Scratch that itch

Every person in the world wants something. There is no true altruistic act in existence. You can disagree, you can try, but you will be wrong. Give me mother Theresa, give me Jesus Christ, give me god himself, even they have reasons for doing what they have done.Lately I have come across a lot of fast talking, big mouthed know it alls who have promised me the world. In essence all that they are talking to me about is that itch. That little itch that keeps them guessing, keeps me feeling like they are lying to me to get what they want, to pick my brain and ravage me dreams. This might sound very drastic but it's how I feel to be honest. JHB is a place filled with opportunity and riddled with chance. But I've learned that people here are quick to talk but slow to act, quick to promise but never follow through and in actual fact are filled with horse crap.It just sometimes upsets me that people have this itch. Hell, I live for that itch, I thrive on the itch, I want to rule the fucking world someday... seriously. But it's one thing to have that itch and another thing completely to let that itch have you. Greed, jealousy, self preservation and selfishness all fall under the itch category. Don't let the itch category slip under your skin.
