Change.

In the beginning, we're the honest most truest self. We are the art easel that has yet to be painted on. Around four or five we're either most creative and imaginative for the first time in our lives or we are into bugs and beetles because they're creepy things that ignites our curiosity. In those earliest days we don't lie to ourselves because we're being judged or hide from ourselves because we don't like it, we appreciate that we're alive and live. But those days are taken, we are changed... we transition to what society needs us to be. This change is what makes us the individuals that we are today.

It happens throughout public school. We're expose to people who bully each other because the "weird" kid isn't loved. The kid who wants to be someone isn't accepted because everyone else doesn't have the same ambition. The saddest part in this whole truth is that we don't change because we want to, but because we have to. We change through having a broken heart, our feelings are bashed in because the rawest most purest self isn't accepted. The transition from being innocent to a soul full of sin happens as a byproduct of this broken heart. Through metamorphoses we have to learn about our pure self all over again, after dealing with the torture of society we then have to learn how to walk, the walk of courage to keep going which is a therapeutic practice that we exercise through means of meditation. Life in a child's eyes is only beautiful because this child has yet to be exposed. This child hasn't been exposed to racism, prejudices, murders, or even deaths yet and when they are they too will change. They will no longer think of this world as a beautiful happy place or think of this universe as a sky full of wonder, but that it is a hell that we are forced to walk through each and everyday, a hell you have to learn how to cope with.

In the event that change is good you find pleasure in knowing that you may be at peace. For instance, taking on to some kind of liking that everyone around you disagrees with, inhaling and exhaling marijuana. People have no clue how imaginative and eventful this world is if they never try. It is a drug that is psychedelic but brings out the inner most truest you because you no longer have the capabilities to limit yourself to societal norms. This kind of change is only to benefit you and not everyone else. You transition into being what you want yourself to be and not what every one else approves of. Throughout evolutional stages of one's own life you learn that perceptions don't matter because what might be strictly wrong to one person feels genuinely right to another. Just when one person is so certain on one subject matter you begin to acknowledge the fact that every absolute thing can be questioned.
