"Sail on silvergirl...." 2002-08-23 - 1:09 a.m.
Insomnia and self-loathing make a great combination, don't you think? I just wish I could take my last writing to heart and give myself the necessary swift kick in the ass to realize that life does indeed suck and that's just the way it is.
But first I also need to realize a few things:
A) Boredom --> depression <-- loneliness
B) But things could always be worse. The Pacific ocean is almost two miles deep in the Marianas trench. That's a long way to go before you hit the proverbial "rock bottom".
C) 1. Music is everything. What else can I say? From the Reinecke Flute Concerto to "Bridge Over Troubled Water" to "Lithium" to the Elgar Cello Concerto. It's all there, how I feel.
2. The power to make music is a great one. And I have that power. I AM a good flute player. My undergraduate flute teacher can't tell me I'm not anymore. I got accepted to three good music schools for a master's program in performance. Her lack of faith in me caused me to doubt that I'd do so. But I did. I can have faith in myself, and that's what I really need.
Well now I feel the need to apologize. For what and to whom I'm not sure. I guess it just helps to spit some of this out sometimes. Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight.
