 "I wanted to feel agitated love and connection for someone who could mirror it back to me. The expression was all I wanted. Not dating, not commitment, not a promise. Only a response in kind." ...  "I didn’t think I could do it anymore, walk a man through helping me justify my wanting him or becoming bound to him. I couldn’t tell him how to be an emotional peer to me. His effort couldn’t only come in the form of a tepid response to my initiations.  Or so I told myself. But then I looked at all the strength in my desire. The power in it. My desire was bottomless, so my energy was bottomless. I was inexhaustible no matter how tired I felt. I had a tremendous capacity to persist. And maybe I was only chasing the pain of dissatisfaction but I would rather chase than rest." -Charlotte Shane

I dream too much, work too little.

Relationships are hard and scary. I don't think I'm really the greatest friend. I get scared to reach out to people. I feel like it's not worth it. I think people hate me. For some reason. I know it's not true. But yknow it's a barrier.

It's hard not to want people's approval, but I'm feeling prickly lately and aggressively detached from people's opinions of me. I finally found myself again and self preservation is most important.

I want to find the right people. I want to feel safe being vulnerable again, I want to heal. And I know life will be different now, because struggle changes you, and the lessons learned are heavy, but valuable.

I guess this is just to say, here I am, and here is where I think I am going.

I would like to come to a point where I stop seeing my life as a struggle. I imagine this will be contingent on a variety of internal and external factors.

It's winter, I'm hiding in my room, my mind is buzzing, the days are slipping past as I dream. I feel like so much is going on but it doesn't look that way from the outside.

Much of our day we are pushed around by unhelpful habits such as being distracted or disconnected, holding on too long when circumstances have already changed, or not being wholehearted in pursuing an opportunity. Meditation can open us to alternative responses such as focus, awareness, and productive questioning and that leads to more fulfillment and better work.

The willingness to not bypass illusion is very important. We come to nirvana by way of samsara. We come to see the true nature of things by seeing through the illusory nature of things. We don’t come to nirvana by avoiding samsara. We don’t come to clarity by avoiding confusion.

Pro-tip: don’t argue with sex workers about the sex industry. Our lives are not for your hypothetical fantasy where you can assert your out-of-context moral superiority complex.
