I think repetition is a great thing, when it's used for memory.

It always helps me.

I don't use it fanatically.

Like people who study Dashboard Confessional lyrics like the bible, so they can sing (preach) every word of it at the next concert.

It's just a matter of fact that repetition works for memorizing things.

But I hate repetition when it comes to personalities of people.

There are people who have the same attitude everyday, usually negative, who do the same routine, and seemingly don't mind staying in the same spot forever.

There are people who do everything knowingly. They know they are being watched. Who knows how they behave when they're alone at home? It doesn't matter. Because when we're around they are all to aware of it. They do things knowing that others are watching them, so they over-dramatize.

They storm around with frowns on their faces, and slam doors, and dial phone numbers with ruthless agression, and walk from station to station with wreckless abandonment.

There are times when all of us know we're being watched, and times when all of us are dramatic, and times when we want to be loved, and noticed, and appreciated.

But it's people who live each second of their lives searching for every peice of the pie that they envision in their mind, who annoy me.

Most people who claim to be motivated, and to have this master plan, are at the same level of their lives as I am.

Actions speak louder then words.

Unfortunately, stilted actions have no sound.

And I hear that silence loud and clear.

You may be fooling a lot of people, but not the ones who actually have something going for them.

We're in the same place as you, but we're quietly building amazing structures in our spacious minds.

It's not spacious because it's empty like yours.

It's spacious because it's always expanding with beautiful ideas.

And the reason our quiet plans have a better chance of achieving success, is because our silence is genuine.

It's not accidentally muted by ignorance.
