it's really cold in here. window won't close. =(

i wish i were more thick-skinned. literally and figuratively.

dredging up past demons is draining but necessary, and you can only hope that the hurt will eventually sink into nothingness and be replaced by new life. there are lessons i've had to learn--these are the times to apply them. honesty can be painful, but i cannot hide behind lies or covered truths anymore, no matter how comfortable. at least it's clearer now.
