funnily enough

isn't it funny how time is relative?

last night seemed so far away because you enjoyed it
and now its gone
last year seemed just like yesterday
and how difficult life was then
but then again,
comes down to what you choose in that time,
and whether or not you choose to enjoy it
or be eaten up by it.

given the choice,
which would you be?

an actor?
a pilot?
a model?
a lawyer?
an environmentalist?
a marine biologist?
....
the list goes on and on

ambitions are what they're called
to give u direction
or objectives on what to achieve
motivation to spur you on

let's be realistic here
our ambitions don't really matter
funnily enough
its what you are that matters
or more like what you've become

let's rephrase the question
if you had to choose between being
a hypocrite
or a manipulator
which would you choose?

a hypocrite
in a nutshell, not doing as you say everybody else should
just shrouded by your own misery of how difficult your standards are
that you never seem to achieve them
always falling short
of how tremendously insane it is to ask it of you
and yet ask it from others

a manipulator
one who controls all the variables
who knows what exactly he is doing and how he is doing it
but by having other people do it instead
without them knowing it
the mark is to inspire
to motivate
to encourage
to manipulate

the lesser of two evils?
is there one?
what is your definition of an evil?
one where you deceive people into thinking better of you?
one where you try to make people believe they are inadequate?
one where people are hurt?

turns out
that two evils aren't so different after all
so why choose?
