Honesty

1: The Supposed Beginning

Is this the part where a normal person gives a generic beginning?

I believe so.

However, I am not generic. Not in the slightest.

Don't books just love to romanticize everything? They like to sugarcoat the hurtful truth of reality, and make everyone have a happy ending.

However...

Have you ever thought about what happens after the happy ending?

Do you really think they live out their days happily?

Well, I don't. I believe that like every other average human being that's been through shit, there are the happy times and the sad times. There is never a point where one emotion such as happiness is your main emotion until you die.

You've never thought about it, have you?

You've been so caught up in your own happiness as to how the story goes that you haven't realized the bland and unrealistic ending you've been reading is as aforementioned.

Because that's how a human mind works; selfishly.

I'm not saying I'm not selfish. Hell, I'm selfish as fuck, but I've trained myself to see beyond a few lines meant to depict a 'happy ending'.

And this training has been forced due to shit going on in my life. I'm sure at least some of you know what I mean. When shit happens, shit happens. Sometimes you can prevent it, other times you can not.

I have never been fortunate enough to be in a preventable situation, since most of other's actions from long ago have been what affected me.

Before you say 'I'm sorry' when I tell you my stories, don't bother. Pity won't help anyone, and it won't change anything. Things have happened to me, but I lived through it. It's what has helped me become the person I am.

I'm not saying I'm happy all the shitty things that happened to me actually happened to me, but they happened, and I can't change it. I've accepted it, and so should you.

Keep in mind that this is a true story.

This is my life.

So don't expect a happy ending.

Expect the truth.

Because unlike some authors...

I'm all about honesty.
