It has been a wonderful day thus far, I don't believe anything could put a damper on it, and that's saying quite a lot.

Glad to hear that you're enjoying your big day. I think that's how every birthday should be celebrated.

It would certainly be something to look forward to if they were always so nice. Then again, i'd wish every day were so pleasant ^_^

Mmhm...it's a shame that some times things just don't work out the way we want them to though...but knock on wood and hope that you'll get those days.

I suppose it's all about the balance. Without the really bad days, there's be nothing worth loving about the good ones. Each bad day is just racking up and good day for the future, and I have a lot of good days in store for me. ^_^ I think we all do.

Hmm...very philosophical, but very true at the same time. Really now? I feel like I've been waiting for one for a long time unfortunately.

Some people medicate themselves, I think happy thoughts. Every little thing helps to cope sometimes. You'll get yours, it just means that when it does happen, it will be a long-standing happiness. ^_^

The medication doesn't work because one minute you feel great, but when it wears off you're back at square one. Believe me, I tried. Right now I just stick with my pup and cigarettes...tacos and margaritas. Hm...sorta lose that sense of hope waiting eight years for a break. I blame fucking Karma.

That's one of the reasons I'm not fond of most psychiatry. It'a all psyocho-phamacology to them, pills for every problem. I know the feeling. It's good that you found something that works for you, though cigarettes are still a form of drug.

Karma isn't cruel, merely fair, balancing everything out. I doubt you've done anything so terrible as to deserve such unhappiness, you're too nice for that.

Hm, yeah those pills don't work for long until you feel that crash and burn feeling. It's a horrid feeling, no one should have to go through that. Ah but I've been smoking way before I started feeling the way I do now.

Hm...it's the only thing besides myself I can blame, so I'm venting it all out on that. Heh, you're sweet Hinata but I don't think nice is the word to describe me.

I'm fortunate, my family was too proud to accept that kind of nonense just because someone with a slip of paper told them so. It's amazing what pride and sheer force of will can accomplish. It's one thing to know you're broken, it's another thing to be believe you can't be fixed. It's so unhealthy, you know what those chemicals are doing to your body better than I do. Have you considered looking into that electronic cigarette thing? Supposed to be much better for you, and you can even use it inside. Legally.

Now that's not true. I hear Americans are fond of blaming God for everything as well? And circumstance as a whole. But blaming any of that, even yourself, isn't going to change things, that requires action. You've been quite nice to me, and Neji certainly seems fond of you as well, as does Naruto. Though you could probably stand to be a bit more civil to his father.

Mm...true...I have the same opinion, and I know how the whole psychology thing works...and I honestly don't think it makes a difference either. I know, but hey...I can't enjoy the same taste as I do with cigarettes. Like I told many people, "I would quit if I could."

It's true...we do blame God for our troubles...a lot. Especially towards grieving. And don't worry about Minato...I don't plan on having any more conversations with the man.

I think a part of the allure of therapy is just having someone who listens to you, who for that hour or so pretends to care. Knowing that they're only there because you pay them, it makes thing much less meaningful to me. I've had enough people who were paid to act like they give a damn, it doesn't make things any better, so I don't bother anymore. That kind of thing doesn't work on me, Asuma; we both know you wouldn't quit, even if you were guarunteed success, because you simply don't want to, and don't care too. I'm not sure if I'd classify it as apathy or stubbornness, but there is an almost endearing quality to it. ^^

I think grief does that to a person, there's really nothing we can do about that. I've cursed fate several times in pain. And that's good to hear. Poor Naruto, it can't be easy for him. It is difficult to connect with estranged family, particularly when someone you respect constantly illustrates nothing but hatred and scorn for that person.

...That and I know the "Therapeutic communication" tactics all too well..and I honestly don't think they work. It's just a never ending loop of silly questions like "How does that make you feel?" or "Can you describe to me what you are feeling" bullshit. Hm, seems like you know me very well Hinata, haha. I would put my finger on stubbornness.

Naruto is a good kid, and I enjoy his company...and I honestly feel bad for the kid dealing with his father who cares about another person, and a mother who just...well I'm not sure about her yet either...I dunno I think right now he's looking for good friends to look to since his parents don't seem to want to bond with him.

Ha, the thought of someone asking you that after every few sentences gives me a very distinct image of a Freudian look-alike being beaten heavily with a clipboard. I seem to be watching too much TV, which is odd, because I don't actually have one. And I'm a quick study when it comes to some people, though it helps that I'm accustomed to that particular brand of stubbornness. I can't exactly say much on the subject, I'm partial to the smell myself. Someone on campus seems to have a habit of smoking before class, every morning the entire restroom smells like fresh Marlboros, and yet whoever she is she never gets caught.

I'm not sure it's that they don't want to bond with him, but rather that he may not be ready to accept them as a big part of his life. As far as I've noticed things seem alright between he and Ms. Uzumaki, I haven't really broached the subject of his parents with him. As for Namikaze-san, he seems to be a decent person, and it's obvious he cares for people in general, let alone his own son. It just... It can't ( ... )
