Turn down the background noise. Shut off all the lessons that you have learned, all of the hobbies that you have acquired through friends, shed away where you were, are, and will be.
Just sit there for once, in original thought. If you are afraid let the fear wash over you, through you, and then drift away behind you. It is here, in this silence, when you truly are yourself, when you truly grow. Love or hate, anger or depression, you are feeling not because you should, but because you are.
This is where you grow, and move along your own path in this life.
I just wanted to say that in the middle of being overwhelmed by graduate school applications this really helped me take a deep breath. Thank you Sam =)
