Sober Thoughts

• I am working on a novel. I don’t know how to classify it, but it touches on the dichotomy of being both human and a spirit being. It also brings to life the spirits we face of lust, sexual perversion, envy, greed, etc.
  




• I think having gone through a divorce has taught me how to think and act like a man in terms of being a survivor and go-getter, but I am still very feminine. I suppose I am a study of contradictions. It’s a cumbersome reality, but it’s my reality.
  




• Sometimes I wish I had a man around simply to rub cocoa butter on my back at night. I am pretty good at doing it myself, but it takes a bit of strategy and flexibility.
  




• My father worries about me not being married. I wish he wouldn’t worry about me so much, but it’s what parents do.
  




• I am convinced I was born in the wrong decade. LOL
  




• I’m an INTJ female. INTJ females are rare, comprising only approximately 1-3% of the world's population. I am moody, blunt, honest, deceptively cold and aloof, but I am also very protective of the people I love and would quietly go without to make sure they have.
  




• I don’t like weaknesses in myself or other people, but I accept them.
  




• I don’t respond to much of anything. I must analyze the situation to verify what I think and feel.
  




• Music soothes my soul. Beautiful things make me smile. Love calms me.
  




• There is something so surreal about knowing the voice of God.
