There is little chance for me,
to become something even close to a fantasy.
There is no chance for me,
to become something that my mother will love to see.
These are the thoughts that my mind swims around in,
constantly.
Every time I look in the mirror,
I bring this doubt into my mind that I will ever be,
enough.
The sixth article of the Universal Declaration of HUMAN RIGHTS states that,
every human on this planet,
has the right to recognition everywhere as a,
person,
before the law.
I believe that the phrase,
"before the law"
should be changed because,
we have changed.
In a different time,
this would have made complete sense,
when the law was held as more of a social construct.
But nowadays,
both men and women are judged,
not for their actions,
but for their appearance as well.
This idea that,
even though we are specs on this planet,
we are impermeable to another's words is,
appaling.
This idea that,
because we are individuals,
we cannot love someone else's difference is,
astounding.
These are the ideas that make us think,
that we are not enough.
make me think,
that we are not enough.
We are filled with this,
want to become something better,
but instead of being better,
we fall down the ladder,
and into this abyss that is filled with black goo,
and this black goo becomes our soul.
It becomes the way we act,
the way we speak,
the way we breathe.
This black goo of endless torture.
It will be the end of humanity.
It will not be the end of life,
but the end of kindness,
the end of happiness,
the end of empathy,
and at that point,
is living really worth it at all?
If you think you are worthless, please read.
