So I have this friend. He stays in his house for the most part, and he only hangs out with a very select few people. He is border-line recluse. And for years I have tried to get him to come out, meet people. And now I think I should tell him I understand where he was coming from. I'm sick of watching people say not so pleasant things about people when they aren't around, but being their best bud to their face. Talking badly about someone one day then having them help the next. I'm even more sick of hearing these same persons utter words about others being faux. I'm sick of people trying to talk themselves up at someone else's expense, just to try and be "cool". YOu know what. Fuck being cool. WHo sets that standard anyways. Who gives a shit.
Stop trying to prove yourself better than the next. Because guess what.........you are not.
You are you, if you want to SEEM better than someone don't try and bring them down. I've got an idea......
Do something to better yourself!!! INevitably someone will see these actions and people will take notice. you don't have to talk yourself up and you don't need to talk anyone down. Take a minute to think about it.
If you talk yourself up it will make people who don't matter like you.
While at the same time the people who do matter look down on it.
be honest, because lying only causes pain.
and no matter what you will never be more than you are unless you take the time and courage to do it yourself.
THese are simply some thoughts that have been lingering in my head. If these words offend you you might want to think twice or even a third time about them.
I see why my friend deals with as little people as possible. It keeps you away from all the people that don't deserve your time, or help. I think I may do the same. If my Mortgage, doesn't go through I am going to talk to lyss about moving away.
