If I told you I was not one with my body at this moment, would you laugh? Would you tell me that "out-of-body" experiences are things of the mythical worlds? I looked down at my life, today. Down - not at. It was...enlightening, to say the least. How can one be so destructive? So...bitter. I don't remember getting this way. Life has handed me so many things - of which I have made both fruit punch and lemonade. And yet, I can't help but see how I am pushing everything away. It's ridiculous to see how hard I have worked for some things, only to screw them up in the end. What can one do at that point, though? Do you look back and say, "Wow - that was a mistake."? Or do you look back and say, "I don't actually regret that at all...despite what one might think."? And if you think the latter, what does that mean? It's not that I don't value these things in my life. I do - whole heartedly. So, maybe the issue isn't that I don't care. Maybe the issue is that I care too much. Maybe it hurts too much to lose these things on something other than my own accord. Maybe it's just easier this way.
