i kissed you last year! when people ask about my new years '06, it's like,"keegan and i were just laying around in bed and then we looked at my digital clock and were like oh, hey, it's midnight" "did you kiss?" "yeah" and no i really enjoyed the entry but i didn't read the lyrics/poetry all right, now i did. look, i don't like that resolution because it just makes an inevitability harder to live with in that association of guilt. i wouldn't get the impression that that resolution belongs to a go-getter. you could probably word every outcome (that of an attempt to do something without failing) into being a failure, i don't think anyone can make attempts and perfectly capture that emotion they envisioned and anticipated for their achievement (happiness, satisfaction, power, being able to contently look at yourself as a better developed person). there are so many ways to look at an outcome that failure is never clear because there are emotional expectations, too, not just "i either win this 100 yard sprint or i fail". and not just looking at things in terms of oh, if the glass is half full or half empty, that's just a dumb positive/negative thing that tries to put a lens over a situation. and things are never that simple, are they???
