Cyber Truths

The internet gives you the opportunity to be really honest, with no repercussions. You can do and say whatever you feel, and it doesn't matter if people disagree, because their opinions can't effect your life. What i wonder is, why then do people use the internet to lie? When you have the chance to be yourself, be whoever you've always wanted to be, why do people think it is better to lie to strangers than it is to tell them the truth?

The "Small" One

Heads turned, some smiling at the sight, others scoffing.
The young girl bounced down the hall, humming to herself, smiling at passersby.

'No teenager should be that happy', thought the dark haired girl in the corner.
A boy in a red hoody laughed to himself at the sight of the bubbly teen,
and a teacher rolled his eyes, hobbling into class,
arms laden with papers and a dripping coffee cup.

The girl noticed none of this as she merrily skipped along to meet her friends.
Sugar and spice, and everything nice;
rainbows and sunshine, and not a sweeter girl you'll find.

A day in the life of Kleine G;
if only everyone could see the world through her eyes.

Recognize

Death is an everyday part of life.
Only when you choose to acknowledge it does the moment become significant.
