Who are you?

I do not think I have a lot to offer this community but just wanted to say this one thing as I have learnt this the hard way: In life never suppress your personality. Always stay true to who you are at the core. If you don't do this it leads to anxiety, depression, insecurity, mental illness etc.. I wanted to say this as society hates peoples who are comfortable in their own skin and deviate from the middle. Society wants people who are fake and manufactured.

Never apologise for who you are. If you are extremely competitive, ambitious, driven and have a desire to conquer or dominate, totally own it. Likewise if you are timid, shy, passive, totally own that shit. Don't think of them as personality traits and don't label them. Think of yourself as a complete being that is these things.

If you feel you have "bad" parts in your personality, it is better to let that shit come up and be aware of it. If you suppress it, it will fuck your life up in ways you can not imagine. It will lead you down roads you never wanted to go down or never knew existed. You will end up doing things you never ever would do. Awareness lets you mitigate them and make a conscious decision to not do them. By suppressing things, you are being controlled by those "bad" parts and slipping down towards those "bad" things.

Not sure if this will resonate with anyone but I just realised this and wanted to ensure no one else makes the same mistake I did.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills.

I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words.

You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands.

Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.

But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it.

You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
