Company critique

I once heard that 'you enjoy the company despite being poor and unemployed'. It brings a sense of different perception when this is said bringing a whole new meaning to the words 'fun and enjoyable' when spent with friends, because right there and then you know that, wherever you are, whatever you're doing, you're bound to create memories.

It is only now that I realise the very many loop holes that this statement hides. 'Company' is broken down to the specific type of persons involved. The words 'whose going?' is the subtle way of sussing out who has potential in creating an enjoyable atmosphere. When answered 'just us', 'poor and unemployed' is used as a ploy to get out of such 'dwindled outings' because you either DONT like the company going or the company is too small for your liking.

Well fine, I'm sorry that were boring and repetitive. Actually wait, no. I'm pretty sure you're the tag along? You're the follower? You obviously like having the power to REJECT peoples efforts to hang out BECAUSE you get asked, instead of being the instigator who risks ALL, fear OF being rejected.

Fine, build from the ground upagain, thought our foundations were stronger but didn't realise the cracks were big and unstable. It just takes a loose brick - one that was never in the right place, to make everything collaspe and when it does, it takes forever to restore what was damaged.

But whatever, if you can't see then what were we?

shh...don't tell!

Things to call your own:

<3 your identity

<3 your heart

<3 your relationships

When you are ready to surrender these, you are ready to start a new life.  Take care who you choose to share these with. You never who which hearts end up breaking.

priorities

The organ that causes the ability of any human function is called a brain. The importance is that it allows us to determine mind over matter, wants vs needs, right over wrong. We are conscious of the decisions that we make and naive of the consequences to come. But when it comes down to priorities,thats when a small section of the brain is woken up and common sense makes its way into the world.

It's the little things in life that matter with the larger ones shadowing them with their exaggerated accomplishments. I don't understand how people can disregard the 'little people' when in actual fact, those people that you take for granted are the ones that stick. They're the ones that end up picking up a conversation from where you left off. They're the type to say 'yes' without hesitation, knowing that they'll only get a maybe in return.

Why can't you see past your materialistic excuses and just tell the truth for once! Try to determine the importance of the friendships that have been established instead of the surface ones made to be recognized.

You should know who to choose and when you choose. I despise those people who sit on the fence waiting for the easier option. Just jump.

me time

It's one thing to have personal space and another to lock yourself in your room and think about life passing by. It's the simple thoughts that result from having time to recollect the past events, emotions and feelings encountered which make 'me time' the most effective and important aspect in learning and understanding how people operate.

I never understood why people didn't want to delve into their inner selves, fearful of what they may find. Who they really are? Who they are becoming? But you soon learn that there is more hidden than what has already been unveiled. The saying 'some things should stay hidden' is debatable. Why would you want to keep your identity a secret, unless you're ashamed? Trying to figure out who you are is both a blessing and a curse. It forces you to choose a side you want in the end and not what you're comfortable with. For 'right now' has certain limits, where as, if you extend yourself beyond all expectations, you begin to realize that there has always been an option to be both persons meshed into one. You wonder which pieces you want to sacrifice and the ones worth keeping, when at the end of the day you shouldn't even need to compromise the person that He made you to be.

This is all discovered from 3 hours of 'me time'
