Finally the mental constipation has lifted in a flood of beautiful words
It is the expectations, writing such a high quality prose is setting unreasonable standards; time and time again I have to remind myself why I am writing my thoughts down
It’s got nothing to do with showing someone something beautiful, it’s about showing sincere thoughts, showing the real you
It takes courage, of course. People might think that I am an idiot, or superficial, or whatever
And yes they might be right , but so what
I am living from this book I got for Christmas present, the courage to be disliked, I read that someone who’s lived a full life without making any enemies hasn’t lived their own life
and wouldn’t that be a shame, what if we live only once?

Hello there are stars in the sky, the sunset was pink.
The fly I brushed off my cheek. It couldn’t be bothered to fly away so it fell down dead and shrivelled on the desktop; presumably, it had a passive death wish.
And it’s almost always dark. Before the snow falls to reflect it, the wet brown grass seem to be sucking all the daylight in.
But it’s frost, like the powdered sugar on a princess cake. It’s thawing in the sunlight, but where the shadows are, it’s still white.
Isn’t that something? A powerful omen in these trying times, with flies falling down dead or stuck dead on the ceiling, that the shadows are brighter than their surroundings!
Essentially, the flies will become dirt in a final state of metamorphosis, as we all do, I guess.
As we all do.
Isn’t this life awesome (in the terrible sense of the word)? And still I feel tired exhausted, it’s no problem at all, relating to these dried up shrivelled flies
