I am in a really weird mood right now, I just watched a very thought-provoking movie last night, and I thought I would try and be thought-provoking myself. I decided that i should be a poet, so I cranked a few out this morning. Yes, I know that the majority either won't make any sense, or they will be intensely un-gratifying. Either way, I don't care. This is for me. (mostly, its kind of for everyone too though, otherwise I would put it all online)
The danger of having a good life is that you never have the chance to know your true self... The part of you that only comes out at the brink of existence. You can truly know someone by how they act in their last moments.Your inner self is all that should matter to you, so why not bring it out?
Release me from my snare! I do not want this life anymore! I don't deserve this pain and anguish, nobody does. How can I get another life? I can't. It's just not a possibility. I say to myself, "I want to be like those happy people over there." I won't, and can't find any solace in that prospect, because they are saying the exact same thing about me.
You can't always get what you want. What you want isn't always the best thing for you. What you need is arbitrary compared to a necessity. The necessities you can live without determine who you are as a person. Few people find out who they really are. It's too bad we try so hard to get what we want...
Why is it so important to be important? Importance is only important for importance sake. Why should I be important? How do I know if I am important? Does self-importance even matter? Do I have to be important to myself in order to be important to someone else? Or do I first have to be important to someone else in order to be important with my self?
A storm is coming. A storm that will swallow the children, and I will deliver them from the kingdom of pain. I will deliver the children back to their doorsteps; I'll send the monsters back to the underground. I'll send them back to a place where no one else can see them.
Being better can only go so far. If you were always better, then you would eventually become perfect without the ability to be better. Is it then possible to be the best? "There is always someone better than you." This statement is forever and true to life. Therefore, nobody can ever be the best. So why do we try to achieve that which is un-achievable? We see those that are better, and wish to reach that level of 'being better'. Too bad there's somebody better.
The most motivational thing a person can do for others is to be self-motivated.
