take time and think before you speak, you have more impact than you know


Expectations

This is how life should be!
This is what you do!
This is why!
This is not good enough!
We're excellent
You need work
You have to be perfect and you know it
That is your reputation
Don't you dare disappoint me
...
O them, they don't have as high standards
Their low achievers
I'll help them more than you
But you better not disappoint me
Or else I'll take everything
...
That doesn't matter
What matters is that you're presentable to society
We don't have issues
We don't have problems
We're excellent
We don't have to talk about anything
We don't have to work anything out
Because your fabricated stories and problems DON'T exist
Now go back to being perfect
Or I swear to you
We'll take everything away
All of it
