Dude that was a really neat one to read. Now I want to ask about your snowflakes because it actually sounds pretty cool to me...

[tanpopomofo]

It started as a bored thing. I do snowflakes at Christmas time anyway. Then, one day I wrote out this big long wishlist for the world. Just stickmen and choppy little sentences like a 9 year old would write. I then thought that if anyone saw it they'd think I was crazy. (lol) I cut it all up and threw it away. But I noticed, and maybe this is the crazy part, I felt this pressure lift off me as I gathered these tiny scraps of paper.

These little things that only God and I had seen whole.

Damn, that's really cool! I like that idea, and that last sentence was really beautiful...it touched me.

I don't really talk too often about how I pray. It's kinda nice to not be thought insane.

I hope it touched you appropriately.

[lady_of_entropy]

Heh heh yes it touched me in an appropriate manner. I don't have to call an adult.

I think you'd be surprised at the stuff I don't think is unusual. I also don't think you're crazy, even though I know you described yourself that way. You're you, and the "weird" things you do are what makes you the person I and others love. I'm not gonna go around willfully ignoring all the shit you have to deal with and fight with, of course, but to me I don't perceive the things you like to do as insane.

(I'm no doubt being too serious, but if you're worried about people thinking of you that way, well...I don't.)

Thanks. I think I'm a little harder on myself than anyone else could even try to be.

And you're not being too serious. I tend to pretend stuff doesn't exist til it's right at my throat. I love the people that can handle my snowflakes without asking if I'm still on my meds... Which I am.
