Let me tell you something about high, idealistic morals. I stupidly held them for a long time. Its a worthless, useless, stupid effort. I spent half my life afraid of flaws because I honestly felt one day someone would come around and acknowledge them and I'd be rewarded.
Theres nothing to be afraid of out there. You honestly have to do it and know for yourself. I came to find **** like "Self-respect" was just something other bitter losers in the game of life created. Don't be lumped in with their ilk. Not only should you do everything you want, you should be proud of it regardless of who says what.
You're either moving toward that ideal or away from it. Don't get caught in the wrong direction. Jesus, I can't stress this enough. And no you're not different, and no you won't somehow rise up above it.

I don't hold ideals for others: I hold them for myself. I am not afraid of flaws: I identify them, and strive to work on them. I don't live by a moral code in order to be recognized: I live by it to fulfill myself, and make the world a better place. Discipline is not weakness: that is something the undisciplined say. If the entire world listened to your rhetoric, people would be running around raping, stealing, and killing. That is not an exaggeration: some people
want to do those things. The way I have chosen to live my life is not ignorant: the way you have resigned to live yours is disappointing.
