I am Veronica, 17 and an absolute dreamer. I want excessive things in life that I may not get. I want the intangible things that are hard to find and even more difficult to keep. Love, respect, freedom, knowledge and happiness. The beautiful things of life.
I'm forgetful and clumsy because my mind drifts so quickly. The realistic world scares me. Actually, it scares the fuck out of me. It scares me because the world is so inadequate, and it is so dishonest in every single way. So, the question is raised; can a person gain happiness here? In real life?
Being the dreamy person that I am, I like to imagine myself as a character in a book that I'm reading, or a film that I'm watching. So today, I guess I might relate myself to Dorothy from Kansas. Walking the yellow brick road, and I make stops every now and then. I'd meet new people who become new friends. A friend with knowledge and common sense like Scarecrow, a friend with the heart of gold (or should I say tin) like Tinman, and a friend with absolute courage like Lion. And as we link arms, and walk down the yellow brick road, we come across obstacles that slow down out journey, destruct our path and prevent our happiness. Then there are times where we stop at a split road. "Just follow the yellow brick road"...but which way to we turn? Left? Right? Or do we turn around and just go back...
Would I take the right road? The risky road? Or no road?
xx Veronica
