What is it like to lie to yourself, trick yourself into believing the life you created for yourself is the life you wanted.
How different is it from simply lying to others. When you lie to others and know the truth does that make a difference then when you life to yourself and believe it. When your whole life is a fictitious set of emotions and memories.

What must it have been like for him, age 5, the weight of his family on his shoulders. What it must have been like to be engulfed by celebrity for the majority of your life. What must it have been like to have no childhood and to spend your adult life trying to capture it again.
You can't go back again, you can't recapture what you've lost, but you can live in memory through your music.

The life of a Financial Analyst - who never thought she would be one
I never knew what I was really going to do, perhaps it is because what I truly dreamed of was never an acceptable carrer path, writer. It is only now that I realize I could have chosen to become a journalist, perhaps majoring in Political Science or even going to Law School. However, I don't regret my past choices.

Becoming a nerd again
After about 3 years of mediocrity I am trying really hard to make myself the nerd I once was. The person who had to get an assignment done on time simply because it was assigned. The person that would stay up as late as it took to write a paper. The person that was eager to complete a task, any task well.
I think my entrance into the "real world," has made me an average person. And I say that in a very negative way. I say that in the same vein in which me and my honors classmates would refer to other students as "the regular kids." In the workplace, I am a regular kid. I no longer go above and beyond, unless it is to help others. Instead I am content to do C quality work. And the reason is because it just doesn't matter. In school working hard always let to something concrete, a good grade, which led to admittance into a good college, and which would eventually lead to a good job. I do believe I ended up with the good job, the problem is I hate it. Now the question is how do I find my niche and excel in it.

Ageism
Old people should not be allowed on Facebook if they have children, nieces/nephews on it as well. It's just wrong.

Its amazing and inspiring to me when I see people appreciate their lives and what they have. I feel like I do, but I don't, if that makes any sense. I am unbelievably lucky, and in a lot of ways I am living out some of my dreams, but in others I am so far away from where I thought I would be it makes me feel as though I am a failure.
