Blog Entry: I always knew I was different, never gave a shyte as to what people thought of me. For too long, I allowed what others said and thought aloud of me, to shape me into a defenseless person. For too long, I allowed what the eyes of others secretly scan, judge me on outwards appearance.    For too long, I allowed what the mouths of others secretly whisper, judge me on being truthful to myself and to them.   For too much of the longest time, I allowed myself to drown in their percieved notion of "truth" "honesty" and "perfection" in which the fatally flawed try to  convince those who are in tune with themselves that something is wrong with them. This is the time when I say, "I'd rather know thyneself and be content with it, rather than allow thyneself to become rusted and tarnished by others."   ~B.~
