I'm All About Them Words

I haven't written in a while. I've lacked motivation and inspiration. Not to mention time. Work has luckily kept me busy which is great for my head. Keeps me from having to worry about other things.

I wish I had the motivation to write more often. Or at least something worth saying every once in a while so I'd have an excuse to write. Everything in my mind lately just sounds so juvenile and naive and I'm almost embarrassed to let anyone else in on it. Whenever I try to write it comes back in full circle as basically what I feel and what I feel is constantly the same. I have no insightful words of wisdom. I have no dramatic life stories. I have my emotions and they get me nowhere. And see, even now as I reread what I just wrote, it sounds pointless. Who, but me, would care about how I feel?

I adore words but I am not a person of many of them. What I mainly write in my spare time outside of this blog is about people. About people, and life, and different situations they are put in. I write what they say, what they think, how they feel. I focus on the people and not the imagery around them. I can't be poetic whenever I want to. It just slips out when it feels like it. No, it's not a bad thing. But when I read other writing - writing that is full of such beautifully descriptive words, I envy it. I want to be able to write breathtaking settings - a passionate sunset, a powdery snowfall, the roaring waves of the ocean. But not only do I want to write them, I want to be able to incorporate them.

Going back to feelings, how is this entry supposed to be interesting to someone other than me? More importantly, do I really care? I guess not.

To know that I know that you know now...


I don't know - my catch-phrase as of late. I don't know what to do, what to feel, how to feel, why I am like this. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I'm confused and scattered and my heart and my head are fighting like siblings unable to come to any sort of agreement. One has to be right, but where is the mediator? Too many questions, too many thoughts, too many feelings. Too much and yet, too little. I don't know.

I don't know. What do you want me to say? Do you want me to say that you can do no wrong? Do you want me to tell you I'll be okay and you don't have to worry? Do you want me to tell you it's me and not you? No. It takes two to tango and this dancer has two left feet.
Do I follow my heart and ignore the warnings of my head?
Do I follow my head and pass up probably the best opportunity that has yet to come?
And yet, again, it takes two to tango. So I am in a disastrous state of mind and I am not even thinking about the other half of this situation.

Then there is the other issue at hand to which I have no insight for. I have no control over what may or may not happen, and frankly? Ha. Frankly I just don't give a shit. Whatever is going to happen will happen, and I will play my part as best as I see fit. But...I don't know. How am I supposed to prepare for the unpredictable? What is waiting for me at the other end of the tunnel? A light? Likely not. Will things change? For the better or the worse?

I don't know. And I'm scared.
