i just want to exist without feeling the responsibility to need to do anything more. and i wish i could get there without continuously creating new responsibilities and expectations for myself. not that it isn't imposed partially by others, it absolutely is, but then i keep the cycle going. i just wish i could, be. but i'm not there yet. i've never really been there. i can't remember a single time in my entire life where i haven't been chasing some ideal to live up to how i really *should* be. it follows that i've not once in my entire life felt that i'm actually enough. and i'm really feeling the effects of that.
