Last night was the second time I experienced a weird pain on my lower back. In case it’s relevant, the first experience, coincidentally, happened at around the same time (about after midnight) a few days before. I’m just glad it didn’t happen when we were out of town for a show.

I’m having trouble describing the pain; I guess it’s like a mild cramp… but more akin to a very bad case of “kabag” (gas) – only it’s on my lower back (Is that even possible?)

The pain was severe enough to keep me awake all night; no matter what position I shifted to couldn’t alleviate it. And it wasn’t something I could ignore – I had to move because if I laid still – it would get too painful. That experience would last for about an hour, then disappear.

I’m wondering if I should have this checked. Very weird.

In light of a certain “issue,” I recalled a song I wrote in the past.

It had a fairly “generic” message I guess, but I couldn’t help but feel how apt the message could be for both sides – how both indecision and closed-mindedness don’t lead anywhere productive. If we all had the mindset of what the song had suggested, we could’ve avoided it altogether (wether it be by one side acting sooner, or the other simply being more receptive)

I just felt the need to vent out my frustrations because of how long the negative energy was allowed to “fester” before it was finally addressed (not to mention what it took to actually address it). Relationships had been needlessly strained because of the shortcomings of both sides, that much is certain.

In any case, the worst seems to be over… but at what cost? (sigh)

Don’t you just hate how true the term “hindsight is always 20/20″ is most of the time?
