Zielschmerz

dictionaryofobscuresorrows:

n. the exhilarating dread of finally pursuing a lifelong dream, which requires you to put your true abilities out there to be tested on the open savannah, no longer protected inside the terrarium of hopes and delusions that you created in kindergarten and kept sealed as long as you could, only to break in case of emergency.

I love this blog. It makes me feel less weird. To borrow words form John Green “It always shocked me when I realized that I wasn’t the only person in the world who thought and felt such strange and awful things.” Anyway, I read this one and it reminded me of Tangled. Eugene and Rapunzel were experiencing some serious Zielschmerz.
