Secret and the Me generation

Wanna hear a secret? There's a few people I secretly wish come through here occasionally to read my blog. I want them to understand what I'm thinking. I want them to know that I'm learning, bit by bit. I want them to know. About me. Me. ME! Its all about me. I write tons of meaningful things in here, or at least stuff I think is meaningful, so I want people to read it. I want everyone to carefully read through each article and really think about it. Because what I'm saying is just so goddamn important. Because I'm so goddamn important. I'm a great person, not just a decent person with a greatly overinflated ego. I'm becoming smarter, wiser, older, and it's really important that everyone find out. Come say hello to Mr-I'm-Too-Good-To-Post-On-Facebook.

But really, how does one born in this time of pampered children and war torn civilizations escape this "me" thing? It's not just consumerism. Its in *me* too. Its the way I think. How do I change the way I think? I wanna be a better person. I wanna be the best person, so everyone looks at me and thinks "he's the best person".  Is that the real question you should be asking? Do you need to change the way you think? Can you do that? Hell no. Not yet, anyway.
