| What does the future hold for everyone? How does one deal with the changes in life in a realistic manner while maintaining hope and faith on the decisions that were made and sworn to be important in the past? How is a promise, a promise? Everytime I think I have matured into an adult, I know I am not one. At least not yet. I know that there is a lot more to learn about and divulge into, about ourselves, and the people around us. Relationships, simply speaking. I would like to think that I am more mature than most people. For those who really know me, for those that I have conversed intellectually in such manner, will understand what I am getting at. Having said that, I often wonder when, where, and how I will come into that learning experience again. When can I take things to the next level, and grow up to a more mature person? The humour is that learning often requires acceptance, a tribute that most fail to acknowledge. Acceptance is a way to learn. Acceptance is (often?) taught, more or less. I know this because people continue to teach me, in all areas and fields. And I learn because I accept their perspectives and values. Everyone is clouded by their own judgement at times, even the best of the best. It's not hard to be selfish; it's actually quite easy. But because people want to appear to be "good people", they tend to hide their selfishness, for face, or out of good will. It's really difficult though, mind you. In my opinion, keeping yourself in check may actually be the toughest battle in life. When do people get fed up? When is it the last straw on the camel's back? Why do people get fed up? Is it because they have kept their selfish desires within themselves for a long time, unrecognized and unacknowledged? Is that the cause? A mere build-up of steam? "Good guys finish last?" How do we get out of that? I think, in those times, all we need is a mere slap in the face. Not literally. I am graduating and about to elevate to what they call university. Things change. I hate changes. Who does? So how does one deal with these changes in a realistically hopeful fashion? Faith isn't just a word. I guess we can leave it as that. When we start to act stupidly, when we start to become paranoid, all we need is a slap in the face to wake up. As long as there is faith between two people, anything can be overcome. You expect people to put their lives on their line for five letters? Maybe. In a sense, it's a test. It's a test to see whether or not we can merely spell faith, or actually believe in those five letters. You may ask: Is it worth believing in faith? You tell me. That, only you can answer. I, on the other hand, know exactly what I want to take with me as I grow up. Way to make me blog randomly sis. something i hvnt done in two years lol. |
