Nobody’s boring. just misunderstood.
As I weave through countless people, I occasionally find someone who will pour out their life drop by drop to me.
Each stranger turns to an acquaintance eventually into a friend.
Everyone has their own interesting story, we just need to keep silent and listen. And listen I did, thank you Will.
Unlike school, I need not notes on what I’m listening about, you just learn something about that person every time that person talks and you listen.
Before you do anything else, you should first think about what you will do, would be of any good or benevolence? what is it for? is it necessary? what good will come out of it? what do you want to prove? what would happen afterwards? will you regret it?
I really need to focus on this one, this is something very delicate. i’d feel like a slithering jerk afterwards, but then, something is pushing me forward. i dont know what would happen afterwards. is it worth it? i’d like to help. to relieve burdens, to bring joy, to love. yet, something is holding me back. things might not be the same afterwards. things might just *poof* vanish to thin air. maybe failure or rejection could be my enemy, a friend of my fears.
but then, could there be some light in all of this? hope perhaps? would it be enough to push me towards the goal? i could only speculate and say no. but then again, would it be impossible? i say no. It might be painful and difficult, but hey, an achievement through hard work is sweeter than something you didn’t work for at all.
maybe it would not be a loss completely. something else might be learned. something better might be gained. who knows?
should the Leap of Faith be taken? I’d toss a coin. =)
