Today I haven't learned, just remembered
that feeling, one of them associated with love, but also infatuation, desire, etc.
but that too isn't a bad thing, only a matter of course

Take a shower as often as you can, since you don't know the times when you won't be able to take one for a while.
Showers, hygiene, is good.
Especially for my own sake - me being a Rabbit/Cat and all

I realized, yetserday........ that I...... I am more like him then I ever thought.
The only person who i could ever really associate with, and I am drawn back to him. The familiar sense of myself. Am I turning into him? Or is this a natural evoloution.
I can't tell which way my personality will go. The contradiciton is everywhere.
Maybe I need a garden, too.
Too much free time on my hands...
wasting it
wasting it
but what is there to waste?
ugh
"whatever"

I, myself, have a mentor I look up to.
I lost my dad when I was 17......I felt like I knew him but truly not long enough....when he died I guess so did part of me.....it changed the course of my future....but my mentor has now taught me that as small as I am....I can change the course of the future........

I don't know if admired.....
but someone, or some thing, that I felt familiar with. A certain outlook on life, perhaps.... I was drawn to it, because there was a sense of familiarity that I never felt before. Something I could relate to
But then I tried to move away from it. I didn't want to be defined by it, "him".
Now, though, I realize that.......
It's okay to be like something else.
I can say this now, because I know I am not that person, that thing. It sounds contradictory. But now that I know who and what I am, I can accept this other thing, accept that I am similar to it.
I don't have to fight it, nor do I have to follow it religiously to the T. It is there, and I can say, calmly, that I am similar to it.
The one "person" that I ever felt a sense of brotherhood with
....... a fictional character

I have learned that I
......
That........
No, just this:
A compliment to me: I am like a diamond.
Facets that sparkle, many
And I said
"Diamonds are forever", which is true, in my case.....
ANd that reminds me
Reminds me that I was right when I said
"I am forever"
I am a diamond, aren't I?
It was just a nice complement. It's nice to be considered something rare, though, as we said, my edges will always be rough.
Something about me being smoothed down???
whatever
Only a diamond
can cut a diamond.......

You cannot put a worth on a diamond.
According to my dream journal on 9/17 am, I had a dream where someone was trying to sell a 4 carat diamond ring and knowing I had a diamond myself, asked me what it was worth.....I said I did not know.
Oh.....jewelers put a worth on a diamond by it's perfection dollar-wise but one cannot truly judge it's value....as you judge yourself as a diamond........perhaps the value is priceless.

It's not the size of the diamond......
more so, the shape, how it is cut; how it reflects light
The many facets of a diamond, when cut right, make it most rare, and sparkle off the most light. That is why expensive diamonds look the way they do, because their cut is so flawless that almost all light gets reflected, or refracted.
Thus the sparkle.....

Yesterday, about.....
arond then
I had the biggest breakthrough in philosophical thought ever in my life. I wonder if anyone else has ever thought of this. But then again, I'm sure they have. It's not that f ar off. bu
but it just makes so much amazing sense to me it's unbelieveable.
I hope I can apply it, and build on it
I wonder if I'm charged up enough, though, or if I'm still recovering. I'm not quite over my illness yet...... hmm.......

'Horoscopes" are not what you are, but what you may need to overcome.
They don't define you, but offer gateways to self improvement.

Not a big fan of horoscopes.....they never mention dragons in them...I often read my sign in the newspaper but kinda chuckle at it all. Today is your lucky day....you will meet the lover of your dreams.....etc......always sound like some kinda romance novel.

Hmm............ my personality is shifting here on interference.....
I wonder what this is about. I'm challenging people more, imposing myself more. Sometimes I do sound like an ass, sure. But thereis a fine line between when I have made a few, really stupid posts (like a few in FYM - Mrs. Springsteen's threads, in the very beginning of this shift. But those were regretabble, and not something I like doin) However, lately... I've been imposing my different perspectives uncompromisingly so, and people seem to be reacting to it in different ways.
It's not so much my personality has changed, yet..... I have expanded it.
People have called me a "troll", which is not something I like, because I do not take pleasure in causing discord, etc. And as far as "spamming" in ZC goes..... well, I have a genuine interest in those topics, but I can see if a break from them would be not so bad. But I mean, it'snot like ZC is a hoppin' forum, either, same as this one. So it's easy for me to look like I'm a spammer. But most Interference in those forums has been really slow as of late, with exception to Laz's appearance here, and a few other's.
But back to the main point....
I know I am uncoventional, and I personally like that about myself. But I guess I must, just like in my personality test said, assume some form of suface conformity....
I can't stand that, but I guess I need to soften my edges a little. For the sake of others, apparently. I forget how callous I am sometimes. I really do. Or how different my perspectives are from the general population...... not better or worse, just different.
So that issomething I have learned today.
but there is more.....

The discovery
I realized that she's just a kid. She's a concerlor idealist, and I'm the mastermind. That's our connection. That's why she liked squall so much. That's why she'sso good at senseing. That's why her page looked the way it did. That's why I need to talk to her, so I can tell her what I've learned.
But I've got to watch out..... for that damn hole in my heart.
Dammit..... I hate to say it, but it's true: I care about her way too damn much. And I can't stop, I can only try to avoid it... Damn... and I feel responsible, too, because I know. Because I *know*.
Because that's what I do - I study relentlessly, find answers, seekimprovement, learn, continually learn, draw connections, interpret, relate, improve, seek more answers, seek more informatnion................. etc etc etc........
Because I know
Dammit.... I don't like that sometimes.....
But I shouldn't say that - that's not really right. I'm just being myself,doing what I'm designed to do. "system builder"....
Still, that nagging thought will never leave my brain, and this, this is what kills me:
"What if I found the exact right person, but only too soon?"
I guess, if it's meant to be, then there's nothing I can do to mess it up. But I'm not much one to leave things up to "fate"....
Heh, I guess, though, that that would be in the plans........ That such a thing would be expected of me......
AH! I wonder if just obligated myself into worring more! hahahaha...... oh dear......
anyhow....... I better get some rest, for the moment.......
I don't it to seem like I'm spamming because I think too much. Hah. Because my brain doesn't slow down sometimes... heh heh heh......

Today I learned......
the beginning of.... some dance!
It was a Latin dance
Rumba?
Something like that.
Reminds me of swing dancing, sort of. BUt then again ,we did a lot of stuff in HS. It's pretty good, I enjoy dancing. I;ll like it a lot more once I'm really good at it. I'd say I did pretty well.
And of course, I'd also have to say that I was the .... well, I'll work on my modesty, and say that it was a good group of people, and we had a good time.
Not a bad way to spend an hour.
The instructer is older, but she has a really nice frame on her body, and is good looking for a woman her age. I'm impressed. Maybe I should hang around more dancers, esp when I get to college, yeah?
Apparently, I am a "good leader". I don't really know how someone could be a bad leader, but apparently it makes a big difference.
