"Im the realist you ever met!!"

You know how they have these television shows proclaiming that the footage they display is reality? Well, sometimes I feel that they are reality. Stay with me; hear me out. See in immediate surroundings there are people all around me exclaiming just how real they are, but what they end up being is messy, shallow, and fake. Have you experienced this as well? So, these television shows are in fact showing reality. The reality of just how 'real' a lot of people are.

Why did I bring this up????

I recently left my college town because I was suffocating in the artificial air. Everything around me was crazy. Its like I was living in a parallel universe. I just had to get out. So, anyway, I was recollecting on the past 5 years and questioning how I made it through those years. My answer: My daily dose of real. Maybe it wasn't daily but it was often enough to ensure my survival. It did not begin immediately. 2005 sometime. He was what kept me sane. All it took sometimes was just a simple hello to let me know that I am not the only person here. I am not legend. Real does exist here. Did exist here. All that I knew that was real is now gone, along with my sanity, and along with me. My surroundings have changed. I am now with the truest, realist people I have ever seen: Mi Familia.

Maybe one day I will be able to catch up with the one that got me through college. Hopefully, he has not succumb to that fallacy of realness that was being force fed to us in that college town. Hopefully, he still has his sanity. That'd be nice.








Goin off on tangents once more... in a sunkissed kind of way..
