    Exposing My Flaws

    I hate fighting.  I hate whining.  I hate my clumsy faults.  I hate not being able to see Jesus yet.  I hate my big mouth.  I hate that I can't be trusted.  I hate introducing myself.  I hate using 'I' in every fucking sentence.  I hate being stared at like I'm doing something wrong all the time.  I hate not being in control of my own thoughts.  I hate being alone.  I hate when people wisper.  I hate when no one talks to me.  I hate talking to myself when I'm moderately insane.  I hate not being included.  I hate feeling like a lost cause.  I hate being responsible sometimes.  I hate the phrase "win or lose".  I hate how hate gets me through life.  I hate feeling like I'm the only one playing offense.  I hate coming up with more strategies after everything else fails.  I hate settling for less.  I hate knowing that if you could have followed me like a shadow throughout my life, you would understand me better.  I hate being underestimated.  I hate the way I carry myself.  I hate venting out to people who say, "I know what you're going through" but couldn't compare.  I fucking hate pens.  I hate the idea of moving on.  I hate straining myself over being tongue-tied.  I hate when people think I'm all talk.  I hate wanting confidence but not having the ability to gain it.  I hate feeling defeated.  I hate how I have to prove everyone wrong about me.  I hate being shy.  I hate getting to know people.  I hate how I don't suck the energy out of fun, fun sucks the energy out of me.  I hate seeing the same old faces.  I hate overthinking.  I hate being the better person by walking away.  I hate concentrating on the future.  I hate taking pride in myself when I know I am absolutely nothing.  I hate how I'd hate leaving this place when it's this place that has only caused me grief I won't overcome.  I hate using the word hate because it is too common.  I hate how after telling you all this, you still couldn't give a damn.

    But I love taking the risk in exposing my flaws

    Amazing Exposure. It feels good to let it all out. I enjoyed this because I identified with so many of the statements and it's hard to be real with yourself. But You did it and Bravo! It was Grand! 10 for the Rant, my dear! Rant On!

    I give a damn. Just a small one though. And nope, no one knows what someone else is going through. Now write one about the things you love. :)

    DAMN, Couldn't have put it better myself.... After all, when the day is done all we have is ourselves."No matter How Much you love someone, you'll back off when you see a pool of their blood inching it's way closer to you."- Caitlin Hoffman- ( My best friend since Middle school.).... I find that it's better to put all your flaws out there in the beginning, thus.. Not being "FAKE" and being able to see that EVERYONE will EVENTUALLY walk away.. It's easier to prepare yourself for the "Beautiful letdown" All the while knowing that "Everything Ends." Nice job. All the best -Marion-
