We are so much more than we or anyone else can fathom. We are doctors, lawyers, lovers, artists, walkers, sleepers, watchers, doers, eaters, fathers, mothers, children, grandchildren, hoisters of our flags, singers, chefs, sun bathers, showerers, word creators, social network butterfly's hoping to be discovered, unemployed dreamers, resume writers and loners who avoid crowds. We are vicious people loving animal eating, tree hugging pescatarians, carnivores and cannibals of sorts. We are lovers of peace but hate that we must wage war to preserve that peace. We are God fearing, loving atheists and believe in talking to ourselves asking for guidance from a higher power who we have never seen or exchanged words with. We are abstainers who choose to participate in our own terms and arena. We are arm chair umpires who know in our heart we can do it all better. We are dreamers who live each day in rote fashion because we just don't have the energy anymore to fight. We are broke yet feel richer than Kings when we are surrounded in our world. We are searching for answers within the questions and climbing mountains without any shoes. We are pressure cooking our brains and somehow we live to tell the tales. We are poets, storytellers and love way too intense. We see beauty in the mundane yet feel as if we are lost in a junk yard with all exits chained shut. We are race car drivers in traffic jams and we are airplane pilots with a fear of heights. We can change the world but we cannot pay our bills. We are headlines without a front page and a ball game with no balls in sight. We are who we are and that means much to the ones who matter. We love life and we want to live it beyond society's barricades. Do I make myself clear cause I am confused. I am a contradicted man without limitations.
