I am changing up my "odd thoughts" and turning them into "first drafts". What better way to view the metamorphosis? Maybe it will be a Luna Moth, or maybe a Mud Dauber. My penchant for wordy mouthfuls will certainly do me in, but at least I can share how I make them more digestible. ...Not the best metaphoric segue, so it's a good thing this isn't a recipe blog.

Original Instagram Story:
I think one of the worst feelings may be the feeling of being stuck.
Stuck between hope & fear...
Stuck between the known & unknown...
Stuck between complacence & contentment...
Stuck in ambivalence...
Stuck in idleness...
Stuck in industry...
I fear failure almost as much as I fear success
and every deathday puts me back into place
Like a record made to break
I think one of the worst feelings is feeling broken and on repeat.
