little red wagon

Just like that. From a hundred miles an hour to asleep in a nanosecond. I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane.

Sometimes I take myself too seriously to ever be serious when in a relationship. And the only relationship I can recall where I was indeed serious, I completely lost myself. I don’t know if I am willing to let myself and my pride be stepped on like that ever again. But then again, I did some stabbings too. maybe I deserve this emotional blockage I am having.

I like drinking coffee alone and reading alone. I like riding the bus alone and walking home alone. It gives me time to think and set my mind free. I like eating alone and listening to music alone. But when I see a mother with her child, a girl with her lover, or a friend laughing with their best friend, I realize that even though I like being alone, I don’t fancy being lonely. The sky is beautiful, but the people are sad. I just need someone who won’t run away.

‎Curvy women are real women. Skinny women are real women. Women who have had boob jobs or lip enhancements or liposuction are still real women. Size 0 may make no sense mathematically, but a woman who wears that size is as real as the one who wears a size 16. What makes us “real” people is not the shape of our flesh but our basic humanity. And we lose our humanity when we judge – not when we lose weight, gain weight, or make the intensely personal decision to undergo cosmetic surgery.

I will always be Joel. Sometimes, you just say “Okay”. You don’t take someone for the good, you take someone for the whole package. The good and bad create the person, and you take the person. 

Okayy.

Nicely put.

Reblogging for the above comment. Well put.

Weird, this exact scene was mentioned in my Interpersonal Communications book.

So there I was on the internet, and drinking my tea, got a notification - a friend had posted on my wall and i see a birthday wish. Thinking really hard for a second and realised “Hey, its my birthday!!!” Oh yay! Another reason to go out and drink with friends - 21 years on this earth and I have accepted my perpetual state of being lost in my thoughts and of the world around me. (Let the alcohol settle in and I will become the smartass all over again.).

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.

I have wanted to kill myself a hundred times, but somehow I am still in love with life. This ridiculous weakness is perhaps one of our most melancholy propensities; for is there anything more stupid than to be eager to go on carrying a burden which one would gladly throw away, to loathe one’s very being and yet to hold fast, to fondle the snake that devours us until it has eaten our hearts away?
