It’s strange what people sometimes let themselves forget.
I have an affinity to rain, if I could without getting ill I’d probably live in it. It rained tonight and allowed me some time to think. I don’t know what it is about the pattering of water, whether its a slight drizzle or a torrential rain, I think better, clearer.
I’m broken.
Strange to say but I am, that’s how come I can be so happy one moment and yet not. It’s how I can jump into things with two feet that feel right, but then spend weeks of indecisiveness over simple simple things.
Free Companioning Mitra was right. But not for the reasons I chose. I liked her company but I also wanted to hurt people. That was wrong of me and I should have been honest with Mitra. If she reads this I hope that she doesnt get poisoned on it. But its been the right decision, her company is calming and Good for me.
Beth has and is a good thing for my soul. She eases things and makes me feel better about some recent things that have happened.
I miss and always will miss Torrid. But she’s gone, I have to ignore that what took me months to take, her new guy got gifted to him on a silver platter. I have to stop looking at it as a slight on me and what we had was lies. Stop thinking that he is better than me, just different. She’s happy and that’s all that really matters.
I need to stop making and breaking plans. I have some awesome plans, but I don’t push them through.
I need to decide if I want back onto the forums. I successfully locked myself out. I have no access to the forums its funny, no one noticed my passing no one cares. Maybe its only been a couple of weeks and people havent noticed. Maybe the truth is that no one gives a shit.
And I have to accept that. I’m not what I was, hell I know im not. I used to have “friends” everywhere. If I said I was looking for a homestone people would jump to recruit me. Now im just… Like uncle albert from Only Fools and Horses. All stories from yesterday, mostly a joke.
I came third in Ko-ro-ba Yearly Tournament. I fought well and beat some of the best, I should have placed at least second, I messed up but thats cool. 2 years ago that would have been pressed with respect and acclaim. Now, no one really cares. The influx of the black clads and the influx of Rp only players has killed the community spirit in sl gor.
I used to read on the forums over and over again that people didnt like going ooc cause it ruined the fantasy of gor. I remember when the weekly ooc event parties were huge. Everyone had fun. People became people to other people and bonds formed. Communities Formed.
Now the communities seem dead. There is no really comradaerieship between red caste in cities that I see. People leave homestones as easy as ripping a sheet of paper apart.
All that seems to be left is small clicks of people, and a migrating population of the “better” roleplayers. Moving on to the new best homestone as they grow bored or stale in their own roleplay. First it was Ti, then the woods, then Telnus, hell even Obscure Reality, now who knows. I am and never will be apart of the in crowd.
Well what I need to do is now either go through with my plans for a grandoise roleplay. Or let it die. If I decide to go through with it I need to really kick my ass into gear.
I need to start focusing a little more on Mitra and Beth.
I need to find a home.
I need to fix myself.
I need to find myself….
