I had some revelations recently and, well.. It really hurt. As you may've noticed by my little breakdowns the last few nights. But I'm pretty sure I got myself in a different mindset now so I should be good to go for a while.
Speaking of those, I never knew writing your thoughts could be so therapeutic when it's most important! Dealing with the pain when you're still feeling it and not just fixing the damage later on makes a huge difference.

Anyway so uh. I could really use some 'intellectual cuddles' right about now. I don't care who or what you are, I just want to relaxe and spill some dark laments back and forth. Show me your scars and I'll show you mine. And then we can cry and hug. Yeah? Yeah.

Speaking of, Cypher, dude. You're so awesome, I'm sorry I can never think of what to say to you. My mind just draws a blank. But rest assured I definitely appreciate you, y'know?
That was creepy of me, haha.








If I were 100% honest about what I think is going on with me, I might be ignored entirely or thrown in a madhouse. Or both. What's funny is just the other day I was telling someone who is part of the new-age "love and light" crowd that although they have the right idea by trying to spread the light, they might not be able to identify it as well as someone who's been through the dark. I was referring to myself, but didn't want to sound egotistical >_> But anyway, I think people who have been through, or are going through, something that's hard to explain to others are more in tune with what happiness or contentment they find, because they know how bad it can get. Therefore, with something to compare it with, they (we) can appreciate it that much more when we do come to terms with strange epiphanies. Or, hell, even when we don't come to terms with them.
I feel quite the same, actually... I have trouble finding the words to comment on photos so I rarely do. That's one of the reasons I can comment so much further to your journals, I guess my mind sorta works more in words than pictures. I do indeed appreciate you too. You actually inspired me to be more expressive rather than just telling people events, this way I can truly vent what's bothering me without people thinking "Really? THAT'S what he's going on about?" I don't have to worry so much about what specific events others have been through, but more their reaction to said events. And after all, that's what truly matters; not so much an event but what that event does to us.
For example, if one is stabbed, it's not the knife that matters... it's the wound. We could study the knife all day, but we'd bleed-out regardless of what we found... or we could address the wound. "There is a knife!" tells people nothing. "I am bleeding!" tells people everything. The "why" disappears, replaced by "how can this situation be addressed..."
