I am. You are.

Self-diagnosed as a hyper hypochondriac, I find myself sick of being sick. I suffer from anxiety in social settings especially when surrounded by mirrors. I have a fear of failure. Whether out of boredom or loneliness, I decided to list my obvious inadequacies in an attempt to better myself. Somewhere along the way, these fragmented perceptions began to read like poems. Inspired by classic Dick and Jane reading books, the textbook illustrated situations, a sincere simplicity of language, I planned to produce a basic book themed on the complexities of communication and relationships. I invited Melanie to respond with her opinion of my reflections and asked Emilio to add color to our emotions. Inadvertently, a subtle study of genders developed, integrating youth and naivety with maturity and insecurity. All things aside, it s just a few pages of love. This book is dedicated to the kids at heart. All good things, Kevin Staniec
