Weakness
I believe that the number one weakness to many humans are emotions.
Emotions can drive one to do the unimaginable, maybe complete an amazing feat or do something incredibly stupid. Feelings control the way of life and is a part of everyone. The only difference is how people supress or express their feelings. Some mask them so well that you cant tell whats wrong. Others mask it but are terrible at doing it and deny that there are problems. Some may go around telling the world their problems, some may fake to get the attention of others.
Looking at it now, there are many ways people choose to handle their emotions, a major weakness or strength.
Personally for me, i mask every other weakness. (Who wants people to know their weakness anyway?) In this, when i try to express it in the moment, it always goes awry for some reason or another (Ok im no good a expressing myself in seconds). After thinking about it for a while, i would have got the answer to expressing it. Thus i mask most of it so i wouldnt have to waste time to think about it. Thinking about it makes my head hurt. (Doesnt emotions just suck?)
And adding to it is this stupid memory of mine. Seems that i have a knack for remembering loads of stuff. When i say dont know or forgot, its because i pretend not to know. In some strange way ignorance is bliss. And i use it to the fullest advantage.
A boon and a bane i say.
What am i saying? It doesnt really matter. Maybe its random chatter, maybe not. Who knows anyway.
