Let's be honest. You let yourself be pulled in because it felt good to be wanted, needed. But then it went too far, as projected images always do.

Healing for me is being able to sit next to the butcher and say 'Yes, I’m sitting next to the butcher now,' instead of saying 'there is no butcher'.
Tori Amos
Image
I'm not somebody that gets played a lot at parties and weddings. I mean, you know, you mention my name and you get an eye roll, until, of course, you're jumping off a bridge.
Tori Amos
Image
I can't believe that I would keep, keep you from flying And I would cry a thousand more if that's what it takes to sail you home.
Tori Amos
Image
I hurt myself today to see if I could feel. I hurt myself, you said to try to make him feel. So I hurt myself again to see if he'd see me. I hurt myself again and no, he never could see me.

As the sun sets, we've all had those nights where you question your choices and where your life is going.

If you're a lame brain, then you're a lame brain. I can't help that.

And is it right, butterfly, they like you better framed and dried?
Tori Amos

I can see how the young girls really get hurt when their moms are critical, or vice versa when they're overly critical of their moms. It can be so painful.

Your worst enemies are made when you ignore people. Those boys in America who shot dead classmates recently, didn't do that because they woke up with a positive self image that morning and then felt like slaughtering their friends.
