sun shines at my parade
over the recent years, as i've grown wiser (and OLDER!), and i have fortunately learnt not to let anyone rain on my parade. if i'm out to have some fun, i jolly well ensure i do. i have learnt to simply not give a damn about those around me if they choose to be anti-social, not in the mood to have fun, or whatever it is that got up their arses that particular day. i realized, that i don't need NOBODY for me to have fun, even if it means dancing alone, catching a gig alone, lunching alone, whatever really. if the clouds decide to pour, so what? dancing in the rain is pretty fun and i love it actually.
i am happy that i am able to enjoy my own company, because i used to be someone (although to a certain extent i still am) who bothers too much about whether everyone is happy. i just care too much for my friends, that often i end up being disappointed because i guess i develop expectations that these people i care so much for will do almost the same as i did for them. but you see, some people are selfish and take others for granted. you are most likely to hear from them when they have issues to deal with, when they need something, when they need someone, whatever. but when YOU need their ear, just their EAR mind you, you can't find them anywhere.
i'm not talking about anyone in particular just in case you're getting some bad vibes. if these people, these self-proclaimed pillars of support are just gonna talk the walk and aren't almost anywhere to be found, who else will but yourself right?
so dance alone. catch the gig alone. lunch alone. there really is nothing wrong or lame or 'loser-ish' about making your own fun happen and enjoying your own company. try dancing in the rain one day, you might actually like it.
