I'm always tired.
How hard is it to take a person's word at its face value?
That the spoken words bears no other hidden agenda behind it. That the five words spoken is also the same five words heard at other end? How hard is it? It's not easy. Never is.
For once, can we just ignore the suppose subtle meaning? Just forget what others have to say and just do what we want to do. Leave these shackles and chains behind. We were a free all along, with the wings to fly and the claws to hunt and the roar to intimidate predators but still, we let minor defect keep us down. Ah, a little speck on black on our feathers and we're afraid to soar among our kind, afraid of what others will say. And we are afraid to hunt, when we have one toe less than everyone. We even shuffle about meekly, afraid that our imperfect voice will evoke smirks of "ugly voice" from our fellow friends. But damn it, why can't anyone understand?!? It's all just hearsay! Words that are meaningless if we don't take it seriously. Does anyone ever realise this?
I'm tired. Already is too tired of these charades, these insecurities, these peoples telling lies that even a charlatan can't sell, these senseless weighting of other people's valueless opinions, this life.
