With a new attitude anything can change....
Oh Lord, I knew this was going to happen. I've sunken back into the same ol' depressingly stale and limiting routine. I hate it. Going to bed knowing I have to wake up and go to work at Sears lays really heavy on my chest. The away from home vacation buzz is quickly fading, and I have to move quickly before I sink totally back into my funk.

What's good, and what's keeping me from going down is the memory of that feeling. The feeling of being able to breathe, and be happy, and be myself. To be confident. GOD it's an amazing feeling and I want it back. I can barely remember what it feels like. I'm guessing within the next couple of days I will no longer feel it, and will begin to struggle with why I liked that feeling so much. Soon after, I will forget it all together. I'm going to fight it, but it's SO hard.

That's weird, isn't it? The fact that I know how amazingly happy I was before. How I was so near fearless and was the supreme version of myself.... yet I'm doing all I can to hold myself back from that now. I have to force myself to work on my portfolio. When I do, I hit block after creative block. It makes me sad and frustrated. Which makes me want to quit. The crazy thing? I think it's subconscious. I know I'm out of creative practice, but I really think that with my history that this isn't just a bit of bad luck.

But I also am excited for the fight. I can feel the resistance building in me everyday to take the easy way out. I can feel myself WANTING to be miserable for ever. But I've seen the light at the end of the tunnel. I KNOW how good things can get for me. I have to push my fears aside, because not too long ago, I DID have faith in myself. I need to remember that. I have to. If I don't..... let's say, things will never change. And I can't have that.

You should really at least do a trial run of living in Texas. Like, take a leave of absence from your work, don't move your stuff but live in Texas and stuff like you would if you were living there, if it works out go back home get your stuff, quit your job and move to Texas - if not, go back home and live your life like you normally do.

You can tell that I'm looking out for your well being because I know that if you did that, I wouldn't talk to you much but I think you deserve this change. Get away from everything that is dragging you down.

I wish I could afford that, but I have no money :(

I appreciate it :) Don't worry, even if I didn't have a computer for a while, I would write!!

:( Shitty. Well, good luck anyway! If you want something enough it'll happen.
