Thoughts -- Once Again

I was raised in a Christian family--So I knew the bible decently well. Well, every now and then, I would remember this verse from Psalm 23:4 "As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

This verse never comforted me. Every time I hear or think about this verse, I think, "I do fear evil and I'm not comforted." Especially right now. My brother just left for college -- he seemed to be the glue that held my family together. Although my brother rarely said, "I love you" to me, I know we have a strong brother/sister relationship. So, for me, it's really been hard to let him go. As soon as my brother left, I got pretty depressed. Added onto that, my father seems to love playing stupid and doing things to hurt me mentally and emotionally. It's not like he hasn't done it before, he's just doing it more now. I'm really sick of explaining to my dad how he's hurting me and what he's doing. It's not like he's mentally incompetent; he's a really intelligent guy. He doesn't need help to know how it is acceptable to treat your daughter.

But anyway, I just feel really depressed. Not suicidal or anything, just like I don't care about anyone, or anything at the moment. I usually love playing my guitar or piano... But when I try, and it's like my passion for music just vanished--dissipated into thin air. That makes me even more sad; knowing that the only thing I really cared about doesn't matter a bit anymore.

As you can probably tell, I have no idea where I'm going with this... I guess it's just a little rant.


Oh, and if you actually read this whole thing, here's a picture. And even if you didn't read any of it... Enjoy. It's my eye in black and white.
