Huh.

There&#8217;s a current of anger running just beneath my skin that I can&#8217;t seem to let go of. I am so angry at specific people for specific (if somewhat nebulous) reasons (specifically, I am angry at people for not loving me the way I want to be loved, or at all, or not loving me when they said they would, or not respecting my friendship, or being a disappointment, or whatever whatever et cetera and so on) and I am so fucking angry at myself for not being able to climb up out of that petty-ass sludge and get all zen on the world&#8217;s ass. Because my life is great. My life is fucking great. There is suffering everywhere I look, all the way around me, 360 degrees, zoom out, suffering everywhere. But my life? I&#8217;m coasting. I&#8217;m doing fine. I have <i>nothing<\/i> to complain about. Seriously. The <i>only<\/i> thing missing from my life right now is that true love bullshit that I want but don&#8217;t believe in but really do because I&#8217;ve had it before and I&#8217;m delusional enough to think I can have it again, even if I doubt that I&#8217;m capable of it. <\/p>\n<p>I want to transcend all the shit. I want to call out each and every person who has broken my heart or my trust or my spirit and tell them to fuck off. I want to blow doors off hinges and sweep through lives like a force of nature that&#8217;s to be reckoned with and make sure every molecule under this tedious fucking sun understands that I am not to be fucked with. <\/p>\n<p>These are silly fantasies straight from the mind of someone who has made a lifetime of being an emotional doormat. These are the half-crazed mind movies of someone who is as lost as she is sure of where she&#8217;s going. These are feelings that will hopefully evaporate some day if I starve them of toxins long enough.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So the year is basically half over. Huh.
