Welcome to The SoapBox!!

This is the freedom of speech page.. or the "SoapBox" welcome!.. obviously you dropped by because you figured... hey, I need to see how messed up this person is... well here we go...

I hate it when people speak of tolerance and love and then go 180 and show none towards others... hypocrisy at its finest... I see the world around me and notice too much of this happening... too many people expect so much from others and yet don't care to give the same amount...

I don't expect people to give a damn about my words or the fact I rant here every week... I don't expect people to care if I die tomorrow... I don't expect people to care about my stupidity and my shallowness, let alone my sense of depravity... to expect people to give a damn about my traits is insane...

If I don't like something I don't stick around for it... what I don't understand about most people is that they go ahead and stay and won't say anything... to learn that people put up with me just because they want to be polite would make feel like shit... not only do the people I talk to not care about my words.. they don't consider me enough of a person to say it to my face that they don't give a damn...

But don't go up in my face preaching tolerance, understanding and love and then go and put me down for trying to explain my position of why I'm upset!... that's just wrong... you may not agree with me, granted... I don't care... but don't interrupt me in attempt to try and change your reasoning in order to trap me in your web of deceit...

I speak my mind.. I don't care for the polite approach... I may not be the friendliest person, I may not be the nicest.. but you want brutal honesty, I will tell you the truth... sorry to say it, and sorry if it hurts you but honesty is something that isn't found enough of nowadays... so when anyone wants my opinion and gets bent out of shape for it.. fuck you!.. you asked.. it's your fault you couldn't own up to it...

But dammit, Age does not denote maturity.... I don't care how old you are.. you can still act like a dumb kid even at an older age... when someone saying that they stopped being with a certain group because of maturity levels?... BULLSHIT!... everyone was getting along fine before.. now suddenly you've become more mature in only two weeks?... I can understand if the insight was not maturity but if they saw that they were doing themselves an injustice by staying with these people.... that makes sense...

After all my dealing with groups and peoples that I've had... I usually leave them behind... why?.. because I'm doing myself an injustice by being with people that only hinder my self growth... To go forth from nothing in order to become more than what you originally thought you could be.. to exceed your original boundries... it's a thing of beauty...

It's said that a mans character is shown by the company he keeps... luckily I've found company that helps me become a better person, immature or not, these people push me to achieve more for myself and become more prolific... to have stayed with those I originally knew would have had me become a nothing, a pile of refuse and a mediocre artist and human...

So fuck maturity level and age... it's up to you to decide where you're going and what you hope to achieve.. just hope the people you've chose to surround yourself with are the kind of people you like to be with...
