the best parts of lonely

[rainshadow]

I guess I broke up with Andrew today. It is strange, actually, feeling at once sorrowful and free and at peace. We laughed and we-- okay, I--- cried. We apologized and wounded and explained and healed. I don't think it's the normal way to break up with someone, parting with fragile-yet-real smiles, but I don't think normalcy's a virtue either

Change. Sometimes not good or bad, sometimes both. But still a heavy impact on our lives. Emotion usually comes at some point... for me when it's dark and I'm alone and it can run freely down the windows into the ground like rain. Usually it's just the sweet taste of an experience.

This makes me smile.

There's something great about your icon.

you are aware of the most excellent comic, http://xkcd.com/

?

I'm not entirely sure if I know who you are, though if you like this excellent lass Anna than I'm sure you would be worth knowing.

No, I was not aware. My eyes have been opened and I now have something else to do when avoiding work.

Thank you.

But, right now anyway, I think things are good. Fragile, and strange, but good.

Hang on to that, doll. Don't dwell too hard on things, be glad for the lessons learned, the friendship saved, and let the fragile good float you for a little while. When you touch ground again, you'll likely find it's become a rather solid good instead.

Thank you.
