I hope John’s wrong. Not because he’s a pessimist, but because he’s a realist. I came to him overflowing with excitement, perhaps with a bright naïveté, only to be brought down in seven words, and the words have been ringing in my ears ever since. I use to think he was tactless and unsupportive. Maybe he is. But he tells the truth, and instead of my hopes, I can only turn to him for this.
That doesn’t change the fact that I’m a fantasist, who wants this right now.
Who needs this right now.
what were the seven words if you dont mind me asking.
Wow, good for you for coming back this far. You totally deserve this: “That shit doesn’t happen in real life”.
i realized after i posted my comment that i seem to be the only person who put first and last name and now i have the ability to change it, i think i will just let it be.
i ran across your website a few months ago, and was in awe not only by the stories you told, but by the way you wrote. it intrigued me, and i always find myself detaching from what im supposed to be doing only to come to here.
ive wanted to leave a comment for a while, but i was never sure what i wanted to say. but curiosity always wins, i suppose.
Thanks for the kind words. Curiosity of readers is always good for the ego of writers. :)
you’re very welcome. as a writer myself, sometimes a few words can bump up one’s self confidence, and they in return can write something without thinking of the judgmental thoughts some people seem to make. (although, it i s your site and if people didnt like what you wrote, why read further, eh? )
i want to write a blog as well, but just dont know how to get the ball rolling. i guess good things come with time. :]
