pressure
Much the way that a cutter would describe a feeling of comfort and relief while indulging in their taboo ritual, I would describe a similar feeling when referencing my indulgent fantasies of a simplistic life and state of mind.
Bend anything too far and the weight of that pressure is sure to cause a snap for relief. There’s something about the idea that at any moment an object under great pressure could snap which intrigues me as I continue to push the limits of pressure out of my own shear curiosity and will.

it's kind of like yogurt
blogging, that is (stay with me here). I have this thing about yogurt. I love it in phases, one month I'm on and the next..well you know. That seem to be my formidable relationship with this blog as well. So, today...I'm on it like yogurt. :)
I've had some thoughts bouncing around in my mind lately. Thoughts consisting mostly of frustration, contempt and discourse about certain circumstances in my life that seem beyond my control. This lack of control is an area of awkward ickiness for me. I admittedly, do not like disorder or scattered ideas. I prefer to explore ideas, seek information, categorize and find logical order to my thoughts. Unfortunately, that can be difficult when dealing with people that are completely oblivious.
But, I know that by moving on, moving forward and making a new plan I can regain some of the control over these circumstances in my life. Which I know that I can do, by remembering this mantra. There is nothing wrong with visiting the sad places in your mind, however; they key to truly moving on is to make sure that those visits are short and become consistently less frequent with time. In other words, if you want to move on, you can visit....but you can't live there!
