the past few days i've been thinking. what really am i? who am i? i wonder. i think. i'm pissed with myself. irritated, that i have to take my life on as an act in which few know the truth. it's true.
"It is quite interesting to see the many of us using ours brains to utilize
the best form of defense we have developed so far: acting. The human race is
full of fakers. All the world's a stage. How true. The true skill is in doing it
convincingly. As an artist of sorts, I am compelled to convince others of my
lies and have devoted much of my life to perfect this skill. Go ahead and ask
how many of your friends wish to learn about detecting lies in others? Or
rather, how many wish to learn how to lie convincingly? A skill worth knowing,
definitely.
All of us are actors. Our lives are a freestyle, and what we see on stage
or on tv is merely a form of choreographed life. A simulation. No more, no less. "
quoted from Ethan's blog. it's so true. all of us really are actors. especially me. another thing that really is true is what ethan said about me months ago. "you're misdirection is pretty good." indeed. my whole life has been the greatest misdirection. myself, the way i talk, the words i choose to use, the things i say to certain people. very few get to see my true self.
what i'm thinking about now is why. why must people see me in that light? can't they see that i've changed? i'm no longer the person that used to be before. must people really take the past me and emphasize on the point that i used to be not such a good person in your sight? must that rumor, that gossip forever be placed into motion within this place? must it be passed down all the way?
i seldom post my feelings. but truth be told. at this current moment, there's no one to tell them to. i feel hurt, i feel sad, like there's really no one there for me. like the world just hates me because of what they think that i've done wrong. they haven't tried to prove it with the source. they just prove it with the people they trust. why? why must it be this way.
think about it. you don't know who i really am. you don't know what i have really done. yet you judge me in this light and spread the word that i'm not a good person to be with? just because you think that this will protect your people? you willingly sacrifice a soul that is of innocence to save the people in a situation which is not confirmed, assumed, and may only be right in your own context.
i am also human. think about it. put yourself in the shoes of Henzy David. feel the pain that he bore for years past. you don't even know my history, yet you judge me with eyes that in your perspective is justice.
give him a chance. just like the few who have chosen to do so. then you will know his true power, his true capability. trust him. he's not what you think he is.
