"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next."
--Gilda Radner

in other news, i have lots of dark-ish thoughts on my mind right now, for no good reason...musings about trust, control, hidden things...ask me and i may tell you.

sorry to have missed you this evening. somedays i don't feel like getting going so i know the feeling. related to the ambiguous thoughts you shared, often a certain mood besets us and it forces us to consider the dark corners of our soul. it could be offset by blissful delusion or, a more hopeful consideration, the truth. but without a doubt, the fact remains that you would not have had time to consider the musings that have risen had you not been alone. not good or bad, just how it would have been.

because now we're left with a choice: allow the darkness to feed off itself and thrive in self-perpetuating misery or realize darkness is death and embrace the light. Or worse, we could just "let it pass" and do absolutely nothing in hopes it doesn't come up again.

where do you draw the line between healthy, honest lamenting and morbid, unedifying introspection? is it the issue that makes it a good reason or is their always a general principle in extirpating false truth and choosing, through accepting, the creation of the positive picture? what about trust. what about surrender. what about control. what about letting go. what about hidden things.

it's the very late hours of the night so perhaps i'm not coming off too clearly. at any rate, if it's worth anything, I hope you got the rest you needed. but let's hang out next time! i hope there are many opportunities in the future for you to be able to reconcile what you might initially believe to be contrary to what you believe in your heart of hearts and see it through for all that it's worth.

your friend,
samuel
