I think I have just experienced the 2 most surreal and obscure weeks of my life. It has been one of those times where your whole world flips upside down, where you know something major has changed and things are never going to be the same again. My stepdad passed away suddenly, without warning, and it has left my family in a weird stasis. Its like a major role reversal, I'm the parent, my mums the child. Only I'm not really the parent, I feel more like a slave, afraid to question, afraid to say no. I feel worn out, from the travelling, from the late, long phonecalls where all I can do is listen, from the responsibility. I have my own life, I have way too much going on in that to deal with everything my mum throws at me. I feel like I am on a high speed rocket, hurtling towards the edge of the earth. I'm guessing that soon I'll get to the point where the only way is up, I can't wait for that day.
This whole experience isn't all bad though. I've learnt to appreciate things more, learnt to appreciate people, learnt to love just a little bit harder. Maybe even learnt to experience life a little more. I've learnt that it can all end so unexpectedly, that for all the plans and dreams you have, you need something for today, just in case it is your last day on earth. I have learnt to respect the love that others give, and to never leave without letting those you love know that you love them. I appreciate the beauty that is around me, the colours and sounds, the senses, the feel of rain on my skin, the warmth of the sun. Its not that I haven't always appreciated those things, just that they mean so much more when you have stared your own mortality in the face, when you realise that your not invincible. Life is changes, life is full of wonder, life will throw so many things at you, and you know what I'm happy to be alive through all of it, through the pain, the tears, the joy, the laughter. I'm happy to be.
Anyway aside from my crazy musings and lamentations....
I still need to post pics of my shiny new navel piercing... because well I think you all deserve to see it. My pool playing is finally beginning to kick ass....I'm actually considering opening a pool hall for kick ass girls. My guitar playing sucks, because well I just haven't had chance to practise, but it will get better! GTA: San Andreas has begun to take over my life, when I'm not working, cleaning or sorting out my mum. SOAD are still rocking my socks off unbelievably goddamn I adooooore the new album! Today is the day that the new Foo's album comes out...guess what I'm going to buy on my lunch break :D and then listen to all day at work whilst dealing with peoples issues on the phone!
