Confrontation

    Truth is I have an obsessive persona. I get attached very easily and I don't let go. That's major part of why maturity has been so hard on me lately.

Has been over for months now, to me, but only came clear to my mind now. And here I am writing about it. 'The very first step to solving a problem is to identify its existence.' Precise enough. Take care of your soul. Souls are precious. They are very delicate & sensitive creatures. You have to be careful with every act that affects them.  I recently developed a new hobby which is actively observing and listening to souls. Yes, they talk. Their language is in our everyday lives! Everything you see in the street, on the internet, at home, at college, at work. All that. It...

The 14th
