Happy Independence Day.

Here's a random list of things I'd like to say right now to make anyone reading this feel a little bit more insecure. I'm sure we all could think of so much more.

1. You'll always be a mistake in your parents' eyes.
2. You look fat in it; you'll always look fat unless you do something about it.
   
3. The wart on your nose isn't as big as the wart by your cunt.
4. Your grandmother was the town whore; as was your mother. You can guess where this is heading.
5. You can't stop the itching, can you?
6. Hurting yourself doesn't solve anything. Then again, I'm perfectly happy.
7. I pity you. You're always so sad.
8. He knows about it. I think you should reconsider.
9. You might feel like the life of the party. But honey, everyone's laughing at you.
10. You're so fucking ignorant.
11. There's a reason why you've been left behind. Nobody wants you.
12. I don't want you.
13. It's such a pity when your best friend walks out on you. But it's sweet, since you deserve it.
14. Being smart hasn't taken you anywhere great yet.
15. All you do is throw your money at people. You've never learnt how to walk on your own. And you never will.
    
16. You're so sheltered and naive, despite believing otherwise.
17. Your dog's dead. Nobody cares.
18. Nobody gives a fuck about you anymore.
    
19. Shut up and get some help already.
20. She's probably cheating on you.
21. He's probably cheating on you.
22. You'll never be absolved of your sins until the day you die.
23. There is no Heaven.
24. Things don't get better.
25. Things only get worse.
26. My relationship with God has nothing to do with you.
27. You might be ashamed of your family, but they love you and you'll never see that til it's too late.
28. You're getting older.
29. All you're good for is finding a rich husband. But time's running out; you're not getting any younger.
30. I'm sorry, but you're really not as pretty as you think.
31. Your lack of English proficiency makes you a laughingstock. And it also guarantees that people like me find jobs. Then again, your daddy will probably find you one anyway, so you've got nothing to worry about.
32. Travelling around the world doesn't make you any more cultured if you don't know anything about your home.
33. My accent's real, unfortunately. And I'm good enough to know when someone's faking.
    
34. Using God as an excuse is weak.
    
35. She was always better than you.
36. She's somebody else's now.
37. You're a walking cry for help. In the wrong direction.
38. He's never been true to you.
39. Nobody loves you.
40. You're going to die. Alone.

No, I'm not angry with the world. But I was just thinking about how difficult we make it whenever we have to face some strange inner demons; instances where the solutions are easy to find; trivial insecurities that we've got niggling within ourselves.

I don't mean to sound like Roger Hodson, but for fuck's sake, find the inner strength from within and get over it.

Because you're the only one who can.
