I am not good enough. Are you good enough? She was worried. was he scared? We judge ourselves. They all have flaws. I am tired. I can’t sleep. If only I could stop this chatter. Let’s turn to right. Is this pillow too high? My back hurts. Maybe I’ll be paralyzed by tomorrow…

My generation came to this world with great potential, but we were blinded by a thick mental fog. We need achievements and titles. We need to hide behind high ideals. We are constantly scared of not being good enough.That’s why we need to prop up ourselves. We suspect we aren’t worth much without our attachments.

The characters in my stories can’t accept things as they are. They are in a constant search for something more. That’s why they are always destined to be something less. My characters can’t break out of the chatter I create for them, but the readers, maybe they can.
