Monday, September 07, 2009 ( 4:11 PM ) shut up christine let it burn
the day i left for india, kuo came to my house and dropped off a cd with Your Ex-lover is Dead by the Stars, on it
it begins with this line:
When there's nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire.
this quote has been on my mind often, as of late.
today my horoscope said (yes i read my horoscope): What remains is worth keeping.
i'm noticing the patterns and cycles in my life, conflicts i have over and over, mistakes i repeat again and again. asking myself what am i not learning the first time around. trying to dig out the roots so that new things can grow
i'm terrified that we are making a huge mistake. again. and if it blows up in my face i know you'll say i told you so. you told me so.
i don't know what's going to happen but we are willing to risk everything and walk into the fire together so that we can keep whatever is left, even if the pieces are all broken
