Isn't Christina really great?

I'm updating because it feels especially like Spring today, and I felt like writing about it, however, now that I'm here, there's not much to say. It's Spring! And yesterday evening the sky was yellow.

So, I suppose instead, I am going to write about how I value myself. I use two methods, and they both contrast each other, and I am therefore never completely satisfied. The first way is other people's judgement. If I feel that other people think I am good, I am therefore good. An example of this would be my schoolyears: if I perforemed well in school, others would approve, and their approval would mean that I was "enough". However, method #2 is founded on the philosophical urgency that is life itself. It is that life is here right now, and I should act on my impulsive desires right now.

And the moral of that is--Be what you would seem to be--or if you'd like it put more simply--Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.

"'Well, I never heard it before,' said the Mock Turtle; 'but it sounds uncommon nonsense.'"
