Currently listening to: The One That Got Away – Katy Perry (Director’s Cut)
I was so into this song when it first came out and now the director’s cut, which is like an extended version has come out recently and I can’t help but have this song on an endless loop again.
Sad thing is over the years, I’ve become disenchanted with Katy Perry… but not Diego Luna. He was masterful in Narcos: Mexico.
Tryin’ to get behind the closed doors to your soul
Why’d you have to end the show
We had such a beautiful plot
There was still more story to go
A coworker asked me the other day if I had any children. I told her, “No.” And then she gave me a look of pity. I’ve seen that look many times, whenever people hear my answer.
I clarify with people that I simply do not desire to have children. Then comes the gasp, followed by, “Children are such blessings. You’ll change your mind.”
Nah, I won’t. I’ve been steadfast in this belief since junior high. I never had that maternal instinct that other girls seemed to naturally carry, and for a long time, I thought I was abnormal.
I often times tell people that I’m the baby, they become either appalled or, in the case of my exes, they just look at me with pleading eyes, silently wishing I’d change my mind and start a fam with them.
Sometimes, I wonder though… if they were more emotionally mature with endless amounts of energy and patience… and if I felt emotionally safe with that person, would it be plausible?
