Becoming Visible
Journal Entry: Fri May 30, 2008, 4:01 PM
"This is one of life's realities and truths: you can't always have said or done the right thing, can't always have been there there for someone or had them be there for you. There will always have been actions which never took place, emotions which weren't quite articulated- because past presents look different with this harsh light of retrospect shining up through them. Life isn't about perfection, but about doing what you can at the time. The way things were was the way they had to be. You have to trust your instincts and forget. The past will always point fingers. That's what it's for.
Problems don't go away immediately, or sometimes even at all; imperfections and sadness are the price you pay for being alive. They can be a high price, and there are times when life seems like a struggle where the only reward you get for hanging on is the chance to struggle some more. It's a heavy toll. But it's a fine ride, and sometimes you get to see the sea."

Well, I could potentially make one, that fasted with clippy things or something, so that you could sample that... Ripping Experience*... without actually damaging said garment...
