I can

Frederick Niezche once wrote that people can not change their fundamental nature but they can change the way that their said nature is expressed. I think I really believe that. Somehow or another that rings the truest note that I have heard on the subject of change referring to oneself. Life seems to be just one expression of the nature of one thing or another, but people seem to get so caught up in one expression that they cannot see other methods. It really is quite tragic, in my opinion. But then again I am sure there is some good in it; like atleast the expression is not as negative as it could be. One nature could be expressed sadly, which could be expressed through anger which in turn could find expression in direct violence towards a living thing. That is not to say that does not already happen, but it is to say that that doesnt happen often. 

Some times I think I should be less serious, other times I figure someone has to be, so why not me?And on rare occasions I don't think I am serious enough. 

Who ever is out there I want you to know that you do not have to be sad. And you don't have to follow the lead of other people. You really don't. You can be more than that, I know it may seem hard to believe but there is more to life than imitation and Standard Lecture Number 7. And pain is not the only way, you always have choices. I guess thats what I'm really telling you. There is always a choice to who you are and what happens to you. You have a say, I promise.
