Stuck

Should be studying for midterms, should be cleaning, should be working. All that means is that it is a perfect time to write and sort some thoughts out. I have been so incredibly stuck lately. I have been stuck in nearly every sense you could imagine, except for the obvious- physically. I haven't gotten stuck in the mud, or caught in the rain or anything like that. I guess the mud and rain could go hand in hand, especially with it being such a rainy autumn here. However, I have been stuck in many other aspects. Stuck in: my writing, my head, school, anxiety, and fear. I have become someone I didn't think was possible. I have become someone I don't know when I look in the mirror. Who is that girl looking back? The one that looks so beautiful but doesn't believe it. The girl that looks put together and happy and thriving. I truly don't recognize her. I don't recognize her because I don't feel any of it. I've reached that point in my life whe...

Rainy Autumn Day Thoughts

Always inside of my head. Rarely ever out. Game after game after game. Psyching myself out. Is it good, bad? Is it right, wrong? Is it going to work, fail? Is it honest and true? Is it worth it? What is worth? How do we measure it? Why.. do we care so much And judge ourselves so harshly comparing ourselves to each other and others to us and our past. ~~~~~~~~ It makes one wonder. Or at least it makes me wonder. Wonder why we do what we do. Why it seems like we are programmed to

Tomorrow

As I've grown older I realize the power of words more and more. Especially on days like today.  I'm sure you all understand what I mean- those days where everything you say seems to be wrong? Or how about that day when you just can't find the right word? The words just keep flowing through your mind, becoming jumbled.  You just cannot pin them down.  Yup, one of those days.  So you start to figure that tomorrow will be a better day. What hope, what belief, what imagination. How can tomorrow be better?  Tomorrow never actually comes.  To say that tomorrow will be better and to believe it... that is quite the belief.  How can you believe in something unattainable? Yet we do.  We all do.  You see the belief in the unattainable so many times.  A belief in things that we know aren't true, but desperately wish could be. 

Ruts

It's been a long time since anything has been posted.  Far too long.  Life has been busy.  Exams, got a job, quit the job, grandma died, found two new jobs, contemplated a relationship, dismissed another, and now currently visiting my sister in BC. I felt in such need of a vacation.  I don't really have the money to afford it, but I don't feel the need to spend money either.  Life had been draining for too long, and I had been stuck in a rut. I lacked motivation and desire to get out of bed, and then once out of bed I did not want to do anything but sit and watch time go by.  I had a hard time cooking food and only ate when I began to feel weak, for the sake of eating.  The days had blended into one another so well. I couldn't figure things out that I wanted to figure out.  I was truly stuck in a rut.  I wanted to understand why I reacted the way I did to my Grandmother's death.  I wanted to understand why I felt an overwhelming

Left? Right? Straight? Backwards?

Ever wonder if your heart is going in the right direction? I do.  I wonder all the time.  It wasn't until a few weeks ago that I reached the conclusion that if your heart is spinning you in a seemingly never-ending circle, then you are going in the right direction. Despite this realization that I have reached, my overall view on relationships and love and the likes hasn't changed.  I still struggle and I still over think and analyze things.  Recently I was discussing with a friend how you know if you truly are interested in someone or not- how does one make that distinction between liking someone as a person or friend versus liking someone as something more?  I guess that alone is why I try to establish a friendship before a relationship.  Establishing a friendship creates a stable foundation to build a relationship upon, and you are able to figure out if there is an extra, genuine spark there (instead of purely lust). Lately I have had two guys on my m...

Two Places

Between two places That is where I am Which one is home? I don't know anymore I'm just between two places I feel like I have nowhere to go But everywhere At the same time I'm just between two places I'm in a place of myself

Lost versus Loss

I have lost my keys I have lost my pen I have lost my sunglasses But most importantly, I have lost my way home I have traveled far and wide I have seen many things And experienced much more But I have still lost my way home
