for some time now, i think..i've always thought that i'm so myself that i don't need to be affected by others. somehow saw it as a weakness,see as weak thus refrain or, because am weak thus refrain. whether or not its because i never willingly let myself near enough to be affected. people affect..like how you know when the atmosphere's wrong. when they take a turn to another route, makes you hear the sound of your own panting breath louder, something about security..i can't quite place that feeling now. it gets to me.
just crossed my mind what AC was saying the other time.you need to stand firm black and white on some things, only then can the gray areas stay gray.
