my mind is back - -

and since my melt-down on friday, i have felt lighter in spirit. like kurt says, it was grief raising it's necessary head ... sure felt like shit, though, while it was going on. but it kind of felt like, and the simile/metaphor here is coarse, but the grieving felt like a really angry blister, painful, painful, but when it broke, there was relief. (i might be coming back to edit this into oblivion)

some people have said the breaking is what allows in the light and healing. but honestly, if it were up to me, and god knows i know it's not, i'd just sit this one out.

i was channel surfing and came upon one of the religious channels and this a-hat was going on about how people how are not comforted by the holy spirit, it's because those people are not sorry enough for their sins. and i think this is bullshit.

i always get similes and metaphors mixed up - from wikipedia:
"A simile is a figure of speech comparing two unlike things, often introduced with the word "like" or "as".[1] Even though similes and metaphors are both forms of comparison, similes allow the two ideas to remain distinct in spite of their similarities, whereas metaphors seek to equate two ideas despite their differences. For instance, a simile that compares a person with a bullet would go as follows: "John was a record-setting runner and as fast as a speeding bullet." A metaphor might read something like, "John was a record-setting runner. That speeding bullet could zip past you without you even knowing he was there."

anyway, i am better - i got tattooed up today - i'm turning into the "illustrated woman."

again, love and peace
