Greetings, it is I KnightWalker49
This thread is for those who enjoy reading a lot, or for those who just want something to read to improve on their English; if you are going to use this to learn English, fair warning: there may be a few mistakes here and there but I guess you can challenge yourself you pin point the mistakes.
This is just a small writing exercise for me and I wanted to share this because I want to encourage writing more, I want to encourage people to try and write with grammar and punctuation in mind. I've noticed that a lot of people today have developed laziness when it comes to proper grammar and punctuation, which is understandable. But the problem is, based on personal experience, when some people notice someone constructing proper sentences with little to no abbreviations and acronyms they are quick to judge; i.e. they tend to say things like: "are you a bot?", "u sound like an old man" and my favourite "y u talking like that dis aint english class" (disclaimer: these aren't direct quotes). But hey, that could just be a "me problem" more than anything.
This exercise will be the result of me trying to write consistently for as long as I possibly can, I will restrict myself to no more than 30 minutes.
Without further ado, I hope you enjoy the text below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Main Topic (but is not limited to):Write about someone/something you love.
Ah love, it's so complex but yet so simple. A juxtaposition, just like light and darkness. And just like light and darkness, love can also be both good and bad. When it comes to doing the things I love, I often do sacrifices; whether it be time I am throwing into the void, or something as simple as material possession. It aches me when I lose things, it aches me when I do things to lose things to gain things to lose. It aches me to lose people I gained by losing others, because it's such a waste of good air. It's such a waste of good time, good energy, good emotions.
Imagine you're a farmer, throughout your life you worked harder than anyone. You do the heavy lifting, you may be at the bottom as far as how society views you but you are responsible for keeping the people who put you down... alive. Now imagine being great, imagine being good at what you do, imagine being the prime example of what a good farmer is... now imagine sleeping... and to wake up with nothing. Imagine that emptiness you must feel, imagine the sudden rush of negative emotions and questions.
That's what love is. It's scary, it's stress-inducing, it hurts, it can bring you down to a very low point. Love is both a cure, and a poison. Imagine trying to spread knowledge of what you have experienced, to only be shushed and told that it didn't matter. Imagine feeling pain, to only be given medicine which soothes it temporarily. Imagine working hard for something and someone who love, to only lose them a few moments later.
That's what love is. You win some, you lose some. You gain something, while losing something else. You cannot gain something without taking something, you cannot rise without falling to the bottom to jump up, you cannot climb to the top if you aren't at the bottom. That's what love is.
Now let's talk about something no one can truly explain, relationships. We evolved to form relationships of all kinds, from being partners under a big corporate entity to a romantic relationship with someone you truly admire in every way. No one can truly say why we are the way we are, no one can just pin point a single explanation for everything; yet people do somehow.
Relationships are something you don't just get into without getting at least a wound, you don't just get in without being kicked out of it because you don't have an ID with you. It's much more complex, yet people do it with "ease". Relationships can be compared to walking on a field filled with mines, mines that don't hurt you externally but they hurt you internally. Internally bleeding, internal pain and suffering is one of the most hardest things to combat as you cannot just simply patch it up with a bandage. You have to open yourself, find the problem, and try your best to fix it. But doing so requires a lot of time and resources, it requires professionals from all walks of life, it requires so much to only gain so little.
Kids these days, oh how do you do it? You go into relationships as if you walked inside a crocodile, got its prey from inside its stomach, and successfully pull it out as if you were just getting your teddy bear from the toy box. The younger generation don't consider the long term, they consider their current feelings as fact and something that dictates their lives. Oh how do you do it. Oh how. Then when things don't go as planned, they act as if it's the end of the world. They act as if nothing can happen to them that's even worse than... their crush telling them "I don't like you anymore, bye."
"You only have yourself to blame for whatever you're feeling right now", that's what my mum said. And I've come to accept it for what it is, as it's true in some cases. You only have yourself to blame if you never saw the flaws in the first place, but that's because of love. You only have yourself to blame if you did and say something the other person didn't like, but that's because of love. You only have yourself to blame if they broke it off with you to be with someone better, but that's because of love.
Love is both a cure and a poison. You win some you lose some, something you don't just get into without getting at least a wound.
I love a lot of things, I love a lot of people. You may love a lot of things, and you may love a lot of people yourself. But that doesn't mean we are compatible just because of that fact. There's more to it than that. And you can't always get what you want.
I know a certain someone from way back, we had something special but we broke it off. Why? I don't know. I don't know if I will ever know. I don't know if they will care if I knew or not. There are a lot of things that I don't know they they know. And that's one of the things that can quickly end things between you and your partner, communication.
Which is why the way you say things is important, which is why proper grammar and punctuation is necessary at times. Everyone is different, and different things can have different meanings depending on the person. Someone you love may not get what you are trying to say, thus they either assume for the better or worse.
I know a certain someone, I said something which was completely innocent to me but was possibly hurtful to them. And that's why you need to be careful of what you say. And that's what love is. It's both a cure and a poison. You lose a lot while gaining a little. And to the people who I secretly included in this, I apologise and thank you.

Epilogue:
If that didn't make sense, it doesn't matter. It's only a writing exercise piece, to see how much I could write and how long I could write without tiring out. As I am typing this right now, I'm doing alright as far as my fingers are concerned. I hope you enjoyed the text above, if you want more of this type of thing just let me know. I bet little, if not no one, will actually read the whole thing; or even read this thread in the first place. To the small number of readers who read the whole thing, how was it? Let me know what you think by commenting down below! If you want to suggest any topics if you want more of this type of "content" just let me know!
I hope you enjoyed reading this!
