IT'S ALL ABOUT..US. but mostly ME. it is usually about my own thoughts that i convey. my questions that need answers. who? and how? i am. my thinking on plain everyday living. my opinions. not that it matters, but i'm sharing it anyway. whether you like it or not.
is it because it's just people's nature to be sooo inquisitive, that just by being told does not satisy the cravings, that we have to experience it ourselves before we can finally realize that they were right with what they were trying to tell us all along?
and some of these times, the consequences are so severe but it's too late to turn back time, and then what? all we can do from then on is accept what happened and live with it for the rest of our lives?
sometimes too, it's our stubbornness. stupidity, i tell you. we just have to show them who is right, right? wrong. remember this, people who try to help us with advices know exactly what they are saying. either they have experienced it themselves or know someone who has a firsthand knowledge of the fact. for if not, they would not know what to say, right?
but what can one do when someone you try talking to does not want to hear what you say? just hope for the best, i guess. you see, even at my age i'm still learning. the difference now and my youth is that now, i listen. i listen intently. with an open mind.
i guess i just pointed out the why. being young, the feeling of youth, living life with such reckless abandon. the "bara-bara" way of life of the youth. they think they can prove you wrong but most of the time they fall flat on their faces. and all you can do is help pick up the pieces.
is it their peers? on some, maybe. if this is the case, then it's much easier to convince the young of what is right from wrong. but when it's the adults telling the young it's okay to live such a life, then it's harder to quell that thirsting.
you see, some adults don't grow up. the sad thing, they take people down with them to their depths to give justification of what they themselves live for. maybe, just maybe, they don't do it on purpose and that's just how they think, of how they know how lives should be lived.
when things of this nature happen, do you just turn away and let them be? especially when it seems that the more you try, the more they drift away. or do you keep on trying?
you see, i learned this, growing up. my folks never gave up on me when i was growing up. they were always there, no matter what stupid things i've done. the only difference was they were kind of lax with me, they somewhat let me grow on my own but were always there to help me up everytime i'd fall. and because of that, i learned that it's better to try to prevent something from happening than just merely picking up after and moving on with life.
for like what i said before, for every actions we take, brings forth corresponding actions or consequences. i'd rather be safe than sorry in the end. we don't have to stumble to learn, do we?
