I am more and more amazed about how narrow some people’s minds are. They stick to a single opinion about someone no matter what, even if the evidence is right before them no matter what, I almost feel sorry for them.
Life is so short, why do some people stick to rumors and opinions. Instead of thinking of all the reasons why someone might be misunderstood? Talk about living and seeing life in a blur vision huh? Yeah, I truly dislike people like these because they are like viruses. They turn perfectly good people to be exactly like them.
Earlier today, I was chatting with one of the contractors that frequently get called into the building. His company is pretty much general work that goes from fixtures to electrical, I forget now what the topic was about.
But! what I do remember is him saying “It’s alright, I won’t be here when it goes wrong!” it’s something I’m sure all of you have heard before, honestly? I don’t understand that at all. Does this qualify as passing the buck? is he saying it’s ok to let someone fix something he deliberately didn’t do right? sometimes I really find myself wondering what people are thinking! anyways, it’s just me rambling
Perhaps, the hardest things about realizing how far people would go to hurt you. Is, realizing that some people would go to no end even if you have decided to ignore them, there are some of those who gain satisfaction only to watch you react the way they expect you to. So, why give the satisfaction when you can just keep moving forward? nothing to lose and everything to gain? just a thought.
Has anyone ever had an incredibly good chat with someone, exchanged laughter and really gotten into a conversation and dropped your all your defenses only to be disappointed when you later realize that you were just a temporary filler for someone waiting for a call? or till they find a better conversation? it’s frustrating isn’t it? what’s the point of calling then right? i’m not being melodramatic or anything, just sick and tired of wasting time and energy on people like these.
Thank you for reminding me the reason why i had forgotten about you..at least now i remember why i felt such peace..when i was no longer trying to figure out why every move ended in mockery..why every thought ended in an insult..why every affection ended with the cold chill of your hearty laughter..now i know..what it is that i’ve been missing all along..it wasn’t you..it was the reminder why i should of always kept going forward
So, i got another stupid cold again. This is the third time in the last 4 months and it’s driving me crazy, either someone at work is spreading his germs all over the place or i just seem to have really bad luck! i don’t even know how i got this, woke up with a bit of a fever and driving has been a little pain in the butt because i feel like my head’s been stuffed to the rim with cotton balls.
All the while, here i am also learning yet another lesson. That yet again, i am proven the same thing again and again. My newest sweet friends immediately wonder how i’m doing and that i should see the doc, meanwhile a couple of people are just screaming into twitter like as if wielding a blow horn begging for attention. Then when i say hello i get a short cold reply “Hello.” now as to why i wasted that kind of time? is beyond me, can i have it back please? say about 5 seconds of my life that i just wasted?? why does life always have to include such self serving and attention craving people? is there a way to really filter out certain people i meet and tell right off from the start how they really are? would be nice wouldn’t it?
The worst part about giving someone everything that you are, is that you think they will care about you enough to give you the same thoughts. But, then they show you that all along it was always about them and they already got everything they needed from you. At the realization of this, it often feels like you are just hanging off a cliff and all they are doing is walking away and smiling. Ironic isn’t it? how well some people play their act.
It’s a sad thing, when some people think they are too perfect or too full of themselves to make the effort to simply greet or respond to someone who’s simply giving a friendly greeting, what is it that gives such level of arrogance to think they are worthy of being on such a high pedestal? is it based on how much someone has in terms of income or reputation now? i wonder at times what makes human nature fall so far, that the worth of man can be set in numbers. Am i the only one who feels this way? or am i being too selfish myself?
Sometime ago, i wrote an article on people who are so full of their own relationships that they can’t be bothered to listen to a friend that needed someone to talk to. It was something i saw on the skytrain, i believe i wrote it two weeks ago? anyways. I found myself on the receiving end of that earlier today, i was talking to a friend (yeah i dont hold grudges) about what’s new in my life since we haven’t spoken in forever. She was also telling me her story, somehow it ended up on the subject of relationships, so ok i told her that i was still single and that i was just waiting for the right one. Sounds casual enough right?
Well, it was until she started to suddenly give me advice telling me that it’s perfectly okay to be single and that there was nothing wrong with it etc. So i told her i didn’t have a problem with it, all of a sudden i sensed she wanted to tell me about her relationship. So, fine we talked about it after she threw more statements about how i should be happy to be single and how it’s not the end of the world etc, i stopped her right there and told her that either she get on with her story or it’s the end of this chat. I am normally a patient guy, everyone has something to say and i can appreciate it. But, there comes a time when i simply lose that patience. I mean seriously, don’t assume that just because you are in a relationship and happy that somehow that gives you the right to pity someone who doesn’t and rub it in their faces, she has no idea what i feel or what i am thinking every time i see people show each other affection. Neither does she know how i feel about being where i am now, anyways. I ended the conversation not long after, it’s amazing how full of themselves people can be isn’t it?
Has society run aground so badly, that it feels the need to judge and compare everything around them? what’s the point of this? comparing doesn’t change anything. Staring doesn’t accomplish anything more than waste time, i could rant like everyone else who might feel as fed up as i. But, instead i would rather wonder why people don’t just come up and talk to me instead? there’s got to be an answer to any question they may have on their mind? god gave people lips and voices and the drive to find out more, why not try that instead and feel at peace that they have all the answers they need?
It’s a selfish thing about people that just bugs me, just a few minutes ago I just overheard on the commute to work a guy who was commenting about his breakup with his gf, and his friend (a lady) tells him that it’s alright and that it isn’t the end, then she starts to give examples about how it was before she met her fiancé. I couldn’t help but give her a glance, the hell kind of friend is this?? I thought.
I understand how the guy feels, he just found himself single again and he is going to miss having someone to share everything with, I’m not even talking about just the physical side of things. I’m referring to someone he can go hang out with and share his goals with, his friend does make sense though when she says that a breakup isn’t the end, he can always move on.
What annoyed me? was how casually she went to talking about her relationship, what on earth gave her the right when she has no idea how he’s feeling right now? she’s going to get off work later and hang out with her fiancé and be happy with what she has, he is going to go home and hear all about it later on either Facebook or Twitter. She was going on about it for almost a half hour.
How can she be so damn selfish patting herself on the back when someone is looking for support? I bet she wouldn’t appreciate it if the roles were reversed and he was gloating, some people only think about what they have and rarely what others need..
I guess I have to accept it in the end, sometimes I can’t have things in my favor, no matter what I do. Even though I tried to fix the lies people have about me, I tried to make some people understand that I wasn’t as bad as they pictured me to be. But, in the end they believed more lies instead of giving me a chance.
Guess that’s my problem, there’s always one person no matter where I go that wants to make my life utterly miserable. I thought that maybe if they saw my writings they might understand that I’m just as human as the rest, I make the same mistakes and I hurt just as much as the next person. So, why can’t they stop for a second from listening to the unending lies and listen to what I have to say? seems with some people there’s just no changing their minds once it’s made up.
People will always judge you, no matter what you do. If you have something that they don’t they will judge you as someone they will plot to gain, if you don’t have something they have then they will judge you inferior to them. If you take everything with a smile, someone will judge you as someone they can take advantage of. It’s a tough world out there in a world that can be so selfish, but so long as you don’t do the same as them you will always come out on top. There’s people out there looking for someone like you, you just haven’t met them yet.
What is it that makes selfish people the way they are? is it their lashing out at the world for not getting what they want? if that’s the case, what do you do about these people? do you ignore them and hope they will get the hint or do you face them and do the exact thing that feeds their intention? i’m so sick and tired of dealing with people who put their ambitions first, from having to work 4 days with a rat of a coworker to the helicopter that’s outside my apartment hovering daily taking pictures non stop all the while annoying an entire apartment with all the vibrations from the rotors.
I wonder, at what point did these selfish people decide that what they do is acceptable and at what point did these people lose their morals? i’ll never understand how amazingly self serving some people can be, i believe in karma and all but it wouldn’t hurt for karma to teach these people a lesson.
What a stressful day, first a really messed up event at work ran by the most unorganized group in history. They couldn’t make up their minds at all on how they wanted anything set up or even find their own packages. That wasn’t the complicated part though, i drudged through all the radio calls and did what i could. But, what frustrated me the most was trying to be the better person and approached Ronda (read last post re: be careful who you trust) trying to be polite to her, to set things straight. Not only did she not look at me once but not even 5 minutes into a conversation she walked off on me, later on i see that that upstairs of the store she actually laughed about it. I guess this is what i get for being a nice guy, so i thought whatever. I was bitter, yes but what good is that going to do when her mind was made up? later through the day our over sized gorilla muscle head supervisor comes to work and is already barely holding on to his bad mood. This just added to the stress building up inside of me, course later on i realized that i was getting cut hours because a senior coworker is coming back after his vacation. The rat face backstabber, so that’s TWICE he’s screwed me over and i try to maintain my composure still. Later on when i got home, i went out for a 2 mile run to see if i could feel better and i thought i did, but no i’m actually more stressed than when i started. A friend of mine suggested i hold off on the email to the boss till Sunday, i think i’ll take her up on that advice because right now i’m too annoyed. Does it no longer pay off anymore? to do the right things and be the nice guy?
There comes a time in our life, when we have to think about the ones that really matter to us, and the ones that don’t. I know it sounds selfish, cold even but it’s the truth. The ones that will always matter to us are the ones that have always been by our side even if at one point we were too busy pursuing a relationship with someone besides them, that we never knew and yet even after this they still support you at no benefit to themselves. These people really are amazing and come only once in a lifetime so always hold them close to you, They will be there for you even in the worst moments and you’ll always be able to count on them. Then there are the ones who don’t matter, the ones that offer you everything but not until you give something in return. The ones that leave you first chance they see something better, but still snare you with temptation so you never actually leave. Yet, when you need them the most they are nowhere to be found. I know how this all sounds, but it’s the ugly truth and sometimes it sucks but at least your heart will break less in the long run.
Am i wrong to say that i wish people weren’t so shallow? that maybe, just maybe they could see beyond their needs for material things and popularity? to actually consider seeing and accepting people just as they are? i’m so sick and tired of people who only care about what will benefit them, wealth is nice to have yes. I won’t deny it, but does it really buy real happiness? i suppose some people would without a thought say yes it does. But, once they lose that wealth i wonder if they could appreciate the simple things again? pretty sure they wouldn’t.
Out of all the things I am tired of and i’m not afraid to say it. Is people who take one look at me and think they’ve got me figured out. What gives someone the right to assume to understand me exactly? do I have my biography printed somewhere on a wall? even knowing my name sure as heck doesn’t say anything about the kind of person I am on the inside. Some people seriously need to learn to see beyond the surface, maybe then they might actually have more friends in their lives. Food for thought, as the saying goes!
