Oh you silly, stupid pastime of mine
You were always good for a rhyme
And from the first to all the last times, all the signs
Said ‘Stop’ - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started
It said ‘Stop’ - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started

“Oh, something is there, waiting for me. Perhaps someday the revelation will burst in upon me and I will see the other side of this monumental grotesque joke. And then I’ll laugh. And then I’ll know what life is.” -Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

The Dark Side
For most of my life there was always this part of myself that I tapped into, physically and emotionally, that drove my creativity. Sometimes it was almost unbearable to reach into this “dark side,” but by doing so I was able to write in a way that provided a release. For the past two years or so, that release has been greatly missed. Whether it was the changes in my life or the realization that this side of myself was actually a scary place, I completely stopped writing, stopped loving, and stopped living in the present.
At what point do you draw the line between the darkness and the light? I never was able to stop the two from blending together. Tapping into my emotions has become something that terrifies me, when it used to be almost a cathartic experience. By preventing myself from what was once natural, I have built a cement wall keeping out anything that scares me and have hurt many people in the process. When I read things that I wrote a few years ago or see pictures of myself, I cannot even imagine who that person was. I have learned a lot about myself since I moved to California, met some amazing people, and have been inspired, for a lack of better words (ha!), to get my shit together.
So here is goes…this year I will write. I will love. I will live in the present and embrace the things that terrify me most.
“I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.” Sylvia Plath
