It find it impossible to know what I'm like these days - I am so aware that tomorrow I could be the opposite person from today!

This is an interesting collection of thoughts.

God....how true.
I think we're all guilty of these thoughts, and of the things you mentioned. Its normal ;)

Stephen, this is scary! There are so many of these which ring true for me.

It would be interesting to take each line and write a poem on it or, better still, starting with it. What a challenge!
