Nothing's gonna change my world.

Some things should be confined to song lyrics and fifteenth century novels. I really am one not easily swayed. I will not be easily caged by what anyone thinks of as romance. I've defined my terms. Meet them or die.

You are free. You are free. You are free.

Recite this to yourself when you feel like no one in the world understands you. No one is that person you are looking for but that's okay. You don't have to please anybody right now, or please anybody tomorrow because there is no one you know who you want to please.

You are free. You are free. You are free.

I'm not a people pleaser. I don't go to great lengths--or even short lengths for that matter--to make people like me. I don't care what anyone thinks of me. Perhaps this is why I'm not very attractive to others. I don't go out of my way to make you like me. Sure, I give you the time of day if I like you. But I don't care if you like me.

I am free.

I'm making flip books this week. Pen and ink drawings. Yay!
