LOOK YONDER

twas 4 o clock, a very early, yet also quite late time to be out and about, when i found myself running through the suburbs of charlotte, the neighboring community, with nothing but a pair of american flagged boxers and a bedsheet tied around my neck, as if i was some kind of important super-hero. as i absentmindedly took place in these actions, i

stop making excuses. youre hiding from the truth in order to not have to confront reality!!!!!!

I think that society denies the truth because too many are afraid to handle the truth. I want to rebel constantly, and for a while I formulated plots on how to do so.

I realized that the best way is probably to pretend you're going with the flow, gain power and alot of rotten eggs, and let the subtle rebellion ensue.

precisely! i have this problem with not being able to keep the truth to myself and making people extremely uncomfortable because i can read them so well. sure this makes me different and whatever but it tends to make people want to...make space between themselves and i

i dont know why
but im guilty

[yourlungsonly6]

of course you are.

One reason. I think it's actually fairly simple...people are scared. Most have been brought up not to show their honest reactions. For fear they wont be accepted, or well liked... Whether they laugh when they wish to cry or follow the rules when they yearn to rebel. Society has poisened people to believe that if they don't mature in a perfect home, with perfect friends, follow the rules, and never screw up or cry once in awhile everything will be perfect. It sucks. And it's not true.

i think we agree on this ordeal chelsie. so now, i ask you, when i realize these harsh truths that tend to make people uneasy, should i speak them aloud or keep em to myself? tends to make people not like me because i ruin their self esteem and nice conversations

but we need a few people who arent lying to themselves right?

Well, Jeff...I ask you this, are you afraid? This is actually a huge subject for me because I don't usually speak my mind for fear that people won't like it. But honestly, if we have these thoughts, whether they're good or bad should we not say them? It sounds so simple...don't care what others think, but it's a natural instinct. People care. If it weren't true why would each person be wearing the same pants, shopping at the same stores, repeating the same slang? Acceptance. I believe people should stand up, speak their mind, and have no fear. I also know that it's incredibley hard. People sometimes need to hear certain things or they will experience no realization in life. No realization of who they are or how people honestly feel - even if it sucks sometimes. As long as it doesn't go too far and totally demolish people's self esteem they should hear it. Everyone's scared, why not begin to build individual confidence on top of it?

never seen this side of you chelsie. you are maturing into a near woman type thing:) i think were a bit more alike than i thought, except for you being smarter than me and all of that jazz.

i tend to take the truth too far and drown people in the their own rotten nature. we are pretty horrible creatures us humans. if i was an alien or something along those lines i think id have to destroy the human race just because their nature is so twisted and wrong...but...wait...i am a human. ami going against my nature in criticizing and mocking my own design?

well not really i guess because we are such crazy creatures that we actually have the capability to question our own being...so maybe it is perfectly normal and dandy for me to question such a thing...wow i could rant forever

maybe you understand what im saying though?

[idfuxinghateme2]

the truth hurts. sad as it is, maybe people are scared of being hurt.

you are crazy

[yourlungsonly6]
