My Biggest Fear

My biggest fear is losing my individuality. I'm afraid that, one day I'm going to become just another face in the crowd, and I'm going to lose the drive to seek new adventures. I fear that, one day I'll stop wanting to fill my life with my own stories and I'll just fill it with stories from another aimless mouth. 

Where I'm from, the people drink the same drinks, they wear the same clothes, they listen to the same music, they only take what's put directly underneath their noses. The people here don't travel, they stay where they are and they keep it safe. I'm afraid that I'm going to become just like them, and I won't realize it until it's too late. 

My fight is not to be different from the crowd, it's to keep my soul alive and growing. I want to fight to want to learn about more than what's given to me, to learn not just within the walls of my school. 

I hope that I will push my fears to it's absolute limits, and then overcome those fears, and then replace those fears with new ones and repeat the whole cycle over again. I don't want to be the same person in twenty years that I am now, but in a fatter and more unpleasant version. I want to be changed by my experiences and grow from those experiences. 

I see people eat the shit Hollywood gives them and then shit out exactly the same stuff. We're losing not only our creativity, but also our thoughts; people are beginning to become one gray face. We need to fight for our individuality and keep the color that this world deserves to be drenched in.
