Well, it's late, and here I am, once again. I seem to always find myself sitting here late at night, with no one to talk to. I used to be able to sit up all night, talking with someone who cared.

Perhaps it's not becoming what you like, but liking what you've become? And why do we feel the need to reinvent ourselves? Do we think that by changing ourselves, others will like us more, but more importantly, will we like ourselves more? I think you have to love yourself before you can love anyone else, and that means you not only have to accept others, but yourself as well. I mean, Madonna is constantly "reinventing" herself, and is there anyone who's more of a media whore than she is? Is that what we want to turn into, whores? I hope not. I'm happy with who I am, and I can live with that. I just don't think all that many other people can say the same.
