life as a shoe

It's funny when people say "Don't worry, I understand." When actually they really don't. How can they? They're not you. They don't go through the same shitty world that you do. It's time to stop telling people to put theirselves in someone else's shoes. How can they? It's either it doesn't fit them or the shoes are too big for them. And even if they try to fit in, they cannot wear your shoe. It's your own shoe. And you'll be wearing the same fuckin' shoe for the rest of your goddamn life.

Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family, Choose a f—king big television. Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose a three piece suit on hire purchased in a range of f—king fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the f—k you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing f—king junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, f—ked-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose a future. Choose life . . . But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin’ else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got heroin?
