I recognize that I am overly sensitive. I let my emotions get to me far too easily, and too often for that matter. I overthink things and develop neuroticisms that are ridiculously out of proportion. I am impulsive and indecisive at the same time. I want everything, yet nothing. But, for what it's worth, I do give a damn about the state of the world; shit, the state of the guy walking down the street. People interest me deeply, and I am always in the mood for getting to know someone new and listening to their story. It's hard for me to think about only one thing at any given time, my mind is everywhere, and I'm constantly trying to catch up to it- which sounds strange, but I think it is apart from my body a lot of the time:) I will be pysically doing something, but always dreaming. I hope that most everyone is the same in this respect, not because I want to- or even care about whether or not- I "fit in," but because dreams are the essence of happiness. Without the embracing of dreams, we begin to lose ourselves, before even realizing that it is possible to find who we really are, and will never grow- be it emotionally or spiritually, even intellectually. Much of our lives are wasted trying to conform to what society tells us we should be, how we should be...when really, all we need to do is be quiet enough to hear ourselves speak...then we'll understand the true beauty of living. My only wish for life is happiness...which sounds vague, as well it should. I do not want to map my life out year by year...dictating what I should be doing when. I'm just being who and how I want to be, finding happiness in where I am, wondering where I'll be, and trying to make decisions that will put a smile on my face that will last through indefinite tomorrows. That's life.
