the puzzle that is 'Me'

1. I hate being alone.

2. My moods take an unpredictable amount of time to change.

3. I can look scary when I'm angry. Mostly because I don't say what I'm thinking, but its there for all to see.

4. I don't become emotionally attached to anyone easily. But if I do become attached, then I am very difficult to un-attach.

5. I like a good story. In a book or a film. It doesn't have to have a happy ending. In fact it doesn't need an end at all. I love story-tellers.

6. I am not good at hiding my feelings. So I walk away when I don't want to show people what I feel.

7. I hear everyone. I listen to those i feel matter.

8. I find humour where most people don't.

9. I love dreaming about what might have been, should have been or will be.

10. I keep thinking and dreaming. So i talk to myself a lot. Too much time alone is a bad thing.

11. I love arguing. Especially if the person at the other end can change my views on something.

12. I don't like people who say that I can do something when I know i can't.

i wish i DON'T

"
- Enjoy watching someone fail
- Lie to keep someone happy

-Waste my time with people I don't like

- Judge someone's habits
- Feel apathy about things that should matter

- Laugh at unfunny jokes

- Wonder if I am loved

- Lie about liking someone

- Spread my political convictions around

- Waste my time looking for the good in people I don't have to like.

Nice Day?

What happens on a nice day?


Do you win the lottery?
Do you find money on the sidewalk?
Do you see an old friend?
Do you finally stop seeing that one person who you reserve all your loathing for?
Do you have the most productive and energetic day ever?
Do you have a lazy, hazy day doing nothing?
Do you see your favourite football team win in style?
Do you see your least favourite team lose miserably?
Do you discover someone else shares your tastes?
Do you have a meal and realize that was the best damn meal you've ever had?
Do you laugh more than you talk?
Do you spend every second with someone you like?
Do you see something rare happen?
Do you see a life saved?
Do you get free t-shirts?
Do you read a good book?
Do you ace a test?
Do you organize your desk so it looks unbelievably neat?
Do you get a good night's sleep?
Do you get an unexpected compliment?
Do you look forward to tomorrow?

Have a nice day.

appreciating disability

To really appreciate what it feels like to be blind all you have to do is to try and get through 1 day, or even half a day, awake and with only 1 eye patched up.

You can still see, and even so you feel so helpless when one of your vital organs have been taken away from you. The reasons for this is another fairly long story so I guess thats not important.

I'll be back to 2 eyes, although with sunglasses, soon. But what I experienced in those few hours, I will never forget.
