limbo

It's the same kind of limbo, the one in which you procrastinate because you don't want to do calculus homework.

It's not that you don't want to do it (the homework, in this particular analogy), it's because you've spent the last four hours getting a string of wrong answers. Becoming completely discouraged, you then spend the next five hours hanging out on Google+ complaining about it to everybody else. Then on a final desperate account, you discover that you managed to cram all that (doable) work anyway under half an hour (at about 1.15 a.m.)

You know what you should do but you don't, because the initial moves are the hardest. That's the concept of momentum after all. The heavier it is, the larger the force required. 

Math is hard, but it only took a couple of hours. 

What about something that had taken over 5 years? Is it going to continue like this for another 10, or 20 years? Are you going to stay in that kind of limbo, in this illusion of happiness? You can't stay like that for the rest of your life. You can't procrastinate, because the longer you wait, the more you suffer. Compromising transient, impermanent joy for something that could have been so much better. Why do you disappoint the person who brought you up? She knows what's best for you. But forget her, she's still human. Why do you disappoint God?

Do you even believe anymore? What happened to your faith?

Stop being in denial!!!!! We are all so mad at you because we love you so, so much.
