Thoughts and Ventings...
O6/10/02

I've discovered that you can't trust anyone to keep your confidence unless they are a priest or a psychiatrist.  Since I am not Catholic, I have to pay exceedingly expensive fees (money - which I don't really have, mind you) to talk to someone without having to worry about it getting around to people with whom I choose not to divulge details of my personal life.  Grrr...

So, to move or not to move??????  Should I hold on to my safety net after college and stay under my mother's roof?  Or, should I wipe the slate clean--go some place new.  I've been thinking about Oregon.  I have family out there.  So, it wouldn't be COMPLETELY scary.  Just
mostly scary. :)  Any thoughts?  Email me.

Sing me a Song of peace, oh my soul!
Give me the comfort I so longeth for.
Strengh to push on
To fight for one more breath.
But if it be my last,
Still let me have the chance
To fix my compass;
Or, at least
Learn to follow Your direction.

For so long, my heart has bled --
Drop by drop,
Slowly drying out my insides from within,
Until I felt no more
Save the harshness of the world.
I hunger and thirst for my ancient self.
The part of me that knew
I was worth
Infinite wealth.

I stumble and fall at every turn.
The incline never recedes.
My energy fades to black.
Parched, famished, and near death
I can do nothing
Save kneel and pray
On my knees.

I actually planned on going to bed early tonight and I couldn't sleep.  Why is that?  My brain won't turn off, and yet, I can't seem to use all that extra brain activity and focus it towards my studies.  Anyway, I'm sitting here listening to a song called "Breathing" by Lifehouse.  Here are th
e lyrics.  It gives me hope.  The radio plays this as a secular song, but let's face it.  Lifehouse is a Christian band, and if you listen to the lyrics as if they were being spoken to God, it's really moving.

April is the cruelest month, breading
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.

~T.S. Eliot
"The Burial of the Dead" (1922)
