You know, i wish i could sit here and say i know it all. The truth is, i dont. We all want to know as much as possible so we arent disappointed or caught off guard by the unknown. The fast is, every single person is different. We can never really know what people really think or feel. Or what their true intentions are, whatever they may be.
So the choice we are faced with is remain blind, ignorant and with a child-like view of the world, so innocent, just take the leap of faith, and hope we dont splat on the ground below. Then theres the other option, which is to be so guarded, so in control, that inevitably we lose ourselves in the process.
Being careful and guarded arent always bad things. Yes, there will always be the liars, the cheaters, the abusers, and those complete jackassery ass monkies who like to tear other people down when they dont get their way, or because they are insecure about themselves. The trick isnt to figure them out. Its not to expose them for what they are, or to brand them as the incompitant losers they really are.
The trick is to take the damage they inflict and wash it away. If you turn it inwards, it will eat away at you like a cancer, never ending, unyielding, and it will inevitably destroy you from the inside out. And in the end, you will turn into them. Dont give them that power over you. They only have power if you allow them to have it.
Just let it all go. There will always be the haters, the assholes, the backstabbing bitches. There will always be the ones who come crawling back with their appologies and guilt ridden faces begging for another chance. There will always be the people who try to pull you down with them, because their life sucks, and they dont wanna be lame by their selves, mysery really does love company.
But i say, wash it all away. Mysery does not get my company today.
