A Promise To Myself

My name is Bradley Norman Selkirk O'Donoghue, I am a 17 year old teenager who is trying to figure out the world like everyone else. I have lived in England for most of my life and have great parents, nothing can deny that, but through the golden lights in my life I feel dissatisfied. I crave something bigger, in the nicest possible way, I feel trapped in a world where limitations should not exist.
My life is an unfinished painting and I need to try and find a way to fill in those gaps and find my identity, that is why I started this blog. To speak my mind and my queries about the world and my life in the hope to create and discover the identity that I don't have. My name is Bradley Norman Selkirk O'Donoghue, but a name is just a label, who am I? Who do I want to be? What do I want from life? 
These answers won't be found if I keep lying to myself and not expressing myself in the way that I should.

I can't simply put a label on what this blog is mainly going to be about because I have no clue, life has it's ways of surprising you and I can't predict the future because you never know what the future may bring. Normally I would apologize to those who do not like what I have to say but in the least arrogant way possible, I don't really care. This blog will be the one place that I will be able to be uncensored and share my opinions and thoughts, we all need to express ourselves and by doing this I will find out who I am. 

Throughout my life I have struggled with the concept of identity and especially finding my identity. 
Who am I? What defines me as a human being? And as I progress throughout my life I suddenly realize that we are so wrapped up in what society tells us to be that we loose track of who we are, to a point where we turn into what the world expects us to be. We are so scared of other people's perception of us and the way they judge us, to a point where we shape our lives and personalities around strangers that we don't really know, yet their opinion is so highly valued. We change ourselves so much that we become too afraid to fulfill our dreams and be who we were born to be.

I have no idea who the hell I am, all I know is that I want to make a difference in the world and help people. I want to be an inspiration to those who don't know who they are, the outcasts of society because that's the way that I feel. I want to liberate those who can't express themselves in the way that I am trying to now. 
Society is hypocritical, they say:
'Freedom of expression' yet there is political correctness and censorship.
'Equality for all' yet my friends who are gay can't get married.
'Be who you want to be' yet you are constantly called a freak, an attention seeker, a whore, fat, etc..

We are in a world full of people who are silently crying out for help but  it's impossible to trust people enough to let them listen. 

I am one of those people. But I am going and will change that. 
I will find my identity, I will change future. 
And maybe one day, I'll change the world...
