As my life re-arranges...like the grocer lost in thought as she stacks up the pleasing round textures of grapefruits...I live life like a job, somewhat content with the generous sick leave days, but always trying to figure out a way to get the hell out of the united states, so I can live with less absurdity.
Half my days are truly surreal, my thoughts mingle with movie reels, my de ja vu observations, "here I am, this morning at my keyboards...again...thinking the same thought...it's another day that feels much like yesterday morning, when I thought the same thing.
These days just run into each other like a dream, and if it wasn't for the unconscious slumber in-between I don't know I'd feel the same.
What you have here in this text your reading, is just a female with stellar galactic baggage.
I don't like to be literal, because I have too much of it around me, too much obviousness surrounds many people and places.
I live for those who feel deeply, who aren't afraid of pain, of love, of exposing themselves.
Writing is a way to liberate yourself. It's a way for me to expand on who I am, and like you, every day I am forced to face obstacles...things that I may or may not choose to concur.
But, it's always there isn't it? Things to challenge your better nature. Writing helps me with this. It also helps me to love more. It also encourages me to be angry, or sad, to feel things that I might want to ignore otherwise.
The mind is like a vault. It's up to you if you want to put a door on it. It's up to you if want to keep the windows.
Perspective is a power, and it comes from my vault to my voice.
