which came first...

with finals going on, and things being a bit hectic right now there's not a whole lot going on right now. so, with that said, you can now enjoy another installment of randomness written at work. these are taken directly as written, with no changes made in the transferring process other than not capitalizing words. enjoy:
----------------------------

you can put a square peg in a round hole, it just takes a bit of force. either that or you file it down on the sides. kind of like life. we are all square pegs and life is a round hole. if you shave down who you are, removing a little from each side, eventually you'll fit right in without any problems. well, minus the fact that you won't be your own person anymore, and that everything that made you unique will have been shaved off to make you fit in and be like everyone else.
on the other hand, you could keep all that makes you, you, but never really be able to fit into the round hole without a whole lot of pushing and shoving, whichwill inevitably leave you a bit torn up and splintered.
so how do we choose? or do we choose? maybe we are each pre-destined to play the roles we play. either we fit nicely in with life and float along like a drone, or we push and shove to make life work and still hold onto who we are. is there a median? can one be both? one can obviously want both, but can one truly obtain both? is it possible to fit into a round hole while still keeping your edge? if you strive to be part in the round hole, are you already losing your sides and becoming more round? what if you choose to be a square peg and that's it? no round hole, no nothing. what then? if more than one does this, doesn't a round hole eventually occur, and all those square pegs then become round to fit in?
by the way, the chicken came first. otherwise the egg wouldn't have survived.
