Individual (Wednesday)

Individuals.
Everyone is thought of as an Individual, or would like to be thought of as such.
Are we an Individual,
Or are we simply the thoughts and ideas of others, put together in such a way as to be thought of as 'unique?'
Impressionable.
The age at which, some would say, is one's greatest time of learning.
Do we truly learn,
Or do we simply absorb what others want us to know in the way they want us to know it?
Impress.
To push an idea upon.
To Impress an idea to the Impressionable in such a way that it is accepted and carried out.
Impress your own personality onto an Impressionable,
To live through them.
Control.
To influence.
To keep one Impressionable so that you may Control their behavior.
Keep the Individual from coming to light.
Lies.
We know what is Truth.

So, yeah. I've been reading 'The Picture of Dorian Grey' and am simply fascinated by this book. It made me wonder these things, so I typed them up all pretty.
I really don't know what kind of writing this is, so if you know, I'd like to put a name to it.
I hope it speaks to someone.
Or makes someone scratch their head and actually think.
Go with God,
