I believe that we, as humans, are constantly looking for faults in people and things, someone or something to lay the blame on, because it just feel better to do it that way. When things get too tough or really hard to work through, people retract to their bubble and pretend that it isn't going on. You know, I understand the tactic and probably use it from time to time on my own. I have a friend that is constantly stuck in a state like that... And I have been dealing with it for 3 years now, and I am growing really really tired of it. It kills me that there are about a handful of people I can think of out of my friends that I can have a true, meaningful conversation with. People that know how to LISTEN and know when and what to talk about. And it's not the "I'm sorry" crew or the "that sucks" or "that's awesome" answer to everything. Lately I couldn't ask for anything better on the friend front, when everything really boils down. Most everynight I always being asked to do something or on occassion making the plans myself. And I am surrounded by an amazing group of people.
There is this meandering set of questions looming over my head from when I went home regarding some folks. I really don't buy cheap excuses really well, or empty promises for that matter. It hurts less after the second time around I suppose. Eh. I guess it all really feels so far away, I wish it would stop crossing my mind too. This doesn't pertain to anyone on me friends list, fyi.
At any rate, time to get ready for the class. Speaking of which! We had to pick names which we wanted. So naturally looking at the list, people wanted things like 'from the water' or 'the emporer' or 'the mighty king', 'sunshine'... So I just put down for him to translate Jenny.. Only to sit down for a bit and think once I got home, that I could have gotten a kickass name like 'fiesty dinosaur'. So I thought I had settle on fiesty dinosaur, only to think about one of the best movies I have seen, Autumn Spring. And I think that really sums up my life, or what I want it to be like. If you have not seen it, it is a Czech film and it is wonderful. So it's look like I will be known as 'autumn spring'. Sweet, sweet love.
