My Salome Nature

Somewhere along the way you realize the desire to be perfect is not the accomplishment of that feat. Either that paralyzes you, or you make your peace with it. This is my attempt at peace.

I used to say things. I came here and wrote and somehow, interesting things seeped out. Sometimes.

It's been a such an up and down ride. I feel sad, and wonder if I should. I read my last post, in November, and wonder where that went. When and why did I give up so much of myself? And I keep looking ahead thinking, someday, I'm going to be past all this and I will be so glad and grateful. But somehow, I'm not moving past it. I'm staying stuck and allowing it to happen. I feel like a drug user who doesn't know how to get clean but wishes for it desperately. I look to an imaginary future, I guess. The one I imagine is so lovely compared to the one I actually see coming.

Oh well. I forgot to take my stupid Celexa three days in a row. Maybe that's it.
