i want people here on WP to post the things in life of which they are appreciative. as for me, i appreciate kind and understanding people. i appreciate room-temperature sharp cheddar cheese. i appreciate high butterfat dark chocolate. i appreciate a cold drink on a hot day. i appreciate air conditioning in the summer and heat in the winter. i appreciate wurlitzer theatrical pipe organs and the super-talented people who play and maintain them.

I would wholeheartedly, if I could.

But a part of me is stubborn.
Wanting something. Is crying. Is very frustrated. Impatient. Suppressed. Holding on.
And the cause was mostly not external or circumstantial.

All I can conclude from this, is sheer expression of immaturity -- maybe possession since it doesn't make sense, even developmental issues are concerned -- one that I've been struggling my whole life, concerning emotions, how much it got me into trouble and the reason why I cannot learn a lot of lessons concerning life, reality and truth.

I'd appreciate everything I already have in this life and at this very moment, if I could.

But a part of me is a stubborn insatiable ungrateful miserable bastard. I wish I could just drop this crap like a luggage that is.
"It's" reasons made me cry sometimes, pathethic enough to be sad about it.

Already did. Plenty of times. Maybe more than I can ever remember.
And it usually happens out of nowhere or whenever I wake up on random.

The point was I'm utterly confused than unsatisfied, sad or miserable.
Yet the confusion causes me more unsatisfaction and misery.

I'm just very torn between what might've been called a nirvana and... Whatever the heck is this.
And I don't know where it truly came from, except it's not conscious. I only wish for 'it' to make up it's mind already.

So the feelings, while it happens often, it doesn't lasts... Just like everything else.

It's mostly all on me than the world's.

I appreciate blabby for always blabbing in alliteration, and regular prose too. I appreciate my friends here on WP, who mean the world to me. You guys supported me through the hell of last year but also now - with everyday shites and giggles. I
appreciate my family more than I could ever say (quite literally - alexithymia and mutism), and my sweet beau who has more patience than I could ever hope to muster. I thank the universe for helping me meet my best friend. I appreciate doctors and nurses, police officers, key workers and those who break their arse to earn minimum wage during a pandemic, as well as those who've lost their businesses trying their best to stay afloat. Also, the researchers and scientists who study epidemiology and virology. A huge thanks to veterinarians too because honestly, I'd be a basket case without my farmyard of pets, including Mr George and Delores.

On a lighter note, I appreciate these things:

Music producers
Book publishers and sellers - especially Hive, The Book Depository UK, and Bookshop.org
My therapists - the whole nine yards of them but especially N
Air conditioning
Swimming pool builders
Pillow manufacturers
Ice water, whiskey, and maraschino cherries
That moment when you're hungry and the right thing's in the fridge
Boats, crickets, lilacs, and pine trees
Shooting stars
Michael C Hall and HBO
The Supervet Dr Noel Fitzpatrick
(((Janet))) for saving my life

and

My pyjamas, otherwise known as my Shleppies :heart:
