Today I am weary. It's not easy! Rewarding, definitely. But not easy. Today was hard. My night-vision's been spoiled and I gashed my toe on a treacherous stone.

I wake and something is amiss
The world is different in my sight
Since last I laid my head to rest
I’ve mixed my left side with my right

Reversal is accompanied
by new contours I can’t ignore;
Shadows where they ought not to be
and Light where there was none before.

When left is right and right is wrong,
what I thought true has truly changed.
And now the darkness’ crooning song
I know to be a wail of pain.

I journey through the world I knew
And reckon with my sanity
My state of mind has been made new
From old perceptions I am free

I gaze upon my looking glass
that plane dividing false from true
and with your help it comes to pass
Instead of me I just see You.

This isn't easy. And I should thank God for the people that are there for me, to love me and help me grow. For the people who take me in and treat me like their son (sometimes quite literally,) or push me higher, or even just open up about their lives so I can learn from them.

For the sunlight.

I like it. Like a renewal of mind. *thumbs up*

re: Yeah but homie you see that language is inherently negative. "Complex" or "exciting" is one thing..."dramatic" is laced in negativity and...man, disdain. That isn't okay, especially when it's about choices someone has made that have made that person happy. You gotta be genuinely happy for people, bro, even if they're not living your type of life.

Nice!
I'm sorry this isn't so much a comment to this entry as it is a comment on your current layout. I love the clever leaf-changing-color trick! I feel lame for not having designed anything in a while, but I just don't get into it as much as I used to. It would probably help if I spent more time on my computer, juices flowing, seeing images and getting ideas.
I don't get very inspired anymore. Mediocrity consumes much of my life right now.

(Whoa! I know I'm up too late because I get deep with comments when I get tired. Less gets filtered and more just flows from whatever my mind is thinking about. Like this parenthesis comment.)

re: Zanzi put it very well..."But if a guy is interested it is hard to hold him off that long. " Your ideas behind dating and mine are pretty different, but her statement describes my issue to a T.
