Ever get the feeling...

Ever get the feeling no one's in it for anything else but themselves? Or how 'bout the one in which you think the friends you think are your friends really aren't all that much? That perhaps it was a courtesy thing or manners or being polite. The idea that they genuinely gave a rat crap for anything you had to say to them or thought about them or thought about in general wasn't all that much true. Yeah, I've got some of that. And I apologize for getting all Deputy Downer on everyone yesterday. I didn't realize it was that depressing. And like everyone should, I'll try not to tell the truth as often. People don't like the truth as much as they'd like to believe they do. And my personal opinions and motivations for everything in life being dependent on what others think, I believe it's the way to go on this one. Don't tell the truth so much. But I do think that from time to time I tend to lose myself between the opinions of other people. I don't know why that is. Actually I know exactly why that is. But I'd really rather not type it out in it's naked, literal form. It's pathetic, it's embarassing, and more to the point it makes me look weak and stupid (not to suggest I'm not). Yeah, I probably shouldn't have typed those things out. Sorry 'bout that. "And in that moment, Dan was reminded once again why he wanted to write in the first place. It's for the same reason anybody does anything: to impress women."
