When the Bowling Alley is Full

Sometimes you have such grand ideas, good and great expectations. And sometimes, you get to the bowling alley, and all the lanes are full. Having your grand ideas let down is sometimes like walking into the bowling alley and seeing there are no vacancy, no room for you to play.
And sometimes, when you see the no vacancy at the bowling alley, you feel like everything is that way; one great unfulfilled ambition. Melodramatic, I know. But tonight, I feel this great exhale, the slight inward tilt of the shoulders, the sigh of being let down. But at least I drove to the bowling alley; sometimes hoping against the odds pays off only in the strengthening of one's ability to hope. And someday, I will go to the bowling alley, and there will be an open lane, and I will enjoy the simple pleasures of a grand idea being fulfilled.
