What does this have to do with...
Good thought to have, but it has everything to do with intent. I'm not "peace and loving" person by any means, though I can be. It takes but a moment for me to recognize what someone is about or their methods since I've been thoroughly exploring my own thoughts since I recognized the utterly antiquated yet not distilled version of me that has not become.
Keep this in mind as I tell you these stories.
Into a void that no one could see. Fuck "Dark, silent, complete," Chuck*. We're talking about knowing too much too soon
I learned long ago when I was a teenager that no matter how pretty I am or how skilled I am "at the sex," no matter how big my dick is, no matter how many songs I could write or how many drawings I could make, there is only one thing I couldn't do for attention - give attention to myself.
It's odd to explain, you know? We travel in our own minds. We all have short-term, long-term goals ever how selfish they are - they're still goals. Some people get attention by putting others down to draw others to think they're a "better choice." Some raise themselves higher than others - especially in quiet circles - to feel superior, a temporary ego - as it is.

What is written in the soul,
For which is written in the shining silence,
We all have to read"
