Cuz who i am hates who I've been

I got a lot of things done today, and I paced myself and didn't freak out about doing them.
there is, in the end, the letting go.

I'm proud of myself today because even though I am in the throes of what I believe to be a very terrible feeling bipolar mixed state, I showered and ate something this morning.
In Which Something Oooh Occurred

And it felt like a winter machine that you go through and then you catch your breath and winter starts again, and everyone else was springbound. And when I chose to live, there was no joy, it's just a line I crossed. I wasn't worth the pain my death would cost, so I was not lost or found....But when you live in a world, well, it gets in to who you th ought you'd be. And now I laugh at how the world changed me. I think life chose me after all.

because...
I did not get angry at anyone.
I did not cut up my arms even though I really wanted to.
I lived through the day.
I talked to friends about a problem I'm having.
"I thought I could trust you...you said I could...you lied and I was so wrong."
"You said you would be there for me. That you would always love me. That I'd never let you down. Then you changed your mind..so now I have memories. AND I WEAR THEM ON MY WRIST."
-Endevour Now. Do Something Intense...to end this
END SI
if only it were that simple
feel free to message me :)

I've had nothing but happy thoughts so far today!
Since you ask, most days I cannot remember.
I walk in my clothes unmarked by the voyage,
Then the most unnameable lust returns
Even then I have nothing against life


Without pain, there would be no suffering,
without suffering we would never learn from our mistakes.
To make it right, pain and suffering is the key to all windows,
without it, there is no way of life.
