Trying to Learn to Be Less Alive

I'm feeling melancholy today, and since there are a couple of us feeling the same way I decided to post a beautiful, melancholy song from Ani Difranco.

I am out here studying stones
Trying to learn to be less alive
Using all of my will
To keep very still
Still even on the inside

I sometimes think what a blessing it would be to just not care that I will never see what my child looks like, but I know I don't live in a vacuum and not caring about that would mean changing who I am at the core.
