i think i've realized what my problem is: i care too much.

i care too much about things that most choose to ignore, and i get tangled up in everyone elses webs when i should be figuring out how to detangle my own. i care too much about people, and too much about potential situations, and too much about nonexistent truths. i've tried caring less, but then i feel like a bad person. there's no in between. i'm stuck feeling too much.

maybe it's a good thing. maybe it means i have a big heart or some other optimistic bullshit. who knows. i sure don't.
