Yearning..

To yearn..ack yearning.

Mariam-webster defines the word yearn as "to long persistently, wistfully". So..my question is..have you ever yearned for something? Yearned so long for it..then wondered if all your effort was worth it? Wondered should you be putting all that energy into it so early when you could be spending that energy elsewhere?

Is yearning like obsession? That you obsess to the point you become obsessive compulsive? It's like wanting that awesome pair of shoes at the store you've been waiting to go on sale but they never do..eventually your mind gets over them because you've reached your yearning saturation..or your obsession has subsided..Does that mean that, that yearn may come back after a while or that obsession may hit again, or is it really gone forever?

I'm a Ranter

I'm a ranter and proud to be one. If I can't get it off my chest by talking to my friends I write it all up. I'd rather talk it out or write it out, rather than spit it out (rant) to the person/thing I'm ranting about. I avoid giving a lot of pain to the world around me this way...Surely everyone understands this...but at times I wonder. It's a part of me..always has been and always will be. To me I'd rather rant here or to a friend than to hurt the designated person by my ranting.
