"I'm a long shot"

"I'm a long shot"

I am whoever I wake up and decide to be, there is no putting me in a box or trying to get me to fit in. There is no bending me to your will or manipulating me, if I had a super power it would be my intuition and ability to accurately size people up with lightning speed. I have two modes, I'm either full on or full off. When I'm on it's an impressive sight, when I'm off it looks more like I'm pathetic or depressed. The truth however is that my spirit can not be broken and even on my worst day I'll smile, tell a joke and make you laugh because the worst day of my life is still better than the best day dead. Once I've been dead 100 years I will have only just begun to be dead so I'm living this life one second at a time on my terms. The point in my life that I was willing to try and help people see the world through my eyes has long passed. You live in your world, I live in mine and I'll visit you once in awhile but I'm going back to my abstract planet full of endless ideas and possibilities to thrive. So don't bet on me I'm a long shot but in a billion I might be the one. I'm fine on my own so just stand by watch me fail or watch me fly either way I'm gone, some day you'll sing along.

Dang! I wish I had as much awesome self-confidence as you do. Where do you buy yours? Seriously, I picture myself sitting outside in the grass while you fly overhead...with a cape on. lol

That's a cute picture to think about. I wouldn't call it self confidence, I would call it comfortable in my own skin, unwilling to make excuses and apologize for who I am. It's that I'm alright enough with myself and know my limits well enough to no longer question or care about how other people see me.

Maybe that's just another way of saying nothing left to lose.
