Have you ever noticed that the best writers go through some of the hardest times? I cannot begin to describe to you how much I have suffered in the last two months. I was fighting with my mother; I went into an open relationship before being dumped by a guy I'm completely head over heels with, I managed to fail all my first semester classes, and I suffered a hospital overnight after which I became severely stress sick for over a week.

All writers go through times like these. And I have written so much and been so inspired during this whole time that I'm almost grateful for the pain. In the end though, it all worked out well.


I stayed with my first boyfriend after the break-up, although I was thrown into a wonderfully deep, month-long suicidal depression. And just recently, my then-ex, the one I love as much as I loved Daddy, came back. And I'm the happiest I've been in a long time.

The end is /not/ near this time. What is near is the future. And I pray it is a happy one.

And to all the writers who've been there, done that, to all the writers who've worked horrible jobs to keep themselves afloat, who've been trailer trash, or who are still struggling, I feel your pain and I wish you well.

Really, artsy types are the strongest kind-because most of us suffer what would push others off the brink.
