the Yellow Wallpaper
That is a short story by...ummm Charlotte Perkins Gilman, I believe. You should read it. It is one of the earliest examples of feminist prose, and was outlawed and burned all over the place.
Everyone is so depressed right now. I am kind of having trouble spreading myself a little thin. This doesnt for a second mean that I dont love being here for everyone, I have just been doing some serious processing with a couple different folks, and man, it is exhausting.
So, is it the summer? The weather? The fact that our community seems to be segregating itself more and more? What is going on, and how do we fix this? Isnt this what we are here for? To help and support eachother?
I myself have been feeling a little ousted of late. I dont have the money to go to waterworld, and I work on Sundays anyway. I guess some of my feelings are self imposed, due to something that happened to me a couple of months ago. I kind of developed selective agoraphobia, I guess.
Anyway, I just wanted to point out that there are quite a few folks right now that are feeling way worse about life than they should be. If I suggested leading or mediating a group therapy thing, would anyone be interested? (insert cliched hippie joke here. Maybe if we could help eachother, we could help ourselves.
Also, get on top of your recipes to me!!
