"It is because everyone under Heaven recognizes beauty as beauty, that the idea of ugliness exists. And equally, if everyone recognized virtue as virtue, this would only create fresh conceptions of wickedness.
For truly Being and non-Being grow out of one another."

the night before my college graduation. it's fitting in sort of a nauseating way that I should spend it highly caffeinated, sitting with my laptop at All Saints, slogging through philosophy papers.
**I just discovered a hidden unlockable section on Nietzsche in my 3rd take-home assignment, adding 4 extra pages onto this paper. god, this is exciting.**
I hear you. absolutely. 6:00 in the morning always makes me want to sever all ties and make a new life on a grassy desert mountain three thousand miles away.
though how this differs from any other time of the day, I do not know.
when i graduated i was terrified that they'd come back and take the diploma away, like "oh sorry ms. annah, but you don't really deserve this and you need 30 more credit hours of math and it's laughable that you really thought you were done here." that may be why i hide my degree in a storage space, so they can't come take it away.
no matter, i'm not really using the blasted thing.
congratulations!
whew. that last, perennially depressing entry has been at the top of this journal long enough, I think. it's time for an entry that is fine and good. an entry that shines like a new penny.
wow, i know the exact feeling you're talking about. it happens most for me when i have dreams involving large bodies of water, either muddy and swift or still and really cold. so that's weird and fitting that the iceberg picture inspires it as well. this might need more examination. shifty and chirpy, kind of like a high-pitched vibrating dread. huh. now i'll be thinking about this all night at work.
I only need love
it's supposed to fit me like a glove.
but you left me behind
I'm empty like an orange rind.
I always just put my emotions on a shelf
trying not to be myself
but all it ever brought me was pain.
it's hard... Read More
