When we offer someone the gift of friendship, we open our hearts to them... Shouldn't that be what friendship is? Letting someone know you, reaching out to them and showing them who you are...
Or is that just what we want to believe?
When we were young, it used to be... But now, away from our sheltered lives, friendship just does not seem as simple as I used to remember...
There are just so many hidden agendas and vested interests when it comes to making friends... Everyone wants something...
The beautiful simplicity of making a friend has become completely lost in the process... Swallowed up by human greed and personal gain...
So much so that sometimes it makes it so difficult for us to open our hearts to make new friends... There grows the fear of betrayal, of being used and carelessly tossed aside... But, we must still try, for it is friendships that teach us, that nurture us and mould us into what we are...
And maybe one day we can make friends like we once did...

Thoughts and the occasional deep shit...

maybe, just maybe, but maybe always means no, no?
no... maybe means maybe yes, maybe no... sometimes...
the direction the world heads is dictated by how humans respond to incentives
when we were children we saw life as it was. simple, unassuming, innocent, through our eyes, the world was candy-coated. we fall into the trap of assuming life was how we saw it as children
but nobody ever said life was easy or life was going to be fair
in this crazy world where humans are measured by their material belongings, keep the faith, the faith of love, the truth that will set us free
family first because when the gold coins are used up, champagne corks are popped, and success have left us only the bitter after taste, people leave, responding to incentives, family is all we got..
:)
come back home
family is not all we got... it is all we ever had, all we will ever have...
incentives need not necessarily only be material... they can come in many other forms e.g. friendship, love...
i think people respond more to the strength and attractiveness of other incentives and also more to their surroundings...
it is easy that we don't want to be part of our environment, and that we want our environment to be a part of us... but, i think it is our environment(s) which make us who we are...
btw, what flavour captain crunch are you?
