I did not celebrate it again. I did what I always do on holidays - I go to work. On my way home I saw early fireworks in the sky. Family were spending time together, enjoying the holiday. I was thinking of me like I never belong, or I am never a part of something social or family related. I am an introvert with social anxiety. It's beyond my comprehension, acceptance and ability. I want to belong, but when I am trying. It turns out to be so clumsy and awkward, that I am self embarrassed and guilty and disgraced. I am broken and never fixed. I was lost once and I never found myself again. Self-void. Not sad, just supid. I am Talentless Mrs Ripley. I am a mess I need five lives to fix it.
Writing this short paragraph I've just realized I can't describe in words what I want to say. I simply can't get it out of my head and express myself in words. All the frustration, fears, despair, anxiety, emotional pain stay in my head, inside of me. It slowly corrupts me, like an erosion. I walk with this dark inside of me, pretend to be okay, trying to live my life and do my best.
I do only half of my capacity but I love to think I do my best. Reality does not check in. As a result I did not accomplish what I had planned. I was sad for a moment, but I did not have more time for it. So I lied to myself and them. I did not actually lie, I just did not tell them the truth. There are no victims in my lie.
My Iron Lungs hurt and I coincidentally watch Dark Season Two. They say I work in the court now, but I am anxious instead of happy. They pay me to feel better, but It was Placebo. I am a perfect patient. It does not matter, because It was originally about new dishwasher. Skincare does not work either. I can see the aging.
But I am still here.
don't watch the news. don't read the news. cruel people dominate the world and create evil, other suffer obediently or watch the injustice helplessly. Power is expressed in war.
I don't have thoughts in my head; only fears and negative emotions. i react to anything happening around me like an amoeba to granules of salt - I try to escape. it's not good. right now all i have is consequences of my previous actions and non-actions. I am looking back at 10 years of life. Good morning, Mr Lexapro, How are you? I am good, thanks.
fire ants, high prices, low income, lack of free time, alcohol self treatment, sleep deprivation. there is a place 28.0836° N, 80.6081° W. I like to go every weekend. there is calm, including inner calm.
I've started a new chapter of my life. Not an optimistic beginning. 1 hour in traffic on my way home, grunge radio and could-have-been way of thinking. Life is a shitpie, you just don't know what it's made of until told. It could have been worse if I had not changed it. Maybe It's a rough start and later on I will get accustomed to the taste. I need an eternity to improve my current situation. I need anti-depressants without side effects. I need a healthy wine. I need courage and wisdom.
RIP, Marie. I was a faithful fan of your work. Your voice was so expressive, sweet and soft. Roxette was my most favorite band during my teenage years. So many good memories... So sad to say good bye to you. Thank you for music!
This is my 11th 4th of July. I don't celebrate it like everybody else does. I have work emergency to take care of instead. What special about this Independence is that I am finally the citizen of this County. I am very proud of it. I am free and I live for it. It was a long journey and it is worth it.
Rest In Peace, Dolores O'Riordan. Your songs and incredible voice will be with me for the rest of my days. It's so sad to say good bye to icons of my youth.
Herbert Greenleaf: You know, people always say that you can't choose your parents, but you can't choose your children...
I have never thought before that I was a bad son... son to be ashamed of. It was not my fault, not my parents fault either. Just mean circumstances of life, wrong place and time. we are victims of it. I ruined my parents dreams. I am nothing of what they have been expecting. it's painful, disappointing and viciously ironic. My dad is a proud family man, traditional values, very skillful craftsman and blue-collar. It's painful to realize for him that his only son is his opposite: awkward and clumsy dork, underachiever and feminine wimp. I am a black sheep, unable to continue the family name. I am nothing he could be proud of. It hurt his feelings, but I did not understand that back then. I was in constant conflict with him, blaming him for being unsupportive. I never looked at our toxic relationship from his point of view. I was selfish and ungrateful. I feel sorry about it. I wish I were a better son. I wish I could see things the way I can see them now. I was wrong.
There is a question that does not leave me alone for years. Why did it all happen to me? I am not who I was born to be. Under the pressure of bullying and emotional abuse I became someone else. I became me - the failure from the mirror! It's too late to go back to previous settings and impossible to be healed. I feel incomplete and damaged. I got so traumatized that I am lost in my own personality. I am in hiding and in denying, trying to be some one else, always holding myself and avoiding endeavors I can succeed and master. I don't have the answer, I just feel miserable and worthless of myself.
Anxiety. Avoidance. Failure. Dissatisfaction.

My 8th Independence is not worth mentioning. It is not associated with anything. I don't remember how I spent the day. The day had nothing to stay in my memory. My existence is going on. I faded out. No dreams, no plans and no me.
