Food for Thought

Who really cares?My friend Naldo and was having a conversation about a moment ago, and it was then i realised that he really is apprehensive about who to trust completely. In his mind, he is going to be some kind of a bother to someone if he ask for help ever too often even though he needs it. He thinks some people always have an ulterior motive. In his case he has all right to feel that way as he has had it rough, but then who are we to decide whos life is important and whose whould serve a better purpose as redicule. Don't get me wrong im not the best person in more than one respects im not the most morally responsibe or lets say hmm... morally rightous but sometimes we need to consider the thoughts and feelings of other persons before we do the things we are inclined to do. I'm in my cubicle and my collegue across from me asks for a peice of gum, i give it to her then her response to me is "arnt u going to get upset, and tell me to go get my own"... (everyday in her opinion she asks) why does she think that. Is it becsue she has been faced with an in convenient truth as i sometimes like to call it. the fact that people really dont give a damn about you but accommodate you just so that later on they may be able to use your situation as a means to an interstng conversation .
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: THE WAY WE TREAT OTHERS AT THEIR EXPENSE ALWAYS SEEMS TO COME BACK AND HAUNT US AT SOME TIME IN OUR LIFE
Inspired by the many poems by A.J Williams thanks for sharing them with me sometimes its thoes sincere words you wrote filled with emotion and confusion that make s me cognizant of the fact that 'karma is a bitch...' keep on doing what you do its certainly been insparational to listen, to read and to share.

Playing it Safe

How satisfying is it to play it safe? If you think about it it doesn't satisfy you at all, and we do it oh so often. how many times have we thought about being original, being someone that is set apart from the rest, you know "going against the grain so to speak" but we think twice when we consider the impression someone else will have of us. WHO CARES!! who cares what someone else thinks? If we think of it this way someone has to be the trend setter someone has to be the person bold enough to say I'm me so deal with , i feel comfortable wearing a hoodie in the hot sun with winter boots on. why do we continue to allow other people to decide who we are because we are so deathly afraid of truly being our selves.
well though luck I'm not i wont hide under the shroud of normalcy because i desire to fit in. I'm Rushell and I enjoy old movies, music is my life and yeah I'm a bit emotional sometimes but thats me. right now i think its time enough we all or you all rather try to find out whats hidden so deep inside you that even you don't recognize it any more 'who are you' not the you that you want everyone else to see but the you that you see each night you lay alone in the darkness of your thoughts.
Don't you think its time enough we all stop Playing it Safe?
