hi again

a short piece published on july tenth twenty twenty five

it's been a while since i've last written on this

i don't really have a good reason as to why.

sometimes i just forget things

and then one day,

i remember something from the past

and want to do it so bad.

sometimes it hurts to remember things

and sometimes it's amazing.

life surely can be confusing,

but sometimes, it's like i just don't care.

and when i'm too tired to think,

it's almost bliss.

and then the day dissolves into nothing,

only to be remembered far in the future.

in a way,

things are just fine.

i'm going off to college,

i should be there with a smile on my face,

but instead, i suppose this summer

has turned into a depressing one.

full of mental pain.

but once again, in a way,

things are just fine.

i have dealt with this type of pain

my entire life,

and at this point,

i dont need to care.

i am past caring because

my brain constantly feeds me stress

but i just shrug it off.

i don't want to say

im better now

i just want to say

something worked.

i fucking graduated and

after the 6 months in treatment centers

they tried so hard to rip my life from me

but i stole it back

i don't know what posessed me

but i have never done so much with my life this year.

after treatment, i gave up on the people who i trusted so much

i quit the therapists

the long arguments

the people who made me feel like nothing

and most of all,

utah.

i read the book, "the institute"

when i was younger.

i loved it so much

and when i felt like the book

had become my life

i stopped giving a fuck.

but not about myself, as i told you.

once i dropped the therapists

who constantly told me i was the reason

my family was broken

and that told me i was doing everything wrong

and that i was going to die,

i freed myself.

i finally had the balls

to make friends

and build something i cared about.

ever since i've gotten out of those places,

i think i faced the reality

that the world really isn't a good place to live.

so i've tried to make it good as best i can

and i guess i'm glad there are people

who are happy to have known me.

i don't know their names,

but i guess it's something.

if that someone is you,

thanks

because you probably had a bigger effect

than me.

and i dont know what the

future holds, but i'm sure

that i'll still keep coming back here.

so thank you

for reading or skimming.

and cheers,

here's to your future, too.

may it be interesting and long-lasting.

and here's to everyone and everything, really.

i wonder what we'll accomplish together.
