I expect that's as rare as any other kind of genius...<br /><br />As for that teacher, I always felt that she basically hated me, but she always left me alone.

Hear, hear!<br />Lies can be comforting, I guess--sometimes I've wished I could take comfort in them and their illusion of stability and safety.<br /> But eventually I always end up choosing to deal with the crazy insecurity of the constantly shifting universe all over again.Frescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323129046492056942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-70497758174872308652010-01-03T12:07:22.829-06:002010-01-03T12:07:22.829-06:00I was in this place recently - trading fear for sa...I was in this place recently - trading fear for safety. it's the ritualistic/repetitive nature that finally puts me off, the feeling that I'm a robotic extension of someone else's will.
