I should really listen to myself sometimes..

There's been lots on my mind as those of you close to me have probably noticed. It's just been hard to properly form it all into something coherent. The seemingly important things can wait though.

I've been people watching whenever I'm out. Everyone generally looks the same; they've all got the same basic human form. The only things differenent about each of them are the moments and memories that have led him or her to the exact second in which I've observed that person.

And sometimes, I feel as though watching these people is a crime. Every one of us puts up invisible barriers and walls that are meant to protect ourselves from the prying public. I don't get it though, what's so horrible about letting the rest of the world in? Have we ourselves commited something so horribly sinful that every other person on the face of the earth would judge as wrong? I really don't think so. Generally, people are too busy to even care to begin with. Not to mention that everyone has at one point done some sort of act that he or she looks down upon so who are the rest of us to judge him or her in the first place? No one's perfect. So perhaps, instead of putting mankind on some sort of pedestal, we need to look at the big picture: People make mistakes. People aren't invincible. And no matter how hard you try to escape everybody else, you can never escape yourself.
