Way back when I had such an easy time communicating with words, and now it seems like I can't put across my feelings effectively, like I'm stuck at a traffic light that isn't functioning properly because of a power outage...and yet I can't pick up on the pattern of people turning at the intersection, so I sit in a stunned silence as thoughts pile up behind me.

I'd just like to say another thing, though...

Earlier this year I had the typical questioning of values, for it seems like they were picked up by some type of whirlwind and spun around, then fell to the ground, weathered. I had a hard time piecing it back together...instead I stared at each one as if it was alien to me, and had to reconsider them completely.

Now...I think I'm figuring things out again and getting them straight.

Come to think of it...I think I'm kind of afraid of falling in love.
