Part of Me Gets Sick Part of Me Gets Sore

Sitting on the bathroom floor. Vodka mixed with Coca Cola. Deftones - Adrenaline (long time coming to be added to my Working List of Most Beautiful Albums). The smell of bleach processing. There is little that could remind me more of pre-highschool. There is little that could remind me more of being a teenager. Of choking.

Still choking.

I have found a few things that give me sense of purpose, sense of peace...if there's anything I've learned from being young and stupid, it's been gratitude; gratitude as the fundamentally most important thing you can have if you're going to have anything. You can live in the lushest of surroundings, have wine and dinner handed to you on a silver platter (and if you're there you're probably not grateful anyway), and if you have no gratitude, you have nothing. You have nothing.
