My Reelity

Maybe society has really changed. And certain things that used to be taboo are merely frowned upon these days.

Progress? Its all a matter of perception I guess. And with the rate perception changes these days, I wonder if I can still stay true to my own principles and beliefs at the end of the day.

I suppose only time will tell.

Her words were meant to give me comfort, yet if I believed her, it would make the decision and sacrifice I made then worthless. Perhaps the comfort I take should be that it is now acceptable in this day and age and should a similar incident happen again, I need not make such a sacrifice again.

But I’m really not hoping to be in such a situation again.

I do, however, hope to seek a change in such fortunes. In the past I bear my solitude like a proud badge to let my wounds heal; and now that they have, this badge just seem to be inflicting fresher ones. My track record for the past few years have been abysmal at best, so I must admit, I might have to rely on a little more than my own effort.

Well, a lot more, it would seem, judging by the price I have to pay.

And since they feel they are up to the task, I might as well hand it over to them and see if they can fare better than me.
