  10. We were driven to the farthest outlook and left there with just the clothes on our backs and the shoes on our feet, expected to last through the night and find our way back to a place we could call civilization.

  11. We are driven to be many things. It may be something good, or it may be something bad. However, without drive, without being driven to do it, you can guarantee that nothing will get done. Sometimes we are driven too far, and there should’ve been a point when we stopped, but all the same, that drive is absolutely necessary for our world to progress.

  15. someone trying to achieve a goal. working towards the light at the end of the tunnel. an adjective that doesn’t describe me.

  16. Zexion understood the concept of limits and boundaries. He knew which lines to cross and which lines to avoid. He knew that he was allowed to hug his closest ‘friend’ and accept piggy back rides and Christmas gifts and menial objects and things of little to no importance. He knew what he was allowed to do. He knew where to draw a line.
    But with Demyx, things were never the same.
    He did much more than he was supposed to be allowed to.
    But it didn’t matter, because, despite their lack of hearts, Demyx loved him, and Zexion returned the love with a bright passion that came from deep within, perhaps their souls, but it was something far more wonderful that mere organs that pumped blood.
    Because Demyx had constantly driven him to insanity since the day they had first met.
    Because Demyx had been wild and fun and everything that Zexion was not.
    Because they were opposites, but we all know that opposites attract.
    They were yin and yang, two pieces of the puzzle that were lucky enough to have found their match.
    And they couldn’t have been happier.

  17. To be driven is to have ambition. In order to get where one “wants to go” in life, we are always told you need to have a reason for doing so; be driven. What if you don’t know where your going yet?

  25. I was driven by desire. I couldn’t stop it, didn’t want to stop it, shouldn’t stop it. The man in my life treats me as if i’m a passing shadow on the wall. So why shouldn’t I broaden my horizons? I should do this for me. Check out the pool of clear water my face reflects off of right outside my apartment door. Even if it is his best friend..

  30. I have been driven to the edge. I want change. I want you to KNOW what I need – I’m tired of having to tell you. It seems like it should be so obvious, so why can’t you tell?

  40. It wasn’t my fault. What they did, I had no part in. I was just as betrayed as Father was — and I was driven to prove it to him. I would make him believe me. I had to. If he didn’t listen, it would be his head on the chopping block.
