A few things.

I am extremely unhappy. Whereas a few days ago I had a little bit of hope and miniscule amounts of positive energy, these last 48 hours I have been depleted. My heart has slowed and my body has sunken in.

I am terrified. Today in class I could hardly breathe. I tried to duck out before it started but I ran into the professor. I could barely speak and I was trying not to get sick the whole time.

The child I was.

sky slate gray

under her yellow umbrella

she smiles

a walk is a journey

the moment lives as long as I

and brings me life
it tells the truth
and renews my strive

but… most of all
it hides my fears
and helps me stand tall
and hides my tears

Something I wrote years ago expressing my only real goal.Â I was raised southern baptist.Â And while most people fell on their knees and bowed to god I wanted to be one.Â And I read some of the Torah, Quran, a lot on Buddha, the Hindu deities, Shinto etc.Â I figured that I’d wipe the slate clean and just give all beings the chance to create their own universe to their own liking and they could be free to interact or not as they will.Â None of this forced acquiescence and forced submission that currently exists. If so many ideals, rules, expectations, mores, traditions, religions, […]
