What's the Difference between a sane, semi-

Posted by Susan47 on November 5, 2005, at 18:47:44

intelligent woman and a mentally unbalanced, "brilliant" one?
About four tokes. I think I'm really "sick". Sick, sick, sick. I want all the hurt to go away, I want it all to be replaced with love. And it won't happen, it didn't happen, it isn't going to happen, it comes from me.
I'm so small, you know? I'm really teeny tiny. In so many ways, I barely exist, even.
Sometimes I can try to help.
But not always. Sometimes I just need to be helped. There's times when I'm so tired of carrying myself, CW. So tired.

 

I suppose I hope you have a good rest of your life

I hope I have one, anyway, (smiles) Because. You just never know what's going to happen tomorrow. Or even in the next minute. Happiness can become tragedy (oh for Christ' sake don't anybody take me LITERALLY.. too many flat-minded people take everything literally, it's absolutely sickening what Hollywood has done to our thinking!! We wonder why terrorism flourishes in our world. We're too stupid to see how we, each and every one of us, through the crap we watch and put into our brains and read every day, how we create our reality .. then we sob about it. How insane is that? I'm just asking.)
Planes crash. Cars crash.
People even crash.
Just people.
Crashing.
Crashing into each other.
Crash, crash, .. smash.
Smash me up against the wall
Feel my heat
Cum in your pants
Cum in mine.
I'm sick.
Sick, sick, sickeningly insane.
It's true you know.
Love can make you insane.
Unless of course, you already were.
Before.
I'm sick.

It sounds like you've fallen in love and I hope you live happily ever after? Given yourself over to depraved fantasies? Human stupidity is limitless? Your dope's stronger than mine?
I'll get this right eventually.

All of them. All of the above, every bit of it mister, you betcha. For some people tomorrow will be just another day.
For me, I'll never be the same after tomorrow. And the tomorrow and the morrow after that. I know India's going to change me. It's already changed my children, but how? Who can predict these things?

So you're going to India, and your children are already there or have been? Which part of India? I grew up in the country in Australia, so I have a predictable response to India (so many people), which has been OK, holed up in 5 star hotels eating the food in the 70s. (Masala Dosas in the pink room of the Madras Sheraton). Are you in love with some lovely Indian?

A great deal of what you say just simply escapes me, Declan. Whoosh, it went over my head like a jet plane, like tomorrow's jet planes, only I'll be inside them, inside, encased in a sliver of aluminum over steel ribs several tons of jet fuel, and a fire burning inside, propellers .. when I was seven my family moved from Ontario to BC. We flew from Toronto to Van to Rupert and it was .. romantic, and exciting. I remember the perfume my mother wore at the time was "Evening in Paris". I remember the props whirling. The silly colouring books that some fool adult had thought, would be entertaining or amusing. The hard little coloured candies. The romance of my parents .. omigod you should've seen them like pigs in heat it was funny and I still to this day Dream about them holding hands across the table at dinner, we ate in a lot of restaurants in those days .. we slept in a lot of strange beds, but it was fun; I didn't know anybody who moved around as much as we did.
Now my kids are doing the same thing. They're so lucky. Lucky little people.. I love them. I'm going across the world, literally, to see that they're okay. To see them. To share this with them ... I'm really lucky too.

PS
What's this about being holed up in five-star hotels? Are you talking India or Australia here?

India, of course. When my wife and I went there we'd freak out from time to time and take refuge in 5 star hotels. Such beautiful food. (Where I grew up there were almost no people. Indian cities were a bit of a shock). The sorts of places I couldn't afford now, like the Taj Mahal in Bombay. I haven't been to India for 20 years. There was still prohibition in Bombay then. I'd like to go to Rajahstan (sp?). I'd like to drive up that highway from Pakistan to Kashgar, but what with the politics in that part of the world, I don't suppose I will.

Yes, but an Indian five-star hotel isn't like one of ours. It's more three-star, then you have your deluxe and your super-deluxe, which is more like our four or five-star. I can't afford even the five-star. My first few hours here were a shock but it's amazing how quickly you get used to the rabble, to being a little fish in a big pond .. it isn't difficult to assimilate, which is amazing, considering the different life we've led. But in reality humans all have the same basic needs. The slums at the airport in Mumbai (Bombay) are what shocked me. Luckily Rohinton Mistry wasn't a stranger to my reading. What he writes is absolutely true. Frightening, how disposable a human life is. That's the first thing that hit me, here. I'm as disposable as anyone. My life means nothing more than the poorest beggar's, and the process of my assimilation was a process of coming to that realization. A little fish in a big pond.
Quite frankly, it's mind-bending stuff. You know?
