Day 103

'Without a Paddle', Pen and Watercolour on Paper

It's something I've touched on briefly before but its relevance has shown itself again, what I am referring to is how we can have a knack for getting ourselves into trouble. This may come about by saying or doing the wrong thing at the wrong time, by being in the wrong place at the wrong time or by simply just having chosen that moment in time to self-destruct. For the most part we never see these moments coming as we lack foresight and instead have to realise in hindsight that there may be some back-peddling, some apologising and possibly a storm to ride out until we can emerge from a certain creek unscathed... especially if we don't have the necessary tools to make a speedy and hassle free exit.
