the pull of the dark side is strong

trying desperately to concentrate on the good things in my life…
– a roof over my head
– a job to go to each day
– friends to spend time with
– a boy to take naps with
– living without fear of war in my homeland
– parents who love me
– literacy
– intelligence
– humour
– time for hobbies, or not
– technology
– sunshine
– health
– income
– comfy pants
– a car to drive around in
– freaky eyes
– music
– freedom
– laughter
– sharing
