Its Dark in here...

Life, I've noticed, is all about what you can do for the world you live in. Your skills your talents, even your down falls are what determines what and sometimes who surrounds you in your life. People flock together all over one maybe two things in common with each other. Now depending on who your parents told you to be when you were a kid it may be music, sports, school, or the lack of a direction that connects you with these people.
None of this is permanent. Interests change, skills become better or start to lack, people eventually always move on and find a new world to live in. But what if you don't know where to fit in among all of this? Simply floating around from world to world trying to figure out where you belong can be a pretty lonely trip. Never get to close, to attached. Don't you dare start to love this world or anything in it, because eventually... its gone.

“I don’t want to get to the end of my life and find that I just lived the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.”
— Diane Ackerman
I'm so ready to be a part of one of these worlds! For real. I'm done watching from the outside, searching for my identity. I look inside myself, I look for what can attach me, and all i see is a very dark empty space. I think its time I shed some light on what makes me who I am. Its time to start living...
