In pieces but sort of okay in new unknown territory. Avoiding numbness the best I can. 'First time I've listend to the Miles Davis album in months without feeling like killing myself. It (Kind of Blue) was one we used to listen to a lot when things were very warm and good.

Thank you for the hugs and good wishes all.

I'm the same with the music, as there is a lot I can't listen to at the moment without feeling really crap about the situation without them. I've made new play lists of music we didnt listen to together. I'm glad you managed to listen to your album again.

I understand the association of certain music with our relationships, and really anything that we do or experience while listening, especially if one becomes a prompt for the other. I am sad that Kind of Blue has gained a difficult connotation for you.

It is (at least for now) my utterly #1 best album of all time. I wish for you to be able to uncouple the music that is meaningful from painful memories. I have no idea how to do this, but I do know that music has a healing power to it.

The attendant conditions that attenuate this effect are mysterious and subjective, so it’s not like a step by step intervention that necessarily generates an effect. That said, I believe that great music is more likely to soothe a broken heart than anything else that one can do on their own.

Right now I’m feeling all the feelings. I can’t say it’s good or bad, nor is it both or neither. That would make sense and I feel like my state is not able to be described without internal contradictions. I’m going through moods that don’t seem to have a pattern or a cause.

I would much rather have my sh*t together because it’s making forward looking decisions impossible for me.

That, I am afraid, is the essence of my insanity. But insanity doesn’t have to hurt all the time.

I'm taking back all my favourite music from its connotation, its possession, by the bad and good aspects of my relationship.

I agree with you as to that album. If it's if not the best album, then among the top 5. it's hereby declared to be returned to association with healing powers. Perhaps, (sorry for going off on tangents) it's like praying to Apollo and Asclepius.

That’s so great to hear! Sounds like you are making leaps of progress!!

I had written a whole philosophical treatise about why Kind of Blue is actually better than the greatest symphonies, but I deleted it for brevity. This was appropriate, because my thesis was that brilliant art is something that hits us at a level that words cannot capture.

Pretty ironic, and self defeating that I had written 7 paragraphs about why this is the case! 🤪

so proud for cooking brunch and prep veggies to prep dinner for next wk, I'm sure I'll be coming late from work and feel exhausted. i should start saving money so I could hire outsources to do daily tasks and not a full time maid. I just hate feeling exhahsted after work and chores, too exhausted to enjoy and my kitties need attention cus I get migraines also when I relax. I've forward doc apt for this, I'm glad my pms isnt a problem rn. Nano been begging to bring him back out to the park.

Why weekend just gone in 2 secs.
 
Still putting my fence up. Feel quite depressed today and tired. Have written an email to my missing person, where I'm not sure if I should send it or not. So, I'm feeling depressed about that. I'm still having these nightmares, but I do like getting up in the morning and seeing my progression on my tattoo's that I've started to do. Without wanting to identify myself by describing them too much, they are quite large and awesome, so it's like a bit of a reset in the morning after the dreams to look in the mirror and see them, and it's like wow.
