I think it's really interesting how reality and perception can have such a gulf between them. How one assumes that they would know someone (always a dangerous assumption), and then have something which completely shatters that illusion.
How astonishing the realization (there, I used a Z) that something which crushes you can be the very thing to set you back on the road you strayed away from. You rationalize and you rationalize. You are aware that people present different sides of themselves to different kinds of people; we go to different people to fulfill our different needs and we may choose to omit or edit or editorialize different aspects of ourselves. These are realities we can deal with, in time perhaps.
Faced with a more pleasurable illusion in the face of painful reality, which would you choose to hold? Would you believe a lie or an editorialized truth even when it makes you smile? Or would you question what you think you know and choose to believe what you see instead of what you feel?
Sure, knowledge may be power. But ignorance is bliss.
I really have to go to sleep now. In the immortal words of my now absent american friends, "There's nothing you can do about it so don't think about it and be happy."
Yeah, just get me drunk and high and we'll be a-okay. pfft.
Funny too, how there's a bright side to everything.
OIII. You need to WORK tomorrow so get your ass into bed, missy.
