Everything is a pattern.

Also:

I just want to draw forever. It's the best way I can say the things I want to say. The lines and shapes I can make with a pen are more expressive than my face or words could ever be. I get so involved with the things that I'm working on, sometimes I wonder what sort of effect that has on my personality.

My last girlfriend resented the fact that I love my work as much as I do. It was competition for her, and I wonder if other people see it that way too. I feel defined by the things I create, because they are extensions of me. There's aspects of me in every stupid little drawing or polygon in space.

I'm not working, I'm just being myself.

Right now, being myself is really stressful, but I'm feeling good and finding ways to get through it. I have a lot of stories to tell and things to show, but it's taking me a frustratingly long time to do that.

I took some time today to just relax and tell myself that I'm doing okay, and it really helped. Anyone know any good ways to de-stress and try to equal out a bit?
