"Watch the basin drain as your life lines wane, and you can't explain as your friends complain, 'You've caused all this pain and you proudly shame your whole families name.'
Mother, I can tell what you've been thinking...once there was a power you were wielding and now I've hit the mark, stabbing at the dark, and I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars." - Passion Pit
I've been really discouraged in my blogging lately, so I had a hard time finding a direction for this post. As I sat there, staring at the white blank screen, the cursor flashing and taunting me, I had a lot of questions floating around in my head: "Am I all those things they say I am? Should I stop talking about my personal life and insecurities? Should I just talk about clothes? What is the point of this if I don't truly express myself?" I felt so lost, so I looked to the pictures for inspiration. The first word that popped into my head was "lines." Unintentionally, lines dominated this photo shoot. There were lines on my dress, lines on the gate of the mansion, and, as always, the beautiful lines photo boyfriend captures in all of his photos.
I did a quick search for song lyrics with the word "lines" in them. The first one that caught my eye was from a song called Little Secrets by Passion Pit. I've never listened to this band before, but the lyrics of this song seemed really appropriate to my life right now. The song speaks of life lines waning, so I decided to Google "life lines." Palmistry websites came up in the search. I know nothing about palm reading, so I read some out of curiosity. I learned there are 3 main lines on the palm: the heart line, the head line, and the life line. I looked down at my own palm. I curiously have 2 separate life lines and both are connected to my head line. One is short and one extends all the way down my palm. I took this to represent the two very different lives I've led up to this point. The first line is the shorter one and is thin and shallow. The second line is much thicker and deeper. Again, I think this represents the different ways I lived my life before and after my separation. The fact that my life line and head line touch means that "I am a sensitive person with deep emotional feelings." Yep, I'd say that accurately describes me, sometimes to my detriment. Here are some other things I learned about myself through my palm:
"You have good taste and enjoy expensive indulgences. You like expensive clothes, but there are times when you seriously risk spending more than you earn." Hello? This palm reading thing is getting down right creepy!
"It would be better if you learn to relax and smile more." Wow! You guys are always telling me this. Apparently my palm is trying to tell me this too!
"You have an artistic and sensitive approach to life. Your good-nature means you can be hurt by selfish and greedy people." And now we've come full circle... My lack of direction for this post led me to the reason why I was struggling. I'm too sensitive and allow people's opinions to hurt me. I found the answer to all my questions in the palm of my hand. I need to stop questioning myself and start writing.
I had fun at this website: http://www.sailor-games.com/FortuneT/hands.html
Give it a try and let me know what it says about you!
