New Developments
Ah, this is an odd post. I’ve received a well-meaning email (no comments though) concerned about my sense of self-esteem.
In truth, I find it very difficult to talk about myself in a positive. I’m, I suppose you could say, very new to culture and really interacting with anybody. If I haven’t said it already, my father was not the most caring man in the world. He was a brilliant man, but he was absorbed in his work and, I suppose, considered me a failure. I ran away from home not too long ago, I decided I wanted to do something with my life, and not spend the rest of my time on this earth wasting away in some castle.
I know it’s a problem, but it’s one that I’m trying to deal with. The email suggested therapy, but in reality I do not think I could burden any practitioner of mental health with my story, nor am I so far gone in my melancholy as to warrant it. I’m here to leave my problems behind, not dredge them up again under hypnosis.
There’s an entire city here for me to explore, I have found employment, I’ve made a friend, I might make more in the next few weeks. I think that’s a good start, don’t you?
