Ecclesiastes 1:9 - "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun." I'VE BEEN CARRYING AROUND THIS FEAR FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS, I'M AFRAID OF HAVING A FALSE SENSE OF PROGRESSION. AS IT'S WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE, IF NOTHING IS NEW UNDER THE SUN, THEN IS THERE ANY SUCH THING AS CHANGE? TRANSFORMATION? PROGRESSION? OR IS IT ALL FOR NAUGHT? IF EVERYTHING GOES IN CYCLES, CIRCLES, LOOPS, WHOSE TO SAY I WON'T END UP MAKING THE MISTAKES OF THOSE AROUND ME? WHOSE TO SAY I WON'T REPEAT THE MISTAKES OF MY ELDERS? I'M AFRAID NOT OF CHANGE, BUT BEING LET DOWN BY THE CONCEPT OF CHANGE, OF BELIEVING THAT I COULD POSSIBLY CHANGE IN A WORLD THAT THRIVES ON REPEATING ITSELF. THAT THRIVES ON BEING COMPLETELY UNAWARE OF ITSELF.

about

"...WAS MADE DURING SOME OF THE DARKEST MOMENTS IN MY LIFE SO FAR. A LOT OF MY LIFE HAS BEEN REALLY FOGGY LATELY... I FEEL... OFF-COURSE, CONFUSED AND ANXIOUS ABOUT WHERE I'M GOING IN LIFE, AND WHO I AM... OR AT LEAST STRIVE TO BE. I'VE BEEN HAVING DREAMS ABOUT DYING VIA CAR ACCIDENTS & OTHER TRAGEDIES, THEN REVIVING OVER AND OVER. SOMETIMES TRYING TO FIND PIECES OF MY OLD SELF, OR I'M BEING MET WITH ROADBLOCKS & OTHER ADVENTURES OR CHALLENGES.

FOR THE PAST COUPLE YEARS, I'VE BEEN JOURNALING... STUDYING MY OVERALL BEHAVIOR & MIND-FRAME. WITHIN CERTAIN CONTEXTS, I FOUND LIBERATION, I WAS GROWING MORE HONEST WITH MYSELF & IT'S SERVED AS AN OUTLET FOR ME TO TRY NEW THINGS. WITHIN OTHERS, I FOUND MYSELF JOURNEYING THROUGH A RABBIT HOLE OF UNRESOLVED ISSUES, DEPRESSION, & INSECURITIES.

THAT'S CURRENTLY WHERE I'M AT."
