An Afternoon

"Later she remembered all the hours of the afternoon as happy--one of those uneventful times that seem at the moment only a link between past and future pleasure, but turn out to have been the pleasure itself."


F. Scott Fitzgerald

That Moment When

You confide in someone and they begin spewing solutions.  You find your self saying "I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine."  And you realize that all this time you wanted to be understood, you really just wanted to understand for yourself.

And then you start to believe it.

 "If you hold onto the handle, she said, it's easier to maintain the illusion of control. But it's more fun if you let the wind carry you."

--Brian Andreas
