Something to think about...

Have you ever questioned yourself about the people around you? Why they would want to be your friend? Is it because they want something from you? Or is it because they are forced to? Why do most people think that people want to get close to us because they want something back? Or that we want to get close to someone because we want something from them? Can't we just be close to someone just for the sake of being with them? Can't we get close to someone without wanting anything in return? A relationship is not something that can be bought, it just happens, it's free to take and free to give, without conditions.

If relationships really must be bought, have you ever asked yourself what happens when you ran out of 'money'? Does that mean that the relationship is over? Does that mean that you have to give up the relationship? Do you really want to be in that kind of relationship? Is there really something as an unconditional relationship?

Have you ever look at children in pre-schools? They can have different gender, race, looks; but they don't care about any of those stuff. Everyone of them came from different backgrounds, and yet they can mingle with each other, have fun. Their naive mind doesn't doubt anyone, they don't have to worry about things that we seem to be so obsessed with, no pressure in knowing new friends, no worries about how people think of them, and they don't expect much in return. If only we can be like that...

Have you ever think about it when someone tells you to 'Grow up and get a life', is there even any truth in what they're saying? 'Growing up and get a life' only makes you forget about your true self and force you to live with what is known as 'reality'. 'Growing up and get a life' is ignoring who we really are, to be someone we are not, just so people can accept us. 'Growing up' is not the way to 'get a life'...

A friend told me, "when we are borned into this world, we are like a piece of white blank paper. How that piece of paper is filled up with words depends on how we are brought up". Honestly, I don't know what she is talking about, but i have my own saying. "When we are born into this world we are like a piece of white blank paper. Don't let life write junks on it or tear it up, instead write your own story and keep the paper in one piece".

Now where did i put my pen...
