Sometimes, I just want to walk away from life...Not ending it, of course, but just...take a break from it.
I don't understand why life absolutely loves to throw me into one mess after another, and it acts as if it's certain that I will be able to withstand them all. Well, the truth is, I am still fragile despite the calluses that have sprouted on my heart. I still want to be protected. I still want to be treasured as if I were young. In times of trouble, I still want someone to hold my hand and say, "It's okay, I've got you."
But life doesn't happen that away, of course. And I am frustrated.
Completely off-topic.I just realized my beloved Matsushima Nanako is sporting eyebags already! I happened to catch an episode of the 4th season of the JDrama "Emergency Room 24 Hours," and I was literally stonified when I saw those eyes. She's still lovely, in a more mature and sophisticated way. But I think i just never expected her to grow old, even after giving birth to two daughters! Sigh...I still love her and her acting, but that was a harsh reminder that life just doesn't loosen its grip on anyone...
Here is a very beautiful pic of her in her prime days...
