A curious peace has fallen over me of late, in spite of my self-propelled, self-contained darkness.  I cannot say I am happy, but I have come to accept myself.
I am a monster.
I am a monstrous, vile and deeply flawed human being.  I am selfish and evil in the worst way.  If thinking evil thoughts were a crime, I would be hanged.  I have done terrible things and hurt people I love.  I have crossed dark lines and committed acts so foul as to be unspeakable.  I deserve to be alone in darkness forever.
And I accept that.
I am what I am.  I am a hideous monster, and I accept it, and strangely, it has brought me an odd tranquility.  I cannot say I am happy.  But looking in the mirror no longer horrifies me.  I cannot explain it, except to say that I accept what I am.
