shock therapy.

They say: if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it. In that respect, if it is broken, do fix it, right? Well, it’s come to my attention that I, myself, maybe broken and I guess it’s about time that I try to do something about that. Afterall, I am 21 – when better?

It took some rather honest and open criticism from someone dear for me to see my faults. To be honest, I kinda knew they were there – I just ignored them and took for granted, the patience and tolerance of people around me. To have them pointed out and laid bare before me was a shock to the system to say the least, and I’m pretty certain that things will never go back to how they were. So, shouldn’t I change with the times? It’s not going to be easy, and I’m probably going to struggle for a while but I hope that with change will come progress: I want to be a better man.

Regret, sorrow and self-beration aren’t going to do anything. So for once, I’m going to keep a stiff upper lip, accept the consequences and move on.

Change is inevitable.
