What I think about at work

If an eyeball is subject to repeated trauma, the transparent cornea may scar over, causing loss of vision. That healthy clear tissue turns hazy or opaque, unable to let in light. I feel like the same has happened to my heart. It has scarred over so many times that it's unable to let in light.


The scar tissue, meant to be a defense mechanism from further harm, impairs the precious original function. And it doesn't go away without intervention.


To say that this is a tumultuous time in my life would be an understatement; this is probably as shaky of a time as last May, when I moved back home following graduation. Lately, I've retreated to solitude and self-evaluation in hopes of discovering peace.
