There appear to be many people who chose to go crazy (or become alcoholics, addicts, criminals, suicides) rather than have to bear the pain and ambiguity of a life situation that they have decided that they cannot stand.

The mixed race child.

I don't know why people try to hide their racist attitudes towards others, because it will always come out with their actions. That's just cruel. And it has a lasting effect on how that child will perceive themselves and the world around them...

People write different ways, there is no wrong or right way to do it. Some people make a list of characters and try to figure out who they are and what they are motivated by before they start. Some people write the beginning and ending and then fill in the middle. Mark Twain said he would re-write everything dozens of times. Write it once, then write it again, then again and again until he was finally happy with it.

I feel like I could rewrite something forever. To a point where I'm just shifting it around, like food on a plate. I just need to get over it and actually finish something...

Curious, what did you get the B in twosocks?

The class is called Topics in Visual Art Studies, but the topic was Ethics. It was the most interesting class I took that semester for sure.

I have been married for nearly 18 years. It's not a piece of cake and it hasn't always been happy.

He's my 2nd husband. I was married to my 1st for 3 years, but he was gay/bisexual and "still in the closet" while we were married.

I have never really been single. I've always had a serious boyfriend/marriage. I feel like I missed out by not having some fully single years....

I have been single quite a bit. I feel like it could go either way depending on your predisposition for depression, anxiety, optimism. I always felt more sad without someone to sleep next to at night.
