“He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster.. [BR] and when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.”

“I found myself in life so suddenly - where I least expected it… And everything around me kept running. Things and men kept running, running - until I too started running like crazy. But it seems I overdid it.”
— Odysseus Elytis, tr. by Athan Anagnostopoulos, from Maria Nephele: A Poem in Two Voices; “The Presence”
I will not have you without the darkness that hides within you. I will not let you have me without the madness that makes me. If our demons cannot dance, neither can we.

Really? That's the excuse I'm going to be thrown? It just hit me that I've been dealing with a covert narcissistic parent. They are an angel outside the house with everyone, so everyone loves them. But there's so much manipulation and toxicity occurring at home, no one would know that. It's gone so far that they have turned my sibling against me. My next post will talk about what happened....
I know I'm not flawless or an angel, because I'm a human, but atleast I own up to it unlike those that say they are blood related.
I do my best thinking at night when everyone else is sleeping. No interruptions. No noise. I like the feeling of being awake when no one else is.

Do not bring people into your life who weigh you down. And trust your instincts. Good relationships feel good. They feel right. They don’t hurt.

“I want to learn from myself, want to be my student, want to get to know myself.”
