Gosh, I've just spent the last ten minutes scrolling through old journal entries. I think 98% of my journal is sadness, anger, depression, anxiety, complaining, discontentment, etc. When did I become such a miserable, old, codger? When I die, if people read my journal, they are likely to believe there was never a happy, magical moment in my life

I remember ages ago reading an interview with Trent Reznor, and he said he's not a particularly depressed or angry person, it's just that it's when he's feeling depressed, angry, sad, etc. that he tends to feel inspired to write and create music. I don't know why that's stuck with me all this time. I guess it just shows you only know one aspect of a person by their writing, by their art in general.
