Why Are You Like This?

I used to accuse everyone else of being weird until I came to the realization that it’s me that’s weird.🤷‍♂️
 
I get asked this all the time by my own family. I have always been this way. It used to scare my mom to death and and she only knew less than half of the crazy stuff I ever got into. It's part of the package. I know it freaks the fam out sometimes, because they know I'll do it, whatever it is.

So to answer, It is a certain reckless curiosity, that finds me in sometimes difficult predicaments of my own making. It is the spice of life and thrills me. I want to live, fully, and experience. Nowadays, I am more measured and planning in my escapades. Though the recklessness is always still there, eager to be unleashed.

Playing house, is not enough.
 
A dear friend asked me this question this morning. I've been thinking about ever since. The truth is that I have no idea why I'm like this. If a stranger approached you and asked, "Why are you like this?" What would your answer be. (btw I'm going to do this to random strangers today. Why am I like this??)
A combination of nurture where that was, lack thereof in places, environment, genetics, and personal choices.
 
Because of the sheer fucking determination that everything will change for me this year...
