We make grooves in our minds, I'm told Our thoughts, the racing ones, that we go to are like grooves, the ones we obsess about and when we clear our minds we make new connections, literally new grooves and rivers and inlets and that's why it's so hard to break a thought pattern and my groove
is a man, always and once I've done with one I am relieved and think I will never do that again and then the going gets tough and I am anxious and I suddenly start thinking about a new one and I don't know him and or I don't like him and it's better if he has a girlfriend or wife because I can think oh, they have the perfect life and I am cold and outcast looking in a perfection, out in the cold and
it's existential really, to ungroove this, to make a new pathway I need to know, to make a groove that says, no one is perfect and always happy it doesn't exist in this world and you are not the abandoned child looking in at your parents happiness forever and ever
But it's so hard...my new one I don't even know...only in pictures a kind of celebrity, of sorts, but I don't like things he's done and he's got a wife who is on TV and I don't like her either since she's with him and she knows what he's done, and is doing and she still married him and they are not always perfectly happy they are rich, and go to gatherings of the elite but I've been to those and I hated them, was bored stiff Couldn't breathe
But I am anxious-- A student next year will I be nearly all the time, and it has been a long time since anything so freeing has happened to me or frightening, because I've been used to a kind of hopeless drudgery, but I will emerge with a new skill and live near the beach and near one of my favorite places on Earth. So what is there to be afraid of, really? Only the grooves the grooves that take me back to suffering only in my mind
