It is all very beautiful to open one's horizons. But what is it worth when you have several? it is difficult enough to make a choice, so why distress yourself with several?
What I'm trying to say is: - (unless you are overly naive) - the saying "you have it all or nothing" is false optimism. A truer saying would go forth as such: "you have the one and only choice or you choose to have nothing". I will admit the saying is not as concise.

You cannot possibly encompass two loves at once (schizophrenia excepted). So you may as well make the best possible choice. The opposite being the one leading to regret; regret being another step down from indecisiveness.
And now I am lying in bed, expecting something to happen. Whether it will appear from beneath my pillow or from above the low ceiling matters not. The only place anything worthwhile ever comes from is the imagination. True affection only comes from few living people, seldom from those you truly want it to come from. I am not trying to push people away; quite the contrary.
But plain complaints will hardly lead me anywhere. This is where I try to react responsibly and consequently without an optimistic result.
I have been finding it so hard to chase these words across the page these last few days. I try my best, but a failure will never account for a success.
The clock still is ticking round in its same old routine. And still: a glimpse is the most I can catch of you.
