he said there was freedom in this village

lost my job of three years today in a field I’ve been working in for 10 years.  they didn’t like that i was too independent and had a hard time falling in line.  i don’t want to go back to that or anything like it.  i don’t want to work for anyone other than myself anymore. i have the confidence. i have the saavy.  i have the will.  i do NOT want another job — I want a LIFE.  so, it’s time to make it without my “crutch” job.  after 10 years of honing my talents, i feel ready.  i have to be ready.  i’ve been bitching and moaning about my freedom and lack thereof for over a year.  now hear it is — urgent and uncut.  if the question is do or die, the answer is obvious.  thank god, i’m confident for the first time in my life that no matter what, i’ll be okay.  my words give me my power. now.  first things first. i can cry later.

“When my friend reads this, the contempt will begin.” - Afton

"Never noticed your eyes Hate your smile You have a gap I prefer you didn’t Not very smart Your confidence a charade Your insecurities a bother Even more when you pretend to acknowledge Your attempts to placate me Your charm is shallow Driven by an insatiable desire to please Your size is average No impression there Your sex lacks in precision Fascination unexists But I love you In only the most simplest of ways."

tumblrbot asked: WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT ON YOUR PLANET? my deathplace.  just to make sure it’s sufficient.  you know we writers are all about the statement.

“If one of these thick-lipped, wet, black nights while I’m out walking, I find freedom in this village. If I can take it with my tribe I’ll bring you here. And you will never notice the absence of rice and bridesmaids.” - Essex Hemphill
