People say or think at least that for a young petite girl of 18 I am too free
my dreams are too high
my actions are excessively erratic
and as far from this planet as possible
but that is exactly where I want them because why would I want them to be here among people like that who reside here
people who desire to limit my experiences, my power, and my opportunities - particularly of freedom.
I will continue to carry on as I do because they haven't seen the alluring views that I have or experienced the feeling of ecstatic happiness, activated by stranger's kindness or learnt life's simple lessons as adequately as I have.
Therefore, where they advance in concern with regards to life's limitations, I will continue to flourish. For after all,
life in that small village is safe but it is certainly not brave.
I for one do not intend on spending my short life on being safe.
