still searching.. and being hounded



From Lucy Grealy's Autobiography of a Face:

"I used to think truth was eternal, that once I knew, once I saw, it would be with me forever, a constant by which everything else could be measured. I know now that this isn’t so, that most truths are inherently unretainable, that we have to work hard all our lives to remember the most basic things." This is why I blog. To help me remember the truth and maybe to discover it anew.

Yeah, it's funny how everything is clear until the first time you blink. And then the topic of the great truth you just knew is even unclear. But you know that you knew and you'll know again, right? I keep hoping, anyway!
