cuando era nina

hey hey, all. my horoscope was good today. it talked about how it's been great just having a fun time but it's time to give the gray matter in my brain something substantive to linger on. i think that's true. "the waking life" came at a perfect time; i needed to think more.

what i said was true: it did make me scared of death. i'd never really been scared of death because i've always thought of it as just nothing no feeling and no consciousness at all. but what if you really do just descend into your subconscious? and what if you really do suddenly realize that you're dead. dead dead dead never to be alive again.

pinnacle also got me thinking, like when i was telling morgan was singing that song about how parens don't own their children. it's true. what do i own though? material goods are clearly fleeting and i can't ever own another person. tracy chapman says that "all that you have is your soul." does she mean that we can own our souls? because i'm not sure we really can. won't our souls always be slave to our subconcious and unconcious selves? maybe only when we can harmonize our conscious, subconscious, and unconcscious selves will we really own our lives.

danny gave me a plethera of new music. it's officially wonderful!
