--SEEMS LIKE YOU’VE GOT IT ALL
FIGURED OUT
…Tonight the ghosts are a
little over-stimulated. I can hear their
stomachs growl, feel their sheets tighten around my neck.
…Not everybody likes laying
their guts out on the table, but everybody wishes they were with someone who
would.
…Tornadoes hop, they don’t
just land in one place. That’s how I know it’s
not elephants stomping around the house.
…If we’re being honest, aren’t
we all just trying to be seen, to matter?
…Don’t be nervous to go for
it. You’re here for a reason.
…Just because you understand
the mechanics of what keeps you alive, that doesn’t mean it’s any less than
magic. After all, everybody’s kept alive
by magic.
…So, not even is the whole
situation horrible but my guilt makes it worse.
…Are you lonely, and if so,
what do you do about it?
…Farther or further? I never know.
Father? I had two of them and
still don’t know.
…When I think I’ve gotten to
the darkest point I could ever reach with my writing, a shovel appears, dirt
starts flying up over the steep hole and I drop down farther.
…Now’s a good time to think
about something else, but I’m having a hard time.
…You can’t keep things the way
they are. They change. They go away.
There has never been an exception to this rule.
…If you have to ask, “Was it
fun for you?” chances are it probably wasn’t.
…It’s important to remember
when you get un-friended or blocked that there are other friends out there and
that the friend who un-friended you probably wasn’t really your friend to
start with.
…Sometimes I don’t even
recognize the world we’re living in.
…You want to learn how to fit
in with people, you have to learn how to say you’re sorry.
…The fact that you think you’ll
be fine only proves how fine you will not be.
…It doesn’t matter what I
think, it only matters what you’re going to do next.
…Everything is pretty
understandable if you take away what people do to you and the shapes they assume
and what they do to you.
…Some people just have to have
the last word, so I usually let them have it.
…“To a man who is afraid,
everything rustles.” Sophocles said
that, and I believe him.
…Memory is the resurrection
that keeps you rooted to the past.
…Trusting your head, or trusting
your heart—isn’t that the ultimate guess?
