  4. Success. Such a strange thing. You never imagine what it will bring, because everyone’s idea of it is different. People are always talked about. Them and their success. How great it is, how it is what you strive for. Is it what we really strive for? Or just some name to put to ourselves.

  5. “What? I am very hip, I succeed well in the art of slang of modern times. And they said back in 1942 that I could never be up to date in the on goings.”
    Jenny and I looked at each other. It was no wonder that the freshmen spread odd stories about her… but this was beyond weird.
    “1942?” Jenny gasped, “that’s real funny… but I seem to remember the school celebrating your sixty-fifth birthday last year. You weren’t alive back then.”
    Mrs. Westly turned around and faced her, “but of course I was my dear.”
    “But your sixty five,” I explain.
    “Thanksgiving to you for recalling such a fickle fact.” She smiled at me and turned around.
    Jenny frantically caught my eye and looked towards the other side of the room, towards the door.

  8. I’m where I need to be,
    I’ve got what I need to succeed,
    But why does it all feel so empty?

    If it doesn’t make me happy?

  10.

  14. you can succeed at what you chose
    and make sure you never lose
    the right to keep your life
    shinning with great light
    the joy you find in yourself
    grows with every day you get
    to wake up and look around
    at the life you’ve now found

    Well, It wasn’t really empty. There was a desk, and a chair, and lots of little paintings people add to try to be cute. And there was a person in there too. She sat at her desk in the chair, with her head in her arms, not looking at the cute little paintings. And she was crying. She was crying because she knew the office was empty, even when she was inside of it. Because deep in her heart, she knew she was empty too. In her head – with the job and the parties and the money – there was lots of stuff, but in her heart it was empty.
