have i really been here for a year? because right now it still really just feels like a dream to me. it seems as though i've been separated from reality for so long that i don't have any idea of where i've been this whole time. i'm not even sure what i want here..
and that's probably been my problem all along.
everything that i've wanted, everything i've needed has been attached to something, to a person or a place. but what i really need, is just to be happy... I finally realized tonight that it has nothing to do with circumstance. i have permission to be accepted for who i am and for what i'm truly passionate about. after all... i was created like that for a reason.
this is one of those feelings that I hope i never forget. i would save myself from so many mistakes - if i could just learn to be happy with myself.
the other thing is... i love theresa. i mean i can't write anything in my journal that doesn't at least somehow loosely relate to my love life, but my gosh i love this woman - nothing and no one could replace the incredible impact she has had on my life. we have a lot of stories left to write...and read, together.
this has all been quite worth it. in fact, i'm looking forward to doing it again - changing, that is.
go see garden state. do it....do it.
