very uplifting. But over time I have come to understand that's not what he means at all. It's not a fate that befalls you, it's not the act of a vengeful God, (because God is not vengeful) but it is something that we will suffer inside, it will be inner turmoil. We will pay by feeling the pain that we've caused other's. Much scarier and not nearly as much fun as the image of the gorilla glue, ball bat and the Hobbit. He He He, a Hobbit from the Lord of the Rings, that was funny stuff. So from now on I keep my nose clean do as little damage as possible just in case this payday someday thing is legit. Anyway the way I see it I'm all paid up now, time for someone else to pick up the tab.
