Let me down
I used to be afraid of Darkness, I would wake up screaming in my bed, trying to find the nearest light. I could not breathe, the Darkness took me for many nights. I learned to embrace it...
I am a good for nothing, which literally means what it says, good-for-nothing.
I am the product of a broken economy, unemployment and most of all,  procrastination.
Somewhere along the way I lost the spark that lights our passions and it was replaced by the hole of despair. I am not willing to change things anymore, I just want to-
This is a work of fiction, but for me it means more than that, this is my only way to express what I truly feel, I don’t expect this to make sense, I just need to let it all out and maybe this will reach someone who will resonate with my words. I am afraid of putting my true feelings on paper, I am scared to be judged, to put the costume away and let all to see what lies beneath. 
Yet it is something I must do.
Sometimes to feel the light we need to take our masks out. This is my bare Self.
“When was the last time I left my house?”
I would ask myself this many times throughout the week, I could never remember.
The trash was starting to pile up in the kitchen, the food was running out and the stink of my armpits was becoming unbearable, but none of that mattered to me anymore. I had nothing, nothing to lose as well, I just had to pay rent and utilities and that meant 30 more days with a roof, simple and efficient-
No. It doesn’t feel right. Let me try again.
Ok I’m back I just had some rice.
 Eating that rice made me think about one quote from Lao tzu, I am not going to quote it but basically talks about water, how water gives life to everything in the planet yet it claims no ownership on any of the creatures it gives life to, you can step on water yet it will not react in any manner, water is everywhere. This really enlightened my conception of God (This just real I know). Growing up I was always told God loved me and had a plan for. How he was everywhere and loved everyone. As a kid I took that as a fact coming from my mom but not only until I entered my twenties I started to really look into it and give that blurred idea of God more definition. 
My conclusion? Well I don’t have one, but I got something better, a core idea of God (just to clarify this is my perception and yours is as valid as mine, something which I will explain later.)
Drum rolls please! (Now you imagine the cool drum roll noise, thank you)
GOD IS BOTH GOOD AND BAD. 
Say what? But I thought God was a source of eternal love and he had a place in heaven for me?
Well yes, but no. By that I mean God does love you, but also he doesn’t. Confusing right? Well I have an imaginary doctor that looks like Einstein that will explain this with fancy words, Doc if you might?
“Why of course my dear colleague, allow me to clarify the previous statement. What my dear friend means is that technically good and evil are not really true concepts, to illustrate this I will ask you dear reader to think about temperature.
Many would say the opposite of cold is… Hot! 
But it is not as simple as that, in my colleague’s perception hot and cold are just a lack and abundance of temperature, they both belong to the temperature realm, they are not opposites, they are quantities of temperature. You wouldn't say a kilo of rice is the opposite of twenty kilos of rice would you? Well the same can be applied to actions to some extent. Now this is not to be taken as an excuse to become a murderous machine shielding your actions with this idea, only a fool would do such a thing, this is why “technically” is such a keyword. 
Societies do have good and evil, and depending on your society you may have slightly or even quite different conceptions of them. You have a moral compass, which will make you feel bad when you do something “evil” and good when something “good” has been done. But these are just human representation or more accurately, creation. Now back to my colleague thank you for listening to this old man’s rumbling”
Wow that was boring. Anyways back to what I was saying, again this might not make sense at all but honestly and too deep to stop now and I am having a blast doing this. 
So if God is everything why is he not associated with the bad stuff? I asked my friends one simple question, what is evil? Their answer?
“Imagine that God is a candle, the closer you are to the candle the more light and warm there is, but if you go far away you won’t feel that right? Evil is the absence of God.”
Clap, clap,clap.
That was good man, I liked that response quite a lot. But that's just a pretty response, I am at the same point before asking the question. God is everything right? So how can there be any absence of everything? See what I mean? My answer?
 God is. 
That’s it. Do with it what you want.
Next!
Let’s talk about love (Yay!) more specifically unconditional love (ugh).
My take on this is I don’t believe in unconditional love, we love things or people because of the things they do or have that benefit us. 
“Bu-But my girl is like the most loyal and she loves me no matter what and I asked if she would leave me for George Clooney and she said she won’t!”
Good for you mate!
Anyways I had a weird upbringing which led to me being a weird person. (Who would have thought right!?) 
And that’s it for the love section! Brief and underwhelming just like me in bed!
Now that the bed joke is finally taken out of the way let’s continue shall we?
Now on a more serious note, many of us feel It, I call it It because I don’t know how to call it, and in all honesty It sounds hella cool. But yeah, it happens, you relapse, things fall apart and everything lose meaning, you go to social media and are bombarded with smiles and people having the time of their life, what I am saying is not new, heck many of you might have heard the same thing on social media, which is so ironic but whatever. I am not gonna tell you things are gonna get better or worse, because I don’t know shit, but I can tell you that the only constant in life is change for the good and the bad, so if you are in at the bottom of the hill know that it won’t be forever and if you are on top of the mountain the same applies. That is. 
NOW IS TIME TO TALK ABOUT ME YAY!
Ohh I love talking about myself, don’t we all? I could talk hours upon hours about myself and never get tired!
I have so many fuck yous to say but not enough time sadly so we’ll skip that!
I was raised by a single mother (Can I get a round of applause for them?)
In a country with a broken economy but an amazing quality of life, I still haven’t met my father and I don’t know if I’ll ever will, I wrote him but he left me on read (fuck him).
I have a half sister, her Dad ain’t mine but I took his last name, the guy was loaded and a drunk with psycho issues, so a lot of screaming at home which I am pretty sure messed me up because every time someone screams at me weird shit happens.
And that’s it for now, I don’t want to bore you guys but know that I have a lot to tell!
Next!
POLITICAL VIEWS
This is gonna get spicy!
So what am I? Am I a republican? An anarchist? A democrat?
Honestly dude, I am just me, do I have opinions on how a country should be run?
Of course!
Am I educated enough to convince people on how a country should be run?
I’ll let you answer that one! (the answer starts with an N and ends with an O though)
Do I think the people educated enough are doing a good job? Well just look at the news and it is quite clear.
My views? Equity, equal opportunity, racism is a no no. (Pretty basic huh? Well it’s only three things but we haven’t achieved a single one in thousands of years so you tell me)
AND NOW THE CLOSING PARAGRAPH OF PART ONE
This started as a cry for help, a hole in the balloon filled with despair and honestly, the balloon is gone, I feel so much better. So thank you Untitled Document and slowed down music compilation.
And yeah maybe I’ll continue this in more detail or maybe I won’t but for now this will remain a short story, with that said, See ya later alligator!
