A Lesser Beauty: A Dissertation on Love

What I should have done was wait. I should’ve waited, kept working for the literary agent, re-taken the GREs with more focus, and written a new writing sample that adequately addressed my graduate focus: dystopias and existentialism. But what we should do and what we end up doing, those are hardly ever the same thing. Instead I dove into a graduate ( Read more... )

Things will get better. (Everything will be okay, eventually). This has been my mantra for the past two years, even when it's got so bad I don't want to admit what happened to anyone, least of all, myself; and it will continue to be so.

Good luck with the move, stay safe, keep breathing fresh air, and we bitches will keep the hearth warm 'til you return.

I am tired right now but I need to answer to this.

For that, I still cannot thank you enough ( ... )

When you stand still, solid ground under the bare soles of your feet and spread your arms... do you turn you palms to the sky?

Ok, I feel a bit shy to comment since I'm probably not supposed to be reading this, (we watch each other on your versacefrolic account, not here) but I guess the fact that this is a public entry does justify me some for passing by and poking my nose into what's probably definitely not my business. It's probably no big deal but I tend to be kinda shy like this. A bit like I'm uninvited, you know? I actually never watch anyone first because of this. It's kind of lame, I know. Sorry ( ... )
