Isn’t it funny that a mere change in perspective is sometimes all it takes in order to achieve what seemed impossible before?
This concept seems so simple, so small, so… feasible.
It may be for some- hell, maybe even for most… but almost never for me.
In a rare state, I am peeking into my normal headspace from the outside, and I can see it…
The cloudiness that consumes my conscience makes me incapable of practicing productivity.
The overwhelming desire to stagnate, the uncontrollable urge to remain complacent.
My efforts will continue throughout this constant battle to have these factors no longer be a part of my existence.
I will one day succeed.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
