Sticks and stones are hard on bones aimed with angry art. Words can sting like anything but silence breaks the heart.

I received my first mean actual Formspring comment today, and to be honest, it kind of hurt. Just a little though. Because people have so much time to try and make another person feel like shit, it's like, what has the world come to? The reason why I isolated myself in the first place is that I can be away from people, so that no one can know anything about me, and it'll just keep them guessing. But now that I'm going out there and making friends, and having fun, people think they have the slightest idea of who I am and they judge me base on that. No one knows me, they don't really get to know me and know how I'm like deep down. And it's a waste to be yourself and trying to be the best person that you can be when others are always trying to bring you down. I'm not fake, I'm not fake at all. When I express myself online, it's how I truly feel deep down. It's a pity what the world has come to, I know those mean comments are left my people who USED to be my friend. They can dislike me all they way or think I'm this and that, it doesn't change who I am. I'm a great and wonderful person, and I can take criticism really well, because I know, one day, none of this would matter. They wouldn't matter, none of this would matter at all in the long-run. I know I'm going to be famous and successful one day and these crude people will be nothing to me.
