looking forward

today my heart is light. it's been a while since i've been able to say that. sometimes the lifting of a heavy heart requires a conversation and some honesty - which most of us seem to shy away from unfortunately. but after a few tears and a confession of hurt feelings, i feel better - …

Jesus. help.

i hate this feeling. i'm angry and don't really know why. i hate being such an external processor. having feelings just bump around on the inside and feeling so agitated and having NO CLUE what's really going on. i mean i could focus on the simple surface stuff... but that doesn't really get me anywhere. …
