Big Fish

Emotionally, I’m pretty fucked up right about now. I imagine this might be a tad bit like PMS, except that I don’t find myself hating the entire male species when my mood swings a certain way.

I suppose in all honesty, my emotions aren’t the only things that are fucked up. A few minutes ago I was slapped with a bit of divine internal revelation (or something). I realized why I hate life, and my life in particular.

Though other people or circumstances may be culpable in the eyes of some when it comes to my state of being, I really only have myself to blame. I’ve always been a hard worker, but I’ve never really done anything with a purpose or a goal. The few things in my life that I’ve actually hoped for turned out opposite of the way that I thought they would. This was proof that real-life and fairy-tales were vastly different.

To make things really short though, the pain of being let down is what has, and does, keep me from hoping in anything. Although I can hear a faint echo of who I was as a kid when I had all sorts of ideas and ambitions and still believed anything is possible…those echo’s are as hollow and empty as the chocolate Easter Bunny’s that kids get in their baskets.

I just got done watching the movie Big Fish. I don’t know why it’s affected me the way that it has. All I can really think of is to blame it on my hormonalness (or whatever the hell it is).

I wish that I could actually hope that life will someday get better.
I wish that I could actually believe that it’s really possible.
I wish there was a way out from under all the things I constantly carry with me.
I wish I could get through life without needing escapes.
I wish my wishes would come true.
I wish that somehow I could get out everything that’s inside me.
I wish I wouldn’t cry, because I have to pee really bad and don’t want to pass anyone in the hallway and have them ask questions.
I wish everything that hurt, and all the black clouds in my mind, would find somewhere else to go.
Then again, wishing really is kind of pointless.

What happens if you stop evading it and deal with it? Just a question. I’ve just now understood the life lesson inherent in that. Do you avoid a lot? Do you cope? Do you have anyone you can talk to face to face about that which you are cryptic about here? *hugs*I know it doesn’t help or hurt at all but I do read every entry. Wanted you to know that. 🙂

…i’ve been let down many times. Yet I still have hope and wishes. I dunno why. But, I do. Um life’s hard..it sucks…I will ditto what the person before me just told you…and then I will also have to say that you’re still young…and well you still have time to make all your wishes or most come true..and you’ll find the one…maybe…oh gosh..I’m telling you what all my friends tell me..scary.

Big Fish made me cry! Someone said it was a happy movie…it just made me feel sad in a way. I can’t really describe how it made me feel.

Set some reasonable goals for yourself and meet them. Small things you’ve been meaning to do but never seem to get to them. Take one or two, set a goal, meet it. Life won’t seem to let you down so much. You have to be the future you want. You can do it. Meanwhile, I am sorry you are in pain. I’ve been there.

You need to turn your wishes into prayers and maybe they will come true. In Christs love and mine. Amber
