so many people in this world think they know the truth with a smile and a nod they see the evidence of youth but they do not see the simple fact that youth and wisdom are not the same it is a simple little difference and yet so few have caught this game they think that words like "way to go" and "I like" will mean they are great but little do they know these friendly backstabs seal them in their fate oh I could be like everyone else and say the things you want to hear but instead I chose not to play the games that dwell on here a popularity contest of who's the best no one can win, the judge rigged the test tomorrow you'll be mad for sure at me but I don't care because I'll still be me |

Heh heh...Desperado...you sure hit the nail securely with this one. Individuality is not being like everyone else...it's all about being you just as hard as you can. Good to see that irregardless of what others say or think about you, you will still be you....or a ewe.  Alicat |

I agree whole haertedly on this one! The problem in this is...you have to be honest but at the same time not hurt people unnecessarily.Always be yourself but always remember to be respectful of others. |

Micheal, you stole what I was gonna say!!! GRRRRRRRRRRR Oh well, des, the poem was great. I hate the way this society is trying to make us all into the same thing, like a robot. Once on the news, I actually heard a school district trying to pass a dress code on the grounds that "We need to eliminate diversity in our schools." Matter of fact, before I even get started here, perhaps I'll post a topic about it in prose.
