I've gotten back into blogging because lately I just feel the need to write, about something, anything. I need the ability to dump some of the crap going on in my hyperactive brain. Right now is an especially bad time for me because things are changing. I only have so much energy to deal with life and my crazy. The overflow is short circuiting my brain and making me behave oddly.
I am driving everyone nuts, in other words.
My main comfort right now is my people, but I don't have many of them and, besides, my people largely consist of cynical types which fuel my own paranoia (it's not paranoia if it's true.) That has never bothered me before because I am one of those cynical folks (practical, please) but now I suppose I feel the need to change? Actually, that's not completely true; I've met someone who isn't completely cynical who doesn't strike me as deluded and that makes me wistful. It's not something that I can have but it's something that I want...maybe..kinda..sorta. If it doesn't make me less effective in life, which it probably would...maybe...kinda...sorta? It doesn't help that I don't really understand why/how this person came to be that way and I hate not understanding people.
Not that I'm an unhappy person. I don't know where the happiness comes from but I am naturally happy. Cynical as hell but still happy. A kind of nihilism allows me to dance in the light of all my burning bridges, or something. Happy and being pissed off. Both states of being are as natural to me as day and night and l have always been content with that.
I now feel conflicted because, on one hand, I hate to think I've been doing it wrong, but on the other, I want to live the best way I can (for the given definition of the word "best.") I am also extremely suspicious of myself and these new ideas. Perhaps, they wouldn't improve my life, maybe I am just being stupid and romantic, or maybe I just think that because I am mentally lazy/afraid to change.
Either way, it has put everything into stark contrast: what I believe v.s. what they believe, v.s. what's real and what isn't. I've been obsessing about it and needed a place to put it all, so here.
P.S. I'm sure I'll one day look back on this post and think that I was stupid either way, so if you're ahead of me already, kudos. lol.
