Blood and Principle.

Not as grand as it sounds, I’m afraid.

There was a small blood stain on my pillow this morning, and even a few specks on the under pillow. It was nothing like enough to be explainable as a nose bleed, and I don’t get nose bleeds anyway. It was about what you’d expect of a modest scratch, but I can’t find any scratches – hands, face, nothing. Maybe it was somebody else’s blood. Not a nice thought.

On which note, I was persuaded to re-examine my ideals when I woke up, especially with regard to the effect they have on other people. I can apologise for them, but they’re not going anywhere. They’re mine. They’re who I am. I do need to be something, don’t I?
