There were 3 things I learned today...
1. Camila loves extended metaphors.
2. Everyone yearns to fit in despite their differences. People want to fit in while standing out at the same time. To fit inside the social norms and stand out while still fitting inside the social norms. To be a different that is socially acceptable yet stay within the parameters that the society around them has set.
3. It's so cruel to watch the world teach a pure girl full of life that too much love is a crime. To teach the girl that living itself is a cruel fate. To teach the girl who always had her arms wide open that the world would always find a way to destroy the kindness which she sought to grow within herself and others. To teach the girl that too much love is a weakness, that love itself is the most detrimental emotion to ever exist. To teach the girl that love generates the strongest hate. To cause unease and wither her roots until she no longer resembled the beautiful blooming and growing flower that she once was; to teach her she had nothing more to offer to the world... that she was nothing more than a weed that the world used to teach others the same lessons. And the vicious cycle continues day after day. A new victim, a newly destroyed innocence, and a newly created bitterness.
I learn new things every day and forget others. I watch so many things happen yet I stay frozen in my lane. The whispers I hear everyday drive me crazy. They tell me things I already know at my core, things I ignored to make living easier and things that I was not even aware of.
Even though I am paralysed by fear... the voices continue to haunt me.
