"moving on"...
"It's impossible to judge the size of the internal injury by the size of the external wound."
-Salman Rushdie, paraphrased
It's not constructive of me to try to prove my misery, or to try to verbalize the spreading chancres peppering my attempts at enthusiasm and self-improvement. It solves nothing to air my fears that I've passed some internal point of no return that I never knew existed and still don't understand in the slightest. It's masturbatory and pointless to try to describe the panic I'm trying to supress, and self-aggrandizing to talk about how my attempts to change myself, upon being partially realized, have revealed themselves as nonsensical fantasies, childish, robotic, and sad.
Still, I'm going to post this.
