Sticky

I've noticed that I use the word 'sticky' a lot in my writing. Life is just a sticky thing in general. It sticks me to people, to places, makes change hard, and situations tangled. Were I to try to move away, to go astray, stickiness would be there to pull me back, all the harder. Life and all the fumbling, tumbling, messy awkwardness about it. Sticky. My sticky life.
