...arrg...wait.

I'm not freaking out. At all.

Not about life. Or career. Or spirituality. Or..well anything.

I never get anxious about getting older. It happens. Can't help it. But I always would freak out about whether or not I'm successful, I'm doing everything I should be doing/need to be doing/want to be doing/[FILL_BLANK_HERE]

I still have things to deal with, but..I dunno, I don't feel like I've stepped into a vertigo or some deep emotional void. I'm okay. I'm smiling. (There's proof out there now.)

But, I'm supposed to be giddy with some sort of emotions leading up to my birthday, but I can't think of any.

Care to come up with things for me to think about? My thoughts are my own, but my influences come from those around me. Besides, this could be fun.

So, what states of emo should I have in my head? It can be anything. Could be funny, serious, weird, etc. I'm curious. Please and thank you. :)

"Never value the advantages derived from anything involving breach of faith, loss of self-respect, hatred, suspicion, or execration of others, insincerity, or the desire for something which has to be veiled and curtained. One whose chief regard is for his own mind, and for the divinity within him and the service of its goodness, will strike no poses, utter no complaints, and crave neither for solitude nor yet for a crowd. Best of all, his life will be free from continual pursuings and avoidings. He does not care whether his soul in its mortal frame shall be his to possess for a longer or a shorter term of years; this very moment, if it be the hour for his departure, he will step forth as readily as he performs any other act that can be done in self-respecting and orderly fashion. No other care has he in life but to keep his mind from straying into paths incompatible with those of an intelligent and social being."
- Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, III.7.

P.S.: Okay, not really -- but you wouldn't have objected if I'd called you a "babe", which is so very nearly the same word. %-}
