lacuna

It’s been a while since we’ve spoken.
It’s no secret that we’ve been distant;
estranged.
My life got too busy for you.
Other things became a priority;
And I changed.

You’ve stayed exactly the same,
right where I left you.
I stopped visiting -
Got caught up,
and Lost you.


Thought of you often.
Never at peace.
Days began to escape me.
A discouraging tease.

Too much has happened.
I don’t know where to start.
Highs as high as the mountains.
Lows beyond anything I’ve ever felt.

A lonely journey.
Slipping and sliding.
Harder without you there,
Within me.

I want to tell you so much.
You are eager to hear.
But this starts with a confession,
It was never you, it was always me; my fear.

Nozick's Experience Machine

Have you ever contemplated brain lobotomy after an embarrassing moment, a bad break-up, or finding out something you wish you never did? I never really thought about it until a friend brought it up. For those who don't know, a brain lobotomy is a neurosurgical procedure that consists of cutting the connections to and from the prefrontal cortex (courtesy of wikipedia).It's a procedure used to control or reduce the effects of a whole bunch of mental disorders. In a nutshell, it disassociates emotional attachment to painful memories. I'm sure if it were an effective and successful procedure it would be as common as Botox. Sure it looks painful (seriously gory and painful) but let's pretend it's not. My question is, if the practice was safe, affordable and widely available would you consider it? Would you want to disconnect your feelings and emotions from a particular distressing memory? I like to believe that there is a whole lot of unnecessary bullshit I have put up...

What is she really saying 'yes' to?

Since we're 'ALL' getting engaged lately.. What ever happened to realistic marriage proposals? Don't get me wrong. I'm not old fashioned nor am I hating. But things have definitely gotten out of hand (don't even get me started on destination: EVERYWHERE Bach parties). I'm in my late twenties, everywhere I turn people are either talking about getting engaged/married or actually getting engaged/married. It's great because it comes with my age. It's natural to think about settling down and starting a family. Great. But, what's up with this ever growing pissing contest of which man can come up with a better "Will you marry me...."? Just hear me out. What ever happened to classy, thoughtful and romantic proposals? I mean seriously, have you heard about Seal and Heidi Klum's proposal? I don't care how much you make, but building a customized igloo on top of Whistler for the purpose of proposing is a little over the top. Haterade asi...

Men are different? You don't say,

I'm no relationship expert. It's the truth. But there is one thing I am absolutely certain of when it comes to men and women. It honestly came as a shock to me when I discovered that men and women are different on so many levels. I mean, it makes an awful lot of sense but it didn't quite become a fact of life until someone said it to me... out loud. The more I repeated it, the more I adapted to it. In the end, I don't think it's important to understand all of our differences, but we should remember they exist. By the way, I must warn you this information is solely based on things I've come across. Evolution Did you know that all male mammals other then humans practice polygamy? It's part of a man's human instinct to want to spread his seeds everywhere. Women on the other hand, are selective and extremely careful who they give themselves to. When a woman selects a man to bear her offspring it's because she views him as the best provider possible. W...
