Fetter-To confine, Restrain.

I write, tonight, with the utmost admiration for my fellow readers. I write tonight, with the grace of musical brevity and joy in my heart, for I can not describe my elation. It is 2:19 AM as I write this very sentence, and with exhaustion as my beckoned maiden, I can not help but feel compelled to write. This may sound very fragmented and unusual, but my mind is but a chaotic swirl of thoughts. Let me try, for one moment, to confine my thoughts and fetter my passions so that I may be but humbled and calm to speak.

Tonight I write with the poetic stylings that seep from my very being. Tonight I write with nothing but thoughts of unrequired care. Tonight, I will write with a point.

Long has man existed in search of labels and meanings to his life. We use the tools of language to shackle our thoughts and place admonishing titles for ourselves, as if we were special or great. I see young ones meandering around, telling tall tales of their greatness, how they have experienced something beyond explaination to somehow convey their importance to the world. I hear these stories, as if, for one moment, those who tell are immortalized in glory. They speak with the ideas that they may one day live up to their tales and transcend their ideas of reality. To put simply, people lie to sound important.

Now here is the point of my entry. I seek only the ideals of selflessness and encourage those who read, those who honestly care to hear what I may have to say, to look at themselves and realize their mortality. Take heart to what they say and understand that it is not the greatness of the tale told, but of the unfettered passion for life. I ask that for those that feel unfit for the greatness so rightly deserved by all, to stand up and let their passions be known without fear of ridicule or hate. Understand that we are but alive for a brief glimmer and that, within a blink of an eye, fade away into nothingness. Understand that, for this moment, the inactivity of one's self will lead to the quickening of said fade. I say, with nothing but the sheerest of care that there is more to life than you may see. We must not hide by the facades of our emotional barriers. Instead, we must rise and let our passions take flight and exceed all expections, most of which, we create.

Thank you.
