Welcome Home. Hello?

  Allow me to be the first to say "Hello and welcome." Welcome to the land of milk and honey and syrup- maple and corn. Welcome to the land of bottled water and chlorine. Welcome to the land of plenty, the land of percent. Here resides the hungry. Here resides the strong. Welcome I tell you- welcome. Welcome to the land of real-estate, to premium property. Welcome to the land of the homeless. Welcome to the land of McDonald's, to Subway. Welcome to the land of plus-sized women in plus-sized clothing. Welcome. Welcome to the land of the transient, the land of the vagabond. Welcome to the land of the free, to the land of bondage and debt. Welcome to the land of capitol, to the land of endless liability. Welcome to the land of the instant message ignored. Welcome to the land of the divorced. Welcome to the land of the happy couple- happy for now. Welcome to the land of children aged twenty and up. Welcome to the land of abundance, to the land of never enough. Welcome to the land of the damned, to the land of the blessed. Welcome to the land of melatonin gummies, of coffee. Welcome to the land of moving stars, of idling cars. Welcome to the land of the clean, of the dirty. Welcome to the land of choice. Welcome to the land of litter. Welcome to the land of cigarette butts and cigarillo packs. Welcome to the land of saggy flesh in bikinis. Welcome to the land of one night stands, of never and forever. Welcome to the land where the only contradiction is you. Welcome.. Hello?

Absolutely

  I do not feel bad for what I did. It's really that simple. I do not feel any remorse whatsoever. Is this wrong? Is it wrong that I choose to work on myself, to better myself? Is it wrong that I refuse to be a part of something that is wrong? Is it wrong for me to have a desire to become something better than what I am now, for me to grow? Is it wrong that I am an adult? Is it wrong to believe happiness is overrated? Is it wrong to choose who or what I let influence my actions? Is it wrong to manipulate my environment to achieve success? Is it wrong to love and let go? Is it wrong to make the right choice? Is it wrong to listen to God? Is it wrong to be strong? Absolutely not.
