blank face behind the words


I'm the type of person who believes that being anonymous is a gift that you have, but it's something you only wish to have once you've lost it. My name is irrelevant then, as is my age and whatnot. Physical details really don't matter.

As for myself as a person, I have an interest in art and psychology. I try to see the world from a third person point of view, looking at situations the way other people would. People always say I act older than I am, for which it is a good thing and a bad thing. There are a lot of events in my past that have made me do this, but I'm glad for those events. They give me a unique view of the world that I wish more people would embrace. It is with a lot of this that I have also developed a sort of cynicism for the world, while hoping for the best. People always live in the past or the future, either dwelling on past regrets or things-that-once-were, most of all what-ifs if they're not thinking about the future, so far ahead in time that they don't have time to embrace the now. People live in the present, and just as you finally think about it, the moment has already gone and become one of the past.

Living off what-ifs drives people insane. They are no longer satisfied with their decisions and spend a lifetime of regret rather than acknowledging that they had made a choice, and that there was no going back. Every moment in life has a thousand paths to go from there, you just have to pick one and hope for the best. If it doesn't go well, it will be in the past.

These thoughts are the kinds of things that drive me every day. I take in influences from every person that I meet, from their personalities and decisions and absorb that into a collective to guide myself. I do not dream of becoming a millionaire, nor of becoming famous. I would be satisfied living in a studio apartment in the city, sitting down every Sunday afternoon with a cup of something nice with music playing and talking to a friend. There are small things in life that we enjoy to the fullest when are in that moment, but afterwards it is soon forgotten and yearned over, until you find something a little better, more fulfilling. My dream in life is to just be happy and live a peaceful life.
