They need everyone else to notice how "successful" and marvelous they are.



I don't know where that insecurity comes from, but thank god I don't have it.

I've met other people.

They're idiots.

Why the fuck would I ever care if they're impressed with me or not?

The only person I've ever wanted to impress is myself.



Small, quiet and slow is the way to go.


Whatever rocks one's boat. You can't fathom the way I felt upon getting my First helipad.
