We are all going through our own battles. That much is a fact. I don't care if your rich, poor, educated, uneducated, successful or failing, every single person fights a hidden battle, after all, the only people we are "truly" open with, is ourselves. Me, I have a want, a desire, to do myself, and others, proud. On a normal day, I work as a manager, I help people as much as I can, and I really feel like I do a good job... The man I should be, 24/7...but I'm not. In my want to be "successful", my dark, deeply hidden personality, sees opportunity. I spend at least 2 days a week being a loose cannon, doing things I know I shouldn't, but by god, do I feel free. I don't feel the need to impress others, to stand out, to be the best I can to society's standards, no, I am truly myself. Granted, dangerous, stupid, risky... But free. We are not all who we appear to be. I find myself when I am alone, and I am my true self, when I am alone. The face people see is a positive identity, a shining light in society, but in truth, I am keeping myself caged, because society cannot accept who I really am, and this... this keeps me lonely. I know there will be others out there who know exactly what I mean. This is me letting you know... You are not alone...

He is a man who has what he needs. A good job, friends and family who care for him, high prospects... but he throws it all away. A drink addiction, a gambling addiction, a drug addiction...he is a fool who doesn't know how good he has it. His future is bleak, but it should be bright. He knows what he needs to do, but falls down everytime he tries. No self control, no care, no want... he needs to change for his own benefit.

You must accept that you are only human like the rest of us . I have a cousin she around my age and has been spoilt her whole . Haha her parents even put her own little name on their number plate . She makes out she can't work because of an accident she was in years ago but the whole family know that she is just lazy and throws a tantrum if she can't have life the way she wants it . Shes 26 might I add . And then we have someone like you who is just being themselves living life going hard wen you don't have to at all but that's what's in your essence. I admire people like you because you say and live it how it is.. I myself do this . I've done a lot of stupid dangerous things but as you said in your post by god am I FREE! thanks my friend for reminding me of that . Hope you get through ok.
ReplyI really appreciate this reply. It's good to know there are others out their with the same view as I have. Like you say, we are free, and there is no other way to have it. Thank you for your kind words.
ReplyThat was me who replied . You're very welcome. And thank you also
ReplyGet the help if you're privileged enough to afford it.
ReplyAm I priveliged enough to get "help"? Yes. Do I want it? No. "Help" labels us; gives others understanding as to who and what WE are. I am petrified of getting "help" because I don't belive it will do me any good. I don't want to walk around with a label. I know I have a "problem", and by god, I love it. It differs me from most others, singles me out of the crowd. I see it in my daily life. People don't quite understand me, and what I do, but they like it. I can, and do, make them laugh, make them happy, try to put a smile on their faces, and it works, because I don't have a label on me saying I have "this problem", or "that problem", as far as anyone is concerned, I am just me, and I'd love to keep it that way. As soon as somebody tells you that you have this problem, or that problem, people start to see you in a different light, just naturally, I'd like to avoid that at all cost :)
