Alright, so I don't know if any of you seen the post from Vilification and me or not, but it was called "For Serious People", obviously, dedicated to people who are too serious, and it's kind of a stab at a broader subject that seems to plague me alot anymore. Humanity has been given nothing but options and opportunity, and we embrace the things that shatter worlds and ruin civilizations.

The reason for this is, people are constantly over-analyzing things. What ever happened to taking things at face value. Why are we constantly searching for a hidden meaning in everything that is said or read?

I blame the lack of trust people have for one another as well as their lack of trust in themselves. It took me a long time to figure out who I am. Consequently, I am still looking, but I have learned something:

Holding back from what you want to do or what makes you who you are is not good for you. You begin to question who you want to be or who others want you to be, so you lie to yourself as well as others. Others see this and they don't believe you and maybe they even question themselves.

All I'm saying is this: Take a fucking chill pill, breath, learn to laugh at yourself and not just others, cry if it makes you feel better, eat a pint of icecream when your depressed. If your fat and happy, then fuck the skinny bitches that say things behind your back, if your anorexic and it makes you happy fuck everyone who is trying to tell you it's wrong. You decide for yourself what you think is best for you. Whether you cut, burn, or mutilate yourself to cope, whether or not you have OCD, ADD, ADHD, whether or not you are Bi-Polar I, II, or a manic-depressant, if it makes you who you are then embrace it and embrace the people who accept you for your positive traits and don't even falter for the negatives.

I am a fucked up individual, yes, I know.
Call me what you will...
Emo because my outlook on life
Scene because I'm a social-metro
Punk because I scream "fuck the corprate world"
White trash because I came from nothing
Fag because the way I think
Slut because I lack a substantial relationship
Asshole because I don't give a fuck what you think about me
Poser because I fit more than one of your titles

I was a Jock, I was a Stoner, I did almost any drugs I could get my hands on, I attempted suicide, I was a straight-A student, and everyone of the things I listed above. Well know this. All your titles do is let me know that you think you're better than me.

The funny thing is, that is how you will be defined, by a title, while I...

I will be just me.

In closing, I have the following to say:

FTW, the world is mine.
Fuck it, it's just life.
and last but not least...

"LIVE FAST, DIE YOUNG"

I always love the question people seem to have to bring up upon meeting ... "What do you do?" and by what you answer they label you.(So you're a _____)

I think of a poem by DH Lawrence, about just being a man, and that is enough. Odd how we find comfort in rigidity and deny diversity and exploration..at least in my opinion of the society with which I co-exist.

Tisk tisk. You are not a madman, you are you. And the rant? I agree and I don't agree, on some. I think we should accept ourselves, and others, with the negative, but I also tend to think it better to try and...I don't want to say improve because that imp
