Lyrical Dissonance
I wish I was good at poetry.
That my left brain would leave my right alone.
Words flowing haphazardly into beauty
Rather than precisely into semicolons.

Yet, it is not.
But all is as it should be;
The world might make sense only through poetry
but that’s not how I make sense to the world.

– William Doherty, psychology professor at the University of Minnesota (via psychotherapy)
I had the thought today that some things might just be easier if I were married…then I realized that’s nearly empirically false. Then I laughed.
