ing . It ’ s weird , one day I ’ m in the mall and the next day I can ’ t do it . Some days I envy people who don ’ t think . The one thing I ’ ve found about people like us is we ’ re highly creative , highly sensitive , and without sounding braggadocious , highly intelligent . We think so much more than we need to be thinking instead of putting blinders on . Most people walk through the city and they don ’ t think about it . A guy like me or you , we ’ re looking at skyscrapers thinking we ’ re gonna get crushed , there ’ s a dog , where ’ s the bathroom , all kinds of stupid shit .

It ’ s rough because there ’ s so many things . I can ’ t do public transportation , trains go underground and a lot of times they stop under the ground for minutes . Again , if I get myself in those situations I think if I die , I die , fuck it . Sometimes I get so mad at myself for not living , so I live because dying isn ’ t an option . Look at how many people , with the type of person you are , that you can influence every day . When you ’ re hyper sensitive , we have the ability to touch somebody in a special
