((Private Post: Locked to Bram, Frankie, Minnie, and Lettie)) Can you even look me in the eye?

I've spent a long time being angry. And I've been thinking a lot about why I'm angry and who I'm actually angry at for everything. And I'm angry at our government for what they're doing to their people. And I'm angry at my parents for encouraging me to go in the Marines instead of taking a hockey scholarship. I'm angry at a lot of other people for ( Read more... )

Chocolate chip pancakes in 1 hour and 45 minutes after my class. Meet me outside Tate or I'm telling Whit.

I'll be there. Have your bib on.

Sometimes I wish we could just go back to how things used to be. When life was easy and all I had to worry about was you and Whit reading my diary to the high school cafeteria like he always threatened to do. Back before you were broken in ways I can't see or fix.

Okay, so agreed: You don't get to hide. Actually, you would have a hard time doing that anyway because our grade still depends on co-operation, and also, I left Thor in your room somewhere.

Thor is nesting in my closet canoodling with Shirley. And yes, it does! But we can co-operate over the phone or online, not necessarily in person and in public. So make me meet you in the library or at a coffee shop or in the middle of the mall. Something. Also, you should try and come with me and Lettie to buy me clothes. Seems she needs some, too.

I think it's rare to find circumstance in which someone simply can't take responsibility at least in part, for their own mental well being. Even if doing so is merely the act of seeking help, and then acting in the best interest of what is learned as a result.

I would be careful though, of insisting that you are "responsible" for your reactions. I mean you are responsible for dealing with them but there's a certain spectrum in which it's okay to be hurt and it's okay to be angry. I think you were the one who mentioned to me that you were tired of being told that it wasn't okay to be angry...and it is.

I could probably say more, and better, but I'm not very good at the written.

I still think I'm okay and within my rights to be angry. I guess more than anything, I was saying it's not okay to JUST be angry. You know? I'm limiting myself a whole lot if I don't acknowledge happy and playful as well as depressed and hurt.

fuschia_drowns April 18 2009, 07:43:13 UTC

Well, you know.

Anytime you'd like to play with me, Jack.

Zanmi- I am honored that you will tell me such things. I will not insult you by claiming to understand- I have not been, as you have been, in batay, at war, so you come to me from a place I cannot see.

I will help you, though. You have been good to me as a room-mate, as a friend; I will do my best to be good to you, too.
