my eyes want to close
my head wants to sleep
my heart wants to fly
into a world of peace
let me feel calm
let me have love
let me escape
into the world I dream of
My thoughts need repair
My mind needs truth
My soul needs to rush
into my world of you

Thanks, T. I can always count on you to say something kind to me. 🙂 Sort of struggling to keep the good feelings today… I hate when there’s no particular reason for the downturn…

I wish that worked for me… I keep trying but… I don’t know… something is wrong. I was so hopeful all my ‘stuff’ was finally right… now I don’t know. And I don’t want to start over AGAIN… and it feels like I’m jinxed. And I wrote a post about this but I don’t think I should post it… And I’m totally rambling now…

Maybe you should go ahead and post it? Someone reading may be able to give some wiser words or actual advice. Whatever you do, just keep trying. Does writing it out help at all? Ya’ know, kinda cathartic, let you release it, even if only a little?

I guess maybe writing it helps. I think I’m afraid, though, that talking about it too much might make me feel worse. I’m not sure… I think what I want most right now is to get it all out of my head completely. It’s not working… but that’s what I’m trying to do…!

I certainly wish you luck. Wish I could help. Would crappy sixth grade-level jokes take your mind off? I’ve got one sitting next to me as I type. Just sayin’…. 🙂

They go there when they need sex toys, too. Ahem. But you probably don’t want to share that one with your boys. 😀

Hahaha! No, they know too much as it stands. Maybe that’s a nugget that can wait. Better yet, that’s one of those fun things to discover on one’s own. 😃

Thank you! I am amazed that I’ve been able to write stuff lately. I already have tomorrow’s fiction post done! That never happens… I *really* needed a new story to work on. Seriously, once ‘secret admirer’ was done, I was totally empty. This is why I hate (and have so much trouble with) endings…

Hey, I know what you mean. That’s why I write a series… it keeps the story going. I just focus on different characters within the same group and family. You should maybe think about trying that with the super long story – break it into sequels. Then it feels like you finished something, when really it’s just a pause!

I need to try to organize my thoughts (and characters) to do that. I’d like to… but part of my attachment is to the main characters… so I still might struggle with letting go… 🙂

Still, life happens to the main characters… you just need to find strategic spots to divide up the story. End with one thing getting resolved and introducing a new plot point to start the next part.
