Tea Parties and Hourglasses
People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost. ~H. Jackson Browne
To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything else. ~Emily Dickinson
Many people expect you to be happy on their time and on their terms. I am not one of those people that believes that misery loves company, but on the flip side having sunshine shoved down my throat is no fun either. Yes-I am a bitter person but I do not let my acrimony spill over to other people. In return, I hope for the same understanding. Just because I don't smile (or frown) in your presence it is not because I don't like you. This applies also to when someone is delivering good news. I am happy for you, but I don't do excitement. It may be very self-absorbed of me, but my depression fog is thick.

Do-overs
Why can't I get a do-over? I am not just referring to going back in time because with the same family dynamics, I will be just as fucked up. I have had a fantasy world (since I was very very young); in it my mother (not my current mother--she would be my grandmother) is a sibling to my siblings (my oldest sibling is 60 something and I am 34, so possible). Anyway, I would be a part of a huge loving family.
