Just think.

Change.

One word that can make you feel like a ray of sunshine,

or it can make you feel like you're in a rainy ditch.

"You've changed."

"Thank you" should be the response,

but all of us are preoccupied with why we changed.

"Have I?" is what we say instead,

while our heads are running a mile a minute

trying to see the change that the person who, unknowingly, made you just that little hair more of self conscious that will send you over the edge.

We wonder if it is good thing,

or if it's bad.

Why can't we see that if we weren't feeling bad before that person said those two words,

then it isn't a bad thing.

We have changed, but for the better becase we are comfortable with who we are,

or at least act like it.

If we are not happy with who we are, we can change.

There's that word again.

Maybe a better word is morph?

Morph into the human being,

instead of the clone that tries to be like everyone else.

Just think, if everyone is copying evryone else, then we are eventually copying ourselves.

We are worried about what we think of ourselves.

Shouldn't that be our worry?

What we think of ourselves?
