I have quite a bit on my mind today, and I absolutely need to get it out. So YOU all will read it, whether you like it or not. =)
1) While going through my things during the process of packing and sorting and such, I keep finding little things from my ex. Now, don't get me wrong. I am pretty well over her. I know we aren't together, never will be, etc. I am at peace with this,and moved on. However, seeing these things brings up old memories, and I miss making those memories. And to make things worse, I do like another person now, and this person knows it and likes me back (unfortunately an ocean keeps us apart!!!), so I feel like if I miss those old memories then I am not being a good guy towards this other girl. I absolutely refuse to do anything that might possible hurt her, but its hard to let go of the past. grrr. I hate that.
2) I am, of course, moving. And its almost here. Like Friday. I will be 12 hours away from anyone I've ever known and loved. I will have to rely upon my own skills to sink or swim. To make it or break it is up to me, now. It is such a frightening feeling. Yet, I feel overwhelmed with the liberty to make this life of mine, my own. I love knowing that my future is in my hands(well, and in God's, should I choose to obey His will and such).
3) Some of you might remember a month or so ago, I made mention of a legal battle between my parents, which is a continuation of their divorce 15 years ago. They went to court again today. My mother's attorney is intent on getting my dad in big trouble, and I know my mom can stop this anytime she wants. But she won't, because my dad got her in trouble years back due to her not obeying the court orders on visitation with us kids. I pleaded with him to not do that, because it could possibly give her a short time in county jail for contempt of court. He dropped it. But now she is bring the fight against him, and I asked her to drop it all the same. She won't. And my dad implied this is my fault, because I asked him to drop the case back then. "If I would have taught her the lesson then, there wouldn't be a problem now". He even said he was throwing away some things I gave him (they were valueless trinkets, but things I gave thoughtfully, nonetheless). I so don't need all the bull crap on my mind at this time. I feel drunk with anger and sorrow. I really despise family right now, and I know this is wrong.
