The art of being human
So throughout my life I have come across many different people from all walks of life. I have been best friends with druggies, alcholics...you name it and its probably a type of person that has been important to me at some point or another in my life.
As I have come to know...that I am a friend of all these people but that they have only included me in certain aspects of their life. For the most part people only include me in the part of their life that is innocent and pretty simple. I am befuddled to know that the same people that I spend large periods of time with, become completly different people when they arent with me in my world. And sometimes I wonder if it is because I never took enough interest or showed I cared enough to be included in this other life of these people. But then after being told by one of my close friends... "I will never put you in a situation that I dont want you to be in" (**Meaning with drugs or with people that I dont car to be around**) And as much as I respect that and am glad to hear that someone wouldnt want me to be indangered. But I also dont understand that if it is a situation and lifestyle that I am just not included in...not that I want to be...but that if someone who tells me that they care too much about me to put me in a situation that is obviously detrimental. Why would they allow themselves to be put in the situation that they are disapproving me to be apart of?
This will probably be a question that will always make me wonder about mankind. But I also dont know how it is possible for someone to have two completely different lifestyles, and each side being kept totally independent of another. I guess when one doesnt want two paths of his life to cross, he protects them.
