“during a famine, children are the most ravenous, violent humans.”
i ruined my chance at starting over from nothing. nearly a year ago, i arrived here with only a carload of belongings. nearly a year later, i am being suffocated by all these things.

“The media phenomenon called age compression whereby the young are encouraged to act older and elders to act younger, encouraged by marketing ploys aimed to boost chances that both young and old will reach out to buy something to accomplish this task or to simply make themselves feel better since their self-esteem has been undermined.”
wow.
is there anything that is important enough for me not to half-ass?

why?

sometimes i cant read blogs because i get so worked up by the commentary that i just cannot focus on anything else. the non-immediate nature keeps me from expressing my own opinion in real time to the other contributors. i think this is the thing i dislike most about the situation. i am usually driven to merely reposting the blog entry accompanied by a quick line about what i think. its not...

It’s tough to keep your feelings in perspective now for you may be blindly optimistic one moment and quite fearful the next. The intense Scorpio Full Moon in your 11th House of Long-Term Goals evokes your certainty, whether the pendulum is swinging toward the positive or negative side of the cycle.

You prefer to have your feet on stable ground, but now you might need to get used to standing on shifting sands instead. Maintaining balance could take up all your time, for it seems like everything is in a state of flux. Forget about building anything permanent now.
