All of the plans I had written in my head for myself are now no longer options. Big beautiful blueprints, but I no longer have any of the right materials to build. The materials I do have left... I have no idea what to build with. I am in limbo. Every morning while I brush my teeth it feels like I spend an eternity trying to sketch out in my head: 1. who I am 2. who I want to be and 3. where I'm going. But most nights, when I crawl in bed and stare out the window I find myself scratching at it all with a big pink rubber eraser; "This is all I am, this is all there is". These plans never even last a day.
