• Caught in Turmoil
Lust and Sloth, quite the pair. While Lust embodies a passion to experience all there is at once. Sloth is hardly motivated to experience anything at all. The French have a term for "joy for life"; I read it earlier and cannot find it again. I have it. I hate being weighed down, held back, I am an explosion; everywhere at once. I want to -be-.
Lately I feel taken for granted. That all I do is for naught, and those I give the most to are under appreciated. I feel like I am spinning my wheels at 110% all-the-while that is considered the bare minimum. I give, and give, and really cannot give more than I am. I am not indecisive, I think of things to do, I know what I want, and I do my best to only complain when I think it will affect change or I am powerless to change the situation myself.
Initiative; you either have it or you don't. I don't think it stems from a fear or apprehension -of- acting, rather there is no incentive or drive to act at all. This is worrisome and disheartening.
The sick thing is this is how I -feel-; and as retarded and hippy-like as it sounds, I know there are a few that won't like how I feel, and will allow my feeling to hurt their feelings. How silly and selfish, these are my feelings. Don't go making this about you. This is not a personal attack on anyone, merely an observation. Poise your reaction carefully and make sure your explanations do not sound like excuses.
More to come (I have to eat).
