of crabs

They claw at you. Crawl. Creep. And snap.

Oh how they snap.

The thing is, I have never been a crab. And I hope I never become a crab.

I work, I live, I have mouths to feed. I love, I feel, I choose. I do what I must, when I must, because there is no other way but this.

I am me.

Leave me alone.

That, and being grateful that I have a whole bunch of the good kind of fighters & protectors around me :)

Those who mind don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind. :) Words to live by.

it's just sad how the image of power corrupts others' perception of who you really are. oh well.
