Sure,
I could say it-
lay it all out for you,
but that shouldn't be necessary.
I don't want that to be necessary.

Who would do such a thing?
Where is the fun in that-
unable or unwilling
to discover it
for yourself?

**** negative people.
Make love with positive people.

We are mortal.
Therefore is it a Sin
to limit One's self
(moreover, others!)
based on mere social or ideological climates.

The purpose of this Life
is to realize One's potential.
What that is, however,
must be discovered first-hand.

Yes,
that is to say
One finds One's very own self
burdened with the miraculous gift and curse
of responsibility
to dream, wish, hope, manifest, and work to create
One's own Destiny
One's own Path
One's own Self.

Nary a coward be!
Express thy true Self always,
even if not directly.

Compromise nary a thing
found within thy Self.
It serves a purpose, as does everything.
It plays a role.
It is necessary
for thy journey to come to fruition.
That is to say
it is up to thee
to decide and create
thy own destiny. Fate.

That is, however, not to say
"compromise not with it,"
For that is healthy-
I dare say necessary.

Rather,
It is only to say
"be You,"
now
and always,
while You still can.

"Be yourself; everyone else is taken,"
or, so said Oscar Wilde.
One may venture yet further:
"many of them are overrated.
Do not underrate yourself."

Develop skills.
Meet people.
Experience.
Practice.
Respect.
Balance.
Ponder.
Create.
L­augh.
Listen.
Learn.
Speak.
Think.
Share.
Write.
Read.
Give.
Love­.
Wait.
Live.
See.
Do.

Gain.
Grow.
Teach.

Seek not to impress others:
such affirmation is mercurial at best.

Seek self-fulfillment instead:
a life well-lived is a life coveted.

Compromising One's true Self
is the truest form of selling out.

Speaking One's mind
isn't always the best idea.
Sometimes, One is much better off
keeping it to One's self.

Try doing what I do:
carry a pen and notebook all the time
and write down those thoughts;
transmute thy darkness into a muse.

Make it constructive
rather than destructive,
lest it poison your life
as opposed to enriching it.

Everything is a joke;
you get it or you don't.

If you don't:
the joke is on you.
If you do:
the joke is on you.

You see, in Life,
it must be learned
how to laugh with it,
to address it head on;
lest ye be forever ******
wallowing in darkness, fear, and ignorance.

Inexorably,
we all are victims
of cosmic punch lines.

Laugh with it:
it always gets
the last laugh.

What you believe is true today
may be proven false tomorrow.

Accept such change as it happens.
