We grapple.
It's slippery.
I grasp it in my hands, awkwardly, but firmly.
I gain the upper hand.
It shrieks.
It wraps it's limbs around my neck to strangle me.
I can't breath
It screams like a tortured baby.
I squeeze it.
It throws its limbs against me.
I squeeze more tightly.
If I do not breath soon, I shall suffocate.
It whips my hair, face and chest painfully with it's barbed appendages.
I squeeze harder, harder.
And with a last high pitched squeal, it pops.
Like a tyre.
I take in a knife of air to my starving lungs.
It's dead. Very dead.
I peal it off my neck slowly.
Pock, pock, pock, that is the sound of it's suckers coming free of my skin.
I begin to eat my prize.

That's Not A Knife
"At my high school, if someone was carrying a knife, they would have a huge lockdown. At college, it's just like, 'oh yeah that's Joel'"
We Put Effort In To Be Stupid
I saw a note on Facebook. It was one of those, "Answer these questions to yourself because you are so bored"
It was entitled, "Born to be someone <3"
What exactly is that supposed to mean? That you are born to be someone IMPORTANT, or just someone? Because everyone is someone. That to me highlighted how dumb Facebook, that is the people who are Facebook, can be.
Does no one thinks about how dumb that is? No one? It's literally Nonsensical gibberish that sounds nice.
You know what else is stupid? The song, "what the world needs now is love"
The singer tells God, the God who knows everything, what it is she feels the world needs. Not clean water, not more resources, not more crops and food, no. What our vastly overpopulated world needs apparently is 'love' i.e more human breeding.
Genius.

Complicated.
Being a human is complicated and overrated. We're abominations.
We, of all beings, are an hybrid of flesh and soul, all others are either wholly flesh or wholly spirit. The beings of God's ultimate reality are wholly spirit, and the other beings of this one are wholly flesh. We have a presence in both spirit and body.
A body can live without a soul, and a soul can live without a body. They do. The soul's impact upon our flesh is, despite what many might say, very minimal. However these connected pieces are one of the things that makes us very unusual animals.
The plan of God to make a hybrid creature, that was to be made in his image, is perhaps one of the reasons why his then archangel decided to become his adversary. The very idea of it, if one is not used to it, is unsettling.
The purpose of humanity, in my opinion, is to be the bride if God. However, this is a very human thing to think. There is no simple answer. The universe is so incredibly complex that any kind of attempt to define it's meaning will be met with failure.

What We Do
No sole action defines a person.
The things that define us are the things we do every day, the things that we barely think about. The things that define us are most probably attitude. If you think that you are a pilot, and you do the sorts of things pilots do i.e fly planes, you probably are one. If you think you are a slut, and you sleep around a lot, you probably are. If you think you are an artist, and you make art frequently, you probably are. Of you you play music and think you are a musician... Ect ect.
Because in truth, these words mean nothing. We are people. People do things. We work jobs we hate, we forget things, we think about the weekend. We are all the same really. Some of us feel more strongly about certain things, and spend our time working tirades different destinations, but really, there is no difference.
Everybody has got to do something.
We are our experiences. Do what you want to be, or become.

Perspective
It's funny,
I think to myself "I'm so awful".
I'm shallow, I'm lazy, I'm a thief, I don't believe in anything.
Then I see someone so much worse.
Or then I was thinking,
I'm angry, I'm full of hate, I'm incapable of mundane cooperation.
Then I see someone so much worse.
It's all a matter of perspective I suppose. Doesn't make me any better, just makes me feel better.
