Thank you! I feel like there's that stage where first your parents are god then they're just annoying and then they're people but then my mom keeps being a human that I kind of don't respect because she's kind of judgmental and -ist and actively working to make peoples' lives harder and it rubs me the wrong way. Like I can have compassion for her because she's a human and furthermore she is a human who has taken care of me and loves me, but I can't respect her and it's very weird.
Yeah, that's what I keep telling myself. There was a poem somewhat to that effect by jjhunter that showed up on my reading page the other day, and it hit me right where I needed it, and I want to be able to do that too. It was a really strangely but wonderfully cyclical moment.
I'm planning on going to school to become a therapist's assistant. It'll take only four years to earn, and then I can be paying the bills and hopefully have sometime for writing and music. Long term I'd kind of like to also train to be a therapeutic riding instructor. My mom wants me to go local for college but I don't know. Thanks so much for the encouragement! I've been counting down the time to being a legal adult for a while and now it seems pretty much tolerable to wait just a little more. :)
