Leave This, Read That: "Trying To Figure Out What's Important" by Ryan O'Connell

I've been gone for awhile. For good reason. My grandmother is in town. My best friend is out of town. My thoughts are still untangling themselves. I've fallen in love (twice) in the past week to people that can't, just can't. I got a job. I'm planning my life. My new house will have a closet that is organized and fresh flowers. I'm sounding crazy.

On a recent trip to Chicago, two very close friends of mine, who had not seen me in awhile approached me, "do you really have a blog called 'Alone...Forever'"? Yes, yes I do. I doubt they've had the opportunity to read any of this, because if they did, maybe they would understand what I need/want (?) them to understand.

So, leave this and read that. 'That' being a post by Ryan O'Connell on Thought Catalog, as O'Connell puts it "Share yourself with everyone and you’ll find yourself feeling connected to no one."
