What if we followed the instructions in the box and it just didn’t work?
Would we have somewhere to go?
Would we even know how to do it right?
We’re just clueless followers,aren’t we?

What are instructions, really? All they are good for is categorizing whom the good and the bad are. If you follow the rules, which is really all instructions are, you’re good. If you don’t, you’re bad. In a system that deems who the good and the bad guys are, based solely on whether or not they can follow a set of rules, no matter how screwed up those rules actually are, is a world worth changing. It only takes one person who is willing to make the effort, who is willing to break as many rules as possible, to see how many instructions they can out-wit, and have them still turn out the good guy in the end, to change this dismal world. It only takes one to start the ball rolling and once it starts, only heaven knows where it’ll stop.
they tell you what to do when you need to perform a task. they are annoying to follow and i often have difficulty doing it.

there is nothing like a guide tucked in a box telling you what to do to make you feel lesser of a person. sometimes you feel like the product is a lot smarter than you are. what are you gonna do? listen to the rules?

Instructions are very important for baking. Some people give a quick scan and experiment with the rest. I, however, have to check the instructions multiple times, re-reading so much that my eyes start to mistake words and invent new ones.
Brittany
The instructions are to write about the word above, but I don’t want to follow the instructions. I want to write about Ryan Adams. Or, kind of, I’d like to write about Ryan Adams. I want to write about how I want to find someone else that loves Ryan Adams, that isn’t ashamed to sing along to the radio, that likes Andrew Bird and eskimo kisses. But none of those things have to do with instructions.
Instructions can help or hinder, but in the end, it really doesn’t matter. What did you think? Were they right? Wrong? Can you abide by them with a clear conscience?
Noelle
The instructions at the top of the page told her what to do. She walked down the interstate looking at the ground and thinking over all that had gone on during the last few years of her life. A baby boy who shortly left the earth and she couldn’t believe how much she missed him.
Noelle
Instructions are useless and meant for the unimaginative. And yet, I find myself referring to them, as if they could impart a wisdom I’m unfamiliar with. Why do I always consult someone else?
Andrea
Chaos results from guidance or some form of leading, as in instructions. We need it whether we’d like to believe it or not.
Instructions. I’ve always lived my life by instructions. I’ve always been told what to do, where to been, how to be…never by my own instructions, but by somebody else’s.
So, when I’m on my own, you can imagine to amount of confusion I had in my mind. Free? Free to my own instructions? Free to choose my own things, to do things by my own turfs.
Carey Blankenship
the instrucctions are difficult. You need to follow instrucctions. Withour instrucctions there is not order. There is confusion. Instrucctions were made to cradle the mind. Without instrucctions the mid would be free. The mind would be able to create their own instucctions. Creativigity would be much greater. People who are used to instrucctions are not so creative.

The instructions were clear. Pretty much all he had to do was twitch his finger. He corrected a little to the right for the wind, and lined up the shot, pulled the trigger.
Method, a way of how to do something, any particular task, its what you need in order to do something, teaches how how to complete your mission or your goal, a series of steps which tells you what do do and how to do it.

Instructions are something you have to follow in order to get something done. If you follow them, you will be able to complete a process which normally requires some expertise. They are usually written about a technical subject, by an expert. They are a very valuable resource to people wanting to learn something new.
Edward
Instructions are something I am given.
Something I give.
They are more solid than a suggestion,
less overbearing than a rule.
Bella
The instructions were very long and complicated. They didn’t know what to do, and nobody could help them. They were all alone. So afraid, bordering on lost. Yet they are pushing their way forward, through the thickness and hardships.
the instructions are to write whatever i think about instructions so all i’m gonna say is that instructions are stupid, but necessary. sometimes i think that instructions are not useful, but guess what, thy always are

Instructions is a simple word, you simply just do what you are told and don’t ask questions so when you do you are tagged at wierd, rebellious and someone that thinks you are better than others. So if you go outside the box you aren’t interesting or cool but a jerk. So if noone are themselves than who are we?
Morgan
His instructions were clear. He had to act quickly. He had to act silently. He was to get into the palace, get the crown, and get out. Without being seen. Without being heard. Without being capture.
His instructions had been clear. If he was found out, he was on his own. Failure was not an option.
what to do. When i don’t know where to begin i always turn to instructions. They always lead me right and never fail me except when i may fail them. Sometimes they aren’t very clear. Sometimes they are confusing. But usually they are very helpful.

Boys, I tell you, they’re nothing but trouble. They can’t do shit. I my aswell become a lesbian or something. Rant rant rant rant

Simple little instructions on how to live your life.
Why would you bother to follow them? There are so many ways to live your life to the fullest and do what you want to do without having other people tell you what you’re supposed to do and when you’re supposed to do it.
Buy a car when you’re ready. Rent an apartment when you’re ready. Go to school when you’re ready. Fall in love when you’re ready.
Kara
I fear I will never learn how to do everything right
I really stink at following instructions. My mother tells me on a daily basis, as does my trainer. But the one day it was actually necessary for me to follow directions, was the day I screwed up the most. That was the day I died.
WHeres the word? Lmao Llama. Instructions is it. Is this the first word for everybody? Haha they are trying to confuseee us word minded people. Clearly I’m not.. Like the assignment. Ding said my ipone, his iphone I mean with the cracked screen. Pretty purple at bottom flowing, intervals, darker, ombre! Hair… will be

If you were to give me instructions she said
I’ll go back and turn them on your head
And how do you like that she said
ON YOUR HEAD
Off with the instructions

For the remainder of the class, you will be required to hold your pen at a forty-five degree angle. Please remember to keep all conversation to a minimum, and use whispering whenever possible.

The instructions may have stared me in the face, but I ignored them anyway.
Lena Goren
instructions are words meant to give you certain forms of advice on how to handle specific situations. They may come in forms of people talking to you or well worded manuals that you read in order to know exactly what it is you have to do.
Godson Uma
follow instructions. read, write, sing, cook, do, be. does it make sense? how much can instructions help, really? perhaps guidelines are all we have — all we have in life are guidelines masquerading as instructions to give us comfort in the formality.
Sam
I sat on the floor and crossed my legs. I leant into my laps with my head on my hands. Once again, I couldn’t see where my life was going. I had just quit my job 3 weeks ago, moved across the country and everything had fallen through. ‘Why doesn’t life come with instructions?’, I asked myself.
He had followed the instructions to the letter, yet here he was, watching everything fall apart right in front of him. He felt the waves of terror rising within him, accompanied by shame. People often complemented on his cleverness, yet he had walked right into a (rather obvious, now) trap. He stood cowering in the corner as they closed in on him. His friends had either fled or were being restrained by one of the many angry faces towering over him. He inhaled deeply. He swallowed past the lump in his throat, and pushed back the tears threatening to come. There was no way he was getting out of this, it was going to happen. Perhaps he even deserved it. He didn’t know, he just hoped it would be over quickly.
Now.
Don’t.
Should.
Always.
The list continues endlessly.
Instructions are plentiful.
Because everyone wants everything done right
and right is always their own way.
