Back To Basics.

Not sure where that title came from. It's been a long time since I've written something here. I think a lot of people who were doing this blogspot thing have migrated over to updating on Facebook or something. I don't know, I feel like that Facebook one line status is competing for real entries. Kind of sad how that happened.

Anyways, I really want to get into writing here more often again. So, here I go. I feel like I have a lot of thoughts jumbled in my mind.

I just finished watching Garden State again. I wrote about this before, but even watching it again I am so amazed with this movie. I'll admit, it's not quite as phenomenal the second time around, but still a great, great movie.

Frankly speaking, I think I'm at a confused place in my life. I've passed, or should have passed, that quarter life crisis. Yet, I find myself questioning, doubting, wondering about who I am and the choices I've made in my life.

I'm intentionally going to be a little vague here, but I think a lot of it has to do with certain figures from my past that have somehow found there way into my present. Honestly, it's a little surreal. I find myself very closed off to opening up about this in any public manner, actually no one knows what the heck I'm talking about really. Unless you can read my mind, you have no idea.

The only hint I can give is it reminds me of how I felt two years ago around this same time. But I think about the course I took then, think about the things that have happened to me since then, I wonder if I'm the same person. Would I take the same path if push were to come to shove?

Part of me is scared that I wouldn't. I hate that part of me. I think it's justified by the domino of things that followed seven hundred twenty odd days earlier.

Yet, one of the things I told myself to learn from that past situation was to take some chances. So, conflicting interpretations of that singular period in my life. When did life get so complicated? Does it just get more confusing as we get older?

are you scared that you wouldn't, or wise enough to know not to? depends on if you think you'd be better off living the same life again or trying something different in the hopes of achieving something better.
