why do people have to not be civil to eachother... we know that everyone is different, so why do we have to point that out to them.. if you know that is how a person is.. either you accept it or you move on... you can NOT change someone if they don't want to be changed. no matter how much you want them to change ... YOU CAN NOT MAKE THEM CHANGE TIL THEY ARE READY TO CHANGE.. if there is anything that i have learned from my mom.. going to those meetings with her has tought me that human free will is the most powerful thing that a person has.. you can't force something on someone just cause that is what you want to have happen
i was under the impression that the house or the home is a place of comfort and peace... but some people don't all believe the samethings... or they have a different view of what comfrot or peace is... to me peace and comfort is a some what clean, calm environment where one can feel NON THREATENED... be able to be themselves with out being judged or yelled at for it. where you can be free to be yourself.. do what you want (within reason of course) and just chill.
but i guess for some to be chill and relaxed is to make others feel like they are the dirt under the doormat or something. there was a time when i thought that was what i had to do to make myself feel better about myself.. but i have come to the point where to feel good about myself has NOTHING to do with what others think.. rather it has to do with what i think of myself.. and how i treat others.. and i try to treat others with the same respect that i would want to have in return..
i do miss having my own space to call my own.. but til i get on my feet.. again... (and i was almost there.. til the car accident)... i'm tryin my best to make this situation work.. if you know that your not in a good mood.. and that being around large amounts of people isn't going to help you situation.. and you do have a place to be seperated til you feel you can react in a positive way.. then go to you personal space.. to you seperation area.. it's that easy.. or do something to change it.. but don't just sit there and bitch about how things never change. they won't change til you make a concious decision to ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT...
i may not have all the answers.. and there are times that i get stumped.. but i know how to try to co-exist with others.. no matter how different they are.. seperation time is good.. it's time to be the true person that you are.. when you are around others ALL THE TIME you don't really have time to find who you are .. and that is the most important thing.. at least to me.. is to find out who the true you is..
in the last few months i have kinda lost peices and parts of myself.. but i knew that it was going to happen.. but once i do finally get back on my feet.. i also know how to find those peices that i have lost along the way.. they are sacrifices that i have made to be able to continue on with life.. some times you have to do that.. make sacrifices just to continue on your journey of life..
life shouldn't be a planned out thing.. not totally anyway.. life is an experience.. so EXPIERENCE IT.. do just sit on the sidelines and think to yourself how much fun that looks like.. go out and do it if you want to do it. other wise don't be jelious of those who do actually LIVE their lives.. don't pick on them for the things you wish you had the gutz to do..
we all cross eachothers paths for reasons.. some are just for a growth.. and some are for deeper reasons than that.. but don't hold back when you are being a friend.. give it all or give nothing.. if you give nothing you have nothing to lose.. if you give it all.. you have everything to gain.. and nothing to lose cause you know that you were the best that you could offer..
so, until next time cow polks...
