Sharpen Your Teeth. Sink Into Me.

She said, 'Believe it or not, I used to be idealistic'. I asked her what 'idealistic' meant.
'It means you live by what you think is right.'
'You don't do that anymore?'
'There are questions I don't ask anymore.'"

Let's talk about fears.

I'm not afraid of spiders. I'm not afraid of snakes. I'm not afraid of flying.
Come on, if you're going to be afraid of something let's make it worth while. I understand these are real fears, but let's dig deeper.

As I was trying to pin-point my insecurities, I realized that my insecurities are based on my fears. I'm afraid of divorce rates. I'm afraid of C-sections. I'm afraid of the ground falling out from beneath my feet.

If you don't know what's holding you back, how can you get past it? Now that I've realized that this is what I was afraid of, I can unlock my knees, stand up tall, and let go of the edge that was keeping me stable and holding me in place. Face it like a man ...you know what I mean.

Tell me your fears. Please.

It's Like Taking A Guess When The Only Answer Is Yes

I hope that one day you will have the experience of doing something you do not understand for someone you love

In case you missed it yesterday, here's a picture of my Dad from his highschool yearbook!! It never fails for me to go somewhere with a bunch of guys and find that they know my dad, and that he's cooler than me. It's the moustache. Awesome.


You can be a fan of Reinier "Legendary Moustache" Groeneveld on facebook!

My mom is so funny even when she doesn't mean to be. When I first moved to Toronto she said to me
"I don't even miss you--"
Then she realizes how cold that sounds so she quickly backs it up by saying "-I'm just so proud of you"
The other day we talked about me where I'd go next year after I graduate.
"I don't want you to come home--"
Again, cutting her off to point out how sad that sounds "If you told me now that you wanted to come back home, I'd tell you you're crazy. You have so much more going for you out there"

In our last phone conversation my mom said to me:
"When you come back to visit in February, I need you to do something with your stuff..."
My mom is turning my bedroom into an office. This is when it really hit me that I'm really moved out and on my own.

...So if anyone needs bedroom furniture, I'm selling. Give me a call.

I'm Not An Actor That's Forgotten The Lines, I'm An Actor That Never Read The Script

Desperate, I unplugged all the clocks in my house. With time stopped, I hid in today, safely away from your impending visit tomorrow

I've only recently overcome my fear of the dark. And my fear of basements.
But not the fear of being in my basement in the dark. I still run up the stairs as fast as I can when I'm left down there alone.

This is truth.
This is also a metaphor.
