As for right now, I’m lost. A map, any map, would be greatly appreciated. I’m not the first lost person to feel this way. Lost people just want a way out; they’ll follow any foolish trail.

Lost people are different. They will drive around in the same circle over and over rather than try a new path. Their fear of getting more lost paralysed them into staying lost in the area that’s just become familiar. It supersedes their ability to chart a new course. They circle and backtrack and stay comfortably lost because it’s less scary than seeing something different than what’s presently in front of them.

I’ve thought for a long time that we were going to end up together, so I didn’t really care so much about the when of it. Now, though, the long road is starting to seem like the infinite road.

If it were going to happen, it would have already happened. (Admittedly, even while I’m thinking this, I’m hoping it’s not true. It’s too simplistic, and when you apply the statement to almost any situation, frankly, it doesn’t hold up. I mean, what does its not having happened yet have to do with preventing it from happening in the future? Nothing! Is it a predictor of things to come? Who knows! I don’t want the statement to be true, of course. It’s just true for now. That gets my hopes up, which just lets me down, so I need to stick with this thinking—you see.)

It’s hard not to see things as beginnings and endings. When someone dies, you want to mark time before or after… but time is time. It’s a continuous motion, and we divide it into increments to pretend to have some control over it. To make it neat and manageable.

I’m one of those people who other people like but never remember.

I am starting to buy into it, into the anti-female propaganda disguised as romance.

Second chances do come your way. Like trains, they arrive and depart regularly. Recognizing the ones that matter is the trick.

All of the things in my life that worked suddenly seemed broken. So I abandoned my former life. Truth be told? It was an emergency escape hatch that released me from a job that had kidnapped my personal life, and got me out of a relationship I was too afraid to engage in.
