“A Good Will Is Good Not Because Of What It Effects, Or Accomplishes, Not Because Of Its Fitness To
“A good will is good not because of what it effects, or accomplishes, not because of its fitness to attain some intended end, but good just by its willing, i.e. in itself; and, considered by itself, it is to be esteemed beyond compare much higher than anything that could ever be brought about by it in favor of some inclinations, and indeed, if you will, the sum of all inclinations. Even if by some particular disfavor of fate, or by the scanty endowment of a stepmotherly nature, this will should entirely lack the capacity to carry through its purpose; if despite its greatest striving it should still accomplish nothing, and only the good will were to remain (not of course, as a mere wish, but as the summoning of all means that are within our control); then, like a jewel, it would still shine by itself, as something that has full worth in itself".
-Immanuel Kant

and turned it into sadness
hated the sadness,
turned it into wrath
we live in a society where obnoxiousnes is covered in smiles, rudeness in less rude words, bad intentions in the usage of nice words and lies

if u even knew how obsessed i am with the idea to impress u.
etiquette coquette..
what is this?
is it a lifestyle or a prison?
do i express myself or have i locked myself in?
i feel the windbreeze,, the only indication that i aint in a prison, i have the option to be free-
i want to live for myself
