You do not have power over me. I don't recall a time ever giving permission to judge how I act. I know I'm not hurting anyone. I know what I'm doing. I know it's good for me. I don't need you to treat me like I'm your project. When I mind my business, manage your own. Do you think I care if I don't please you? Definitely not. The fact that you feel privileged to tell me when I should or shouldn't be doing something irks me. Your presence is nothing but a nuisance. I see your eyes so heavily fixated on trying to hypnotize me into bending to your will; the only thought that runs my mind is how much of an insane person you really are. Don't try to nitpick how I am when I can easily unravel what type of person you are. Don't dissect me, and when your entrails can be seen from a mile. Don't fix me when you got a few screws loose. What I'm trying to say is, don't control my life; control yours. We all just have one for a reason. 

It's not that I don't want to be with you, it's just that, I don't want to be the first one to give my heart. I know you're my lover when passion outways fear.

You know what's absolutely fantastic and terrifying at the same time, the fact that you won't fully know what impact you made in someone's life. I think it's important to be kind, that way the sun shines bright. 

I used to think I was really sad, but then I realized my life was just so boring. There's definitely joy in variety. 

Today I am proud I put forth such a welcoming and exuberant demeanour. I  felt warmth; everyone I interacted with felt like the sun, radiating positivity like UV rays of happiness. I think the catalyst of why I had such an amazing day is that I smiled as much as I could.  I felt like it really went a long way in making people's day. It's fantastic to be able to make people's days a slight bit better. What I learned from today is that a small act of showing kindness unlocks this sort of greatness in people.  

There's this person I more and more have become attracted to.  The natural reaction would be to woo, to charm, to become a focal point of their every gaze. As much as I want to do all this, I know well enough to test the waters. Love isn't something you drive for head first. It's something you prepare for, like catching a fish. You need to consider all sorts of factors to make sure you are able to make the catch and make sure that the catch stays on the line. I can't just give all of myself to uncertainty; my heart can't handle that. 

From someone else's perspective, I'm probably the most well-adjusted, well-liked kind of person. Little do they know I'm like a bottle afloat in the middle of the ocean, drifting, waiting for someone to come along and enjoy the messages I carry inside. I'm as lost and hopeful as any other person. Furthermore, I get scared that at any waking moment, I'm not above water.
