Back on December 6th 2010, I asked a question, a question that, in my own roundabout, ADD riddled, scattered brained way, have answered, however me being me (as if I could convincingly be anyone else for more than a few hours) I feel that it is a valid, and mostly direct question, that I have failed to answer in any sort of direct and valid way, and of course as is my curse of having a selectively long and cast iron memory, and having my own constantly shifting method of throughput into my own life, I now find that I suddenly, and rather fittingly (for my level of ADD and tri-polar insomnia) I have the urge to answer that question, as unfair as it really is for me to do so with such a both indefinable and yet massive amount of hindsight. Yes, I know, the wonderful sexy and long suffering English Major I'm dating has just cringed at the almost 100 word long run-on sentience I just wrote (I <3 u Kitten :3) Sorry...
And so now, as I wrangle my ADD and the shred of muse I currently have, I will now answer that question:
All things being equal, even when they aren't (and they never really are anyways) I can say, that in the end, the greatest personal evil is to refute oneself, and to cling to that which will undoubtedly kill you, be it on which ever level or in whatever realm of meaning you which to plug it into, and thereby steal from God, the world, and yourself, your true self, and all that you might be capable of...
To quote The Bard; "... This above all; to thine own self be true..."
OR to quote Socrates: "Know thy self."
From the above, I can say this; understand who you really are at heart, and not who you think others want you to be, the be honest with yourself, and the world as to who you are, and just what you can do, and if others don't like it? Feed em' fish heads, because they don't matter, and they can't and won't be held accountable for your heart, actions, and sanity. Only you will be.
