Jennie, my sister, told me two days ago that her father (ok, my father too) is marrying Cheryl Phillips. Her father apparently proposed on the 3 month anniversary of our mother's death. Jennie is really upset. I am not. I am upset that my father didn't tell me. I am upset that my father has cut off any place I can go home to.
However, two days (3 days?) prior to her father's proposal to Cheryl, Jennie agreed to invite two boys into her home. I know one of their names: Crack Payton. The other kid I call, in the darkest recesses of my mind and heart, retard. Sure, look at his pictures on my sister's blog: http://www.best4everfamily.blogspot.com. That's a retarded kid.
I almost deleted the above because I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. But I'm tired of that. I've decided that for tonight, I can ignore both my sympathy and empathy. And if you don't know the difference, then you should take a picture with the retarded kid. And Fuck You For Judging Me.
You know what I have to deal with? Every day I wake up and live with what/how I think. I don't need God, I don't need two new kids, and I don't need a new wife. If I did need God, guess what I wouldn't need: something to fill a hole. Because that's what God is supposed to do for you.
Dad: It's pretty significant that god has always followed the path of least resistance for you. Keep on moving on.
Jennie: I wouldn't need to grab two more broken kids just to prove that I could fix them, simply because God can't fix you..
Mom: I wouldn't die just to fuck me, nor would I say that God wants me to die. That's what you said. If that is your god, then I was right in reviling him..
Tim: I would stop hating everyone so much, because it kills you a little bit, every day. Even though every hour proves you right...every minute proves you right.
Tim: I know you are dying to love, and by loving you think you are slowly dying. That's not true.
Tim: You don't have the open heart of your sister, nor do you have the closed heart of your father. So you have to figure out how to be.
Tim: You don't have the belief of either you father or your dead mother: that simply means you are stronger. Your love means more, because it's only yours
I don't need a new mother. I don't need two retarded nephews. I don't need a father. I don't need anything.
But I want my sister. I really do. And I will take all of your choices in stride, because I know you will take all of mine in stride.
I don't need you in my life Jennie.
But I want you there.
I love you.
Tim
