“They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.” ― Andy Warhol

Change.
Change is what's significant to my life right now. I'm entering high school, I'm putting on a new attitude and opinion on things.
And I'm thinking lots. Not just my normal teenage girl thoughts; Becoming a rock star, becoming famous, getting the ideal guy, etc. But more; infinity, philosophy, meta cognition, the minds of other people, our world...everything really.
I try to grasp the concept of infinity, but when I do, it slips out of my reach. It's like, everything will keep going, no matter what. There'll be no end. Even when eventually, our world will crumble to bits, and what's left of our universe, is only the ashes and the promises of love forever that proved we were once there. And still, it will keep going. I don't know what it is. But all I know is it will go on forever and ever.

The minds of other people too. When people say "everyone's different" to be comforted, I feel quite the opposite: uncomfortable. Does no one have the same thoughts as me? Am I the only one, and no one can relate? When I share my thoughts with others, are they unable to understand, because the concept of their minds aren't able to understand it as I do?  This thought sends me in a jumble of confusion.

Life is weird. Human consciousness is weird.
