I want people to actually say something ~fucking~ real for once.
I wish people would write letters and tell stories and be honest.
I want people to be honest with me, because it's clear that they're to afraid to be honest with themselves.

The Japanese have just accepted this huge difference between what we mean and what we say, calling them "honne" and "tatemae." The first is reality as you understand it, the second is reality as filtered through what society expects.
The difference is the Japanese don't seem to regard this as something to get pissed off about (they don't recognize one as being more true or honest than the other, but as simply two sides of reality). They have have figured out that it's just the way the world works. Society is built on lukewarm lies, get over it."
I don't know if this is OK, but it's certainly true.
Mostly, reality doesn't give a shit; it doesn't have to be OK for it to be true.
I want things to feel real again, like they did when I was a self-indulgent teenager who had time for the internet and for cutting herself. When I had the energy to make myself feel real and to care and to tell the truth. Now, all I have left is apathy. I live in a world where lying is easier than bringing myself to face the truth.
I don't know if this is OK, but it's certainly true.
I don't want artsy fartsy hyperboles. No emo bullshit.
Just the truth.
Please tell me, because I can't seem to find any of my own.
