Music That Sings to Soothe the Soul
There's something about church songs that make me feel at ease. Even though I'm not a believer, even though I go to temples more often than churches, and even though I've known for a long time that I might as well declare myself an atheist (and I did! in jr.high!)...there's something about a religious song that makes me feel calm. It could just be ( Read more... ) -
Lady Chatterley's Lover is masculine and sensous, but what about her husband?
Was it his fault she didn't care about bodily touch before their marriage? Was it his fault that she suddenly became sexually deviant ( Read more... ) -
Where's my wonderland?
It's been two years since I went to the temple and got a "good" card stating that there is a rainbow after hardships, and a treasure at the bottom of it. What it didn't state was how long the hardship period was. I don't even understand the writing and had a monk interpret it for me. He blew me away and said I don't really have anything to worry ( Read more... ) -
And you could be my SANCTUARY if only you would try.
Recently (more than usual) I feel neglected, or perhaps more like dismissed. It's like everyone around me is just making decisions that affect me, that concern me, and that really impacts my environment without even asking me what do you think? And this is very disconcerting because I feel that I do my best to always ask other people what they ( Read more... ) -
And if it were just you and me our love could last eternally...
So the positive thing about seeing a counselor is that she clarified that regardless of whether there is a grace period I can still graduate by the end of summer. The question is whether I have to attend my own institution or a community college (the latter would not have a grace period but the price is four times cheaper ( Read more... ) -
And I looked at them, thought of us, and feared for them.
You ruined my morning.
You ruin my day.
I'd rather disappear MYSELF than let you ruin any more of my time. -

Take out rational thought and all that is left is a vessel of tears that flow like the river Styx with a high price to purgatory. -

"My heart has made its mind up / And I'm afraid it's you. / Whatever you've got lined up, "
"My heart has made its mind up."I used to really like hypnosis tapes. I'm poor at relaxing...You could put me in a dark room, give me a massage and a heat pack to my sore muscles and I still wouldn't know if I can truly relax. Relaxation comes with a price I can't afford to pay, you see. In order to relax I would have to let my guard down and I'm ( Read more... ) -

I can see the advantage of having multiple personalities. It's like being a turtle in its shell, hiding when its convenient--hiding when one must. But because in this social world it's difficult to just "hide" with one's responsibilities and social obligations (remember work? school?) to have a stronger personality just come out and take over must ( Read more... )
