bell hooks was right.

I feel like I’m being productive and progressing toward some end.  However, I also feel that I’ve lost a sense of what it is to be real, to feel, and to be rooted.  I feel like I’ve lost a lot of my expressive power.  Practicing my lines for The Vagina Monologues is interesting; I am another person telling her story.  It makes me wonder what my story is these days.  I’m not entirely sure anymore and though I have a bigger goal, I feel like I’m out of touch with things that are meaningful to me and meaningful to the world.  I want to get it back and as I sit here, typing, I feel like I’m the verge of discovering, like it’s on the tip of my tongue, how to do that.  But the full idea just won’t pop through.  Hopefully soon.
