How often do you take a step back and view the world differently than you ussually do? Some people use drugs, others use meditation, others with spirituality... What do you use, and how do you do it?

People piss me off. Not because of anything they can help, but just because of who they are.... because of who I am. I've seena lot of **** through this set of eyes I've got, and every little bit of it has changed who I am.

All my life, it's been loss, pain, more loss, more pain, with very little in-between it all to account that would constitute happiness, or a reason to persist. A lot of deceit, too. People don't deal with this stuff on a normal basis, and if they do, it's on a much more minor scale than I've seen some people, including myself, deal with it. When your average, run of the mill Joe sees "loss", he's probably thinking "breaking up with a girlfriend, losing money, friend moving away"... whereas I would think something like "parents dying, breaking up with fiance, brother killing self".

**** like this has me seeing things on a very essential level... I'm very bottom-line about ****, and I don't get caught up in elementary **** very often. It's for this reason that I can't relate to a lot of people. I'll hear them ***** about daddy not buying them a car, and I'm thinking "at least your father is still breathing". I hear them complain about a girl they'd been seeing for 3 months breaking up with em, and I think "*****... pick it up and move on." I hear people ***** about such meager things... money, sociality, politics... yet each one is well-off, willing to mingle and too lazy to do anything in the name changing the way of the world, except *****. Think of it like this... you could be a burn victim. You could be afflicted with illness. You could be paralyzed. You could be an amputee. Every ****in day I'm able to get out of bed and live my life, by myself & for myself, I am thankful for whatever has made that possible.

I also see a lot of things that society affords us as individuals that people take for granted... a mindset based strictly upon convenience, self-servitude, and lack of ambition. ****in people are so slothly and unenthused, they have nothing to live for and serve absolutely no ****ing purpose in this world by breating my air, consuming our resources, or reproducing to occupy even more space than their meaninglessness already does.

****.
