Note to not Shelf
Any resentments or hatred I hold toward others, I will also hold toward myself. This occurs whether I realize it or not. So….I must strive to see my own essence and that of others beyond all of the BS our screwed up, confused selves show at face value. There is something MORE, there. There is essence…our essential selves.
We are all magnificent beings of pure love. Love yourself so that you are in...

Been sad (depressed) lately. Trying to observe what triggers these feelings. What the H am I thinking? Think it has to do with comparing. Hate that shit.
Will you love me now?
No?
How about now?
Perhaps just noticing me would suffice. Is not being noticed (attention) a form of “love” in itself? Or at-least it feels like love. (Thus the bad boy with dismissive parents becomes worse, perhaps?…and the “child” screams “notice me, please!”.

Consider the Alternative
I don’t think I appreciate this often enough, but you know, we’re all still in the game. How we play the game and the cards we are dealt is up to each and every one of us, but the truth is, we are here. How lucky we are! Play wisely, because one day you’ll be out. When it’s over, there is no going back. I’ve lost two close friends, so far, and have lived five...
So line on up and take your place, show your face to the morning.

This is dangerous. You can be doing a lot of work as a creative and still feel as though you’re not doing much of anything you love.
A long-time friend of mine who experienced this feeling early on in his career described it as: “having an apartment with a lot of things in it, and yet still…
