Dear Hyde

I was reading Dr Jeckill and Mr Hyde,an excellent novel by Robert Louise Stevenson and I was inspired by it to write this entry.I think that we are not only one person,we are several people according to our mood and our mental state.Sometimes we try to show or best side of ourselves to others,because we all have this fear of being rejected by society,of being an outcast.So,in order to be part of the society you have to play its game and adapt to its rules.It is the only way to have a good and plenty life.However,this is not so easy.There are times when we cannot manage our feelings,and the darkest side of our nature comes to light.This is when our Mr Hyde appears, and he is not very nice.Ladies and gentleman, let me introduce to you my own Mr.Hyde.Some people think that i am a quiet young man,nice to talk to and very funny sometimes(i am not a humble person,jajaja)but now I am willing to show you my other self.Hyde sometimes appears when something is out of control,when I cannot get things or those times when everything seems to fail or to turn out as I havent expected.he tends to swear a lot,looking in his vocabulary the most ofensive and disonant words that spanish language can have(it is good to swear in your mother tongue.Healso will hit things eg:doors,chairs,tables,remote controls,guitars and other objects,doesnt matter their value or price)my own hyde is a very nasty person,always willing to hurt people with his words and irony(a very corrosive one)or to think there are fools and that he is much better than them(lets face it,sometimes when we are angry we tend to think in this stupid way).the only way to calm down my mrHyde is to lock myself in my room,listen to quiet music and rest in my bed until he is gone.hyde appears depending on the time of the year,when I feel that i am stress out and there is so much pressure on me,he comes out in the most violent way.there are times that he stays for a long time,unwilling to go away and disappear,sometimes he doesnt appear for several weeks or months,and I have to say
that I dont really miss him at that times.I think he is like a powerful and deadly weapon,because he can turn my world into dust in a little while.Fortunately,now I know how to control him.he is not a very good fellow,you know.

Interesting entry because it's not always easy to describe our own Mr. Hyde. And you've done that - a truly courageous act. I think this will come up again in our discussion on the novel soon!
