The truth is that I have been in emotional pain for many weeks now. When I wrote that I was okay, it was only a half-truth. I'm alive.
I hate journaling but I started a journal yesterday. The reason that I hate journaling is because I hate re-reading them. And so I desided that my journal would be a repository of feelings but I'm going to throw it out, burn it, whatever when I'm done. It will be the toilet that I regurgitate my negativity into.I hate reading my raw thoughts because they're so "dumb" sounding. I don't know how else to put it. It's hard enough living through moments and emotions the first time without re-living the outrageous ups and downs. I kept a journal from when I was pregnant with Sarah to a while after. The only reason that I never threw it away is because it has all of my thoughts when I was pregnant. The other shit...jeez! It's incredibly painful for me to read through how confused and in denial I was. I also look so horribly selfish: that's what I see when I read my thoughts.
My hokey little journal from 1980-1982Of course in scanning it I had to read a few lines. UGH. Bi-polar central! I can't open it back up to quote it so you'll have to take my word for it.
There's all this crap roiling around in my head about life purpose and meaning. Usually I like those things. Right now, it's a pain in my ass.
Are you entertained yet? Well this is Lisa, from the land of real-ness, signing off.
Listening to: NOTHING!
