The cool thing to do
Apparently LJ is the cool thing to do again.
On a quick note, everything's cool at the moment in NM. Meeting cool people, going to bad-ass parties, got another safe-house on the map. Getting pretty good at quarters. Anyway.
I've changed out here in the desert, and here's how.
Unimportantly, I've lost some weight and gotten in better shape. Wish I had someone to hoop with. Still have a ways to go before I'm happy with myself.
More importantly, I've come to understand what being a good person is.. to me.
To me, it means being honest, and reliable to your friends. I don't trust anyone who says they'd do anything for anyone. Let me define reliable.. To me, it means that once you say you'll do something, you'll do it and NOT bitch about it.
I was already a pretty reliable person in some ways. I'd give rides when I could and always had a place to crash and money to lend. But I'd be damned if I didn't let everyone know it.
From now on (or until the next metamorphosis) I'll do anything for my friends selflessly... or not at all. Truthfully, if it's not an emergency, and it would put me off enough to make me pissed about it... Not happening.
Jesse and I had a good talk about people the other day and I concluded after the talk that ANYONE can be cool and interesting for a few hours... But it's the energy to a person that makes them worth knowing. The energy of their passions, emotions, convictions (you know what I mean), and goals.. When you have no idea what you want to do, or you're not doing anything to get there, your energy turns inward and makes you into a real asshole or a total fucking psycho.
Not saying people with direction can't be psychos or assholes, of course.
And to Jesse, you believe that Jordan and I don't think LJ is the place for your bitch-rants because we just don't like being called on it where everyones see it...
...I really doubt EVERYONE reads your LJ.
Personally, can't speak for Jordan, I don't think LJ is the place for it because it doesn't change anything. Not only that, but you don't say any of this shit to our face. Well, you might've said it to Jordan's, wasn't there for it if you did, but never mine. Not saying what you said wasn't true, but say what you have to say about me... to ME first. I'd just appreciate it.
Further, it doesn't change anything because whatever you have to say on here is automatically put in such an impersonal way. Nothing you say in a blog will ever be taken as seriously as what you say to someone's face, or even on a phone... Anything you say on here is so much weaker than what you say TO SOMEONE.
Peace.
