Embarrassment
Letters Never Sent- Vol 4
February 29, 1992 Dear Kelly, I hope you don’t mind getting letters in Campus Mail from guys you don’t know very well. I am sure, because of how pretty you are you get lots of guys trying to ask you out and stuff. But I am a little shy about talking to girls in person, so I thought I would give this a try. I didn't used to be, I used to talk to girls all the time, not like a smooth operator, or anything, just like a regular operator, I guess, but last year I had an accident with an occilating fan, (it's a long story), and every since then, well like i said its a long story.

Midnight Thoughts
Are you ever wide awake in the middle of the night when you know you should be sleeping, but you can’t sleep because your mind is just racing with all the problems you have on a daily? Then out of the blue in the midst of all those important thoughts, something nonrelevant pops into your head. Like something that happened to you when you were in elementary school. That seems to happen to me a lot. Like just the other night or morning, I’m not really sure but I know it was dark out and everyone else was asleep; I was listening to my mediation music with my eyes closed just listening to the relaxing sounds, then a memory of something that happened when I was in the fifth grade came flooding back. This wasn’t something fun or exciting, nope, it was gross. But there it was right there in my head. The memory of when this boy in my class, let’s call him Jimmy, just to save face, had his head facing down with his head in his hands. I thought he was crying or that he had a really bad headache. I kept looking at him and even asked him if he was fine. But there he sat, holding his head, no words, no sounds. Just there.

One Time I Was Awful
The entirety of life is a learning curve. It’s a process. It’s about growth. It’s about being better than you were yesterday, even if just slightly. It’s about not beating yourself up if you aren’t. Hopefully, you’ll get another shot at it tomorrow. It’s cumulative. It’s baby steps. It’s moving forward on your journey, incrementally. It’s the stock market. Sometimes you’re up. Sometimes you’re down. But ideally, you’re mostly up before you cash out.

TIME WHEN I WAS EMBARRASSED
When you are upset, ask yourself some difficult questions to gauge how shy you are. Describe a time when your awareness of your emotions was preventing you from responding to the situation in such a way that […] [You will have to talk about this for a minute or two. Describe a situation or situation in which you feel embarrassed because of a lack of knowledge of a subject or because of your inability to speak English fluently.

The Size of Your lips changed
Please let me go Caleb, you are not here, and I don't want you to be. Not white and not black. I want home to come get me, so I can heal in an environment where nothing you showed me exists, the bad feelings don't exist either. I have never felt more alone, and you only kick me around in these dark days, after you broke my brain. I don't know what is real and what is not real anymore, that is why I demand I go where I know it's real. Where I know an XL male shirt, doesn't fit someone with my build.

Trying Out Pot for the First Time at the Age of 71
I've never been a party girl. It’s something that never appealed to me. It’s not in my genes. I tried smoking cigarettes when I was 12 years old. I got sick to my stomach, puked, and wondered why anyone would want to smoke. I didn’t go to Woodstock or hang out with the hippies at Haight Ashbury in San Francisco. I failed hippie 101.
