Bio"My feelings dismay me. I so rarely control them. They are their own kingdom, too primitive to be a republic, and when they want to, they send their armies to batter me. My total self should include feeling but I do not know how to make a treaty with that warrior state. When I was growing up I rebelled against feeling and now my feelings rebel against me.
I separated myself from too much hurt. Even now, there is a close association in myself between feeling and pain. Logically I recognise that feeling is, often is, pleasure and delight. Nevertheless, at an instinctual level, at a level outside logic, feeling is pain.
I love badly. That is, too little or too much. I throw myself over an unsuitable cliff, only to reel back in horror from a simple view out of the window..."
-from Gut Symmetries by Jeanette Winterson
(I have multiple journals. This one is semi-devoted to infatuation and frustration.)
