demeanor.

All the things we want as children.. The ideals, the visuals, the
dreams, the people we want to surround ourselves with, the
possessions, the memories... Have you noticed that as adults, our
desires stay generally the same. We still want versions of what we
dreamed of as children and thus we attempt to conquer our desires,
whether we are aware of it or not. I think it's a fascinating
phenomenon, that we never deeply change as adults... We simply learn
to be obedient and socially acceptable in our public demeanor.

a hard time.

I have a hard time letting go of my best memories and forgiving myself for my mistakes. I find myself constantly thinking and living in these moments that have already occurred but are plaguing me in such leech-like ways. Also, it's an phenomenon to be a person. The act of using your mind for simple tasks such as turning your head to the left of more complex activities such solving a difficult statistics problem is a highly miraculous thing to me. I don't know, and no one truly knows the answer to the highly debated topic began by Deacartes: wether we are souls who happen o have bodies or vice versa.... But regardless, I lean towards the former. I was born a born and blessed with a body to express the complexity of my inner self.
