flowers never bend with the rainfall.

i was just reading over an old old livejournal of mine from like 2004, and it brought me to the unsettling realization that my life keeps repeating myself. while i'd like to think that i've learned a thing or two along the way, i'm struggling with the same questions that i struggled with four years ago. i'll probably still struggle with them in the years to come...

i had totally deep and completely different conversations with two people today, and they both coincidentally came to the same conclusion that i belong in the romantic era. i knew in school that i always found myself attracted to poets and artists from that era, but i never fully delved into what romanticism really means. it's true. i am full of dreams and ideals and constantly wanting a life that's bigger than life. i'm searching for passion and won't settle for anything less than passion, even if it comes with pain. both people said that they shared those same ideals. it was just strange that that same observation was drawn on two occassions today from such different contexts. i wish i wasn't that way, but i guess that statement changes with the day.

i need to shut my brain off......big deal, nothing matters.

everyone's getting cancer.......
