The End of a Beginning

Here's to beginning and ending on a sour note. I've been plagued by the same thought for far too long, And the words that tattoo this page have all been here before. You never expected anything from me, And it turns out you were right. To anyone that's been listening: Life is only as good as you fucking make it. Those who wallow in self-pity and disgust are the ones who experience the most pain, and it's because they want it. I hope the worst day of your life never happens, even though it probably already has and no one even noticed. Those who know this know that there's no one else to blame when you fuck up. No one can fix it either. Do what you think is right and don't let anyone hold you back. It's a mistake, I would know. Time is like a highway and you look and it stretches forever. Nothing is forever. Time will soon run out, as will the highway. Don't get stranded in the middle of nowhere. Do not make plans or wishes. Neither are efficient unless one has the will to carry them out. Do you have it? Would you act upon it for me? Secrets are a killer now. 1/14/06
