Not the best date night movie...
Anybody else seen it?
My thoughts expressed... nothing more, nothing less.
"Finding my way in a Dark Night of the Soul since 2005."

When I saw this posted on PostSecret, I realized how easy (yet unsatisfying) it is to try to substitute entertainment for the risky, unpausable, unpredictable nature of real life and relationship. An earlier PostSecret entry put it another way:
"I cried for Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars Episode III ... but not for the tsunami victims."
Ouch.

If I were to have submitted this next entry for myself, it would have been ammended slightly. I would have written:
"I WISH IT WERE EASIER FOR ME TO SMILE AND FAKE IT."

These next two are pretty self explanatory if you've been reading my blog for any length of time.

This last one made me cry the first time I read it. When I am depressed I feel so damn alone. There have only been a handful of occasions when somebody I know recognizes my depression and takes the time to see how I'm doing. When it has happened, its made me feel so loved and cared for.
I am so thankful for my wife who has struggled alongside with me through my depression over the years. She is such an amazing friend to me.

"Deep Thoughts" from Saturday Night Live ...
Ambition is like a frog sitting on a Venus Flytrap. The flytrap can bite and bite, but it won't bother the frog because it only has little tiny plant teeth. But some other stuff could happen and it could be like ambition.
