Maybe I'll find it...one day.
“I’m homesick all the time … I just don’t know where home is. There’s this promise of happiness out there. I know it. I even feel it sometimes. But it’s like chasing the moon. Just when I think I have it, it disappears into the horizon.”
— Sarah Addison Allen
And then it's even more exhausting trying to be an asshole when you know that you still will always care! Gah!
I always care and I’m tired now.
Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of understanding.

I'm not gonna lie.... I do feel this. From when I was kid, I'd always mimic the MCs in anime and cartoons. I personally loved the timeskips because for me, it was like I'm growing and learning along with them, showing off my newly acquired skills and feeling like others as well as myself could see those changes. But now... I'm moving faster than them... too fast but also too slow. There's now a disconnect in what I watch and its a quiet heartbreak that I've aged past them... Damn.
the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.
How I think my day is going versus how its really going...
the transition im crying

It might be that you've unknowingly changed to a different color along with the surrounding scenery."

I buried the hatchet, but still find myself occasionally running my fingers over the edge as a reminder not to get close to you anymore...
