JUST TALKING....

How about we just talk today, talk about everything. Like we could talk about that girl sitting across the room, nervously looking down at her feet because she just can't bare to look up. So afraid of having people see the secrets in her eyes. Or the young lady who knows beyond doubt that she will get what she wants. She knows that she's gonna have her way anyhow, but at what cost. Yeah pretty as she can be, using her looks to get what she wants and never knowing what it is to work for what she gets. Never understanding the concept of denial or what it's like to be told NO! She floats right passed you and most times you look at her and hate her. I mean who wouldn't, we all wanna be like her yeah? But then none of stops to think of all the pain behind all that beauty. We hate her for what's on the outside, but we can never comprehend the turmoil on the inside. The number of times she had to cry herself to sleep because she felt overwhelmed by all she has to do to be who she is. The number of times she wished just one person would see her for who she really is and not what she is or what she has. The number of times she realized that most of her friends are only there because they know that there is some thing they can get from her. We all judge her but none of us want to take the time to know her. Sad huh. How about we talk about the other girl, the one everyone thinks is boring. You know, mostly quiet but can have her loud moments, not too pretty but beautiful in an unconventional way, loves to make everyone smile and loves to have fun in general but never knows who she can really talk to, trust or make friends with. Always wondering what to do and mostly by herself or with everybody else just so nobody can see the loneliness and pain inside. But mostly it is because she just feels so much joy in her every time she sees someone else smile. Her laugh alone is infectious, you just can't help but smile or laugh with her. kinda reminds me of myself. I look at her and think what a joy it is. Life must be so simple and nice when your joy come from the smallest of things. I wonder what a day in her world must be like. As alone as she might be, it must be nice to know that at the end of the day you actually made somebody else laugh, you gave somebody else so much joy that will always leave lasting memory of you. But then it hits me, it must be sad sometimes to do your best to make everybody else happy and to have no one who tries to do the same for you. I mean how is it that no matter how nice or good you are, not everything can be perfect. I mean take the cute guy at the end of the room. Gorgeous in every way, knows he can get any girl and every girl except the one that he actually wants. So many girls wanna be with him, how many hearts he has had to break just to get her attention but everything he does seems to make her not wanna be with him even more. How is it that we can never get all that we really want. Look at the girl that's been crying about her relationship for the longest time. Says she just wants to be with the good guy but not wanting the good guy because he can't give her what the jerk would. Uh hello, that's why he is a jerk. He knows you need him and you have put him on the pedal-stall. I mean now the good guy has to sit by and listen to you want to be with guys like him. Right there we have looked at two people. This subject never grows old because we have these people in our lives everyday. This poor guy has to listen to girl he likes or might even love talk about how she would love to be with a guy like him but he knows she will never go for him anyway because unlike what the movies tell us, in real life, the good guy never gets the girl y'all. Then there's always that guy that you are trying to figure out. Nice and easy on he eyes, knows he can get with you but won't even try. Kinda draws you in with every word, stare and act he makes. You try and get to know him but still enclosed. Like his shell is his biggest defense. And though at times he take his shield down a little, it comes back up so fast it leaves you wondering whether he actually let it down in the first place. He is actually a good person to talk to and you know you can't get bored with him but he is just there. You never know whether you got his attention or not, you never know whether he even remembers your existence and you are stuck trying to make a lasting impression and hoping it' a good one. Wow there are so many types of people that we never take notice of. If only we could just open up our eye and really see what's beneath the surface. Why is our species so complex. I mean they say we can not manage to live without each other and yet we never take out much of our time to get to really know each other. So here is a something to think about. Look at the people around and ask yourself, what do I really know about them, what difference would it make to them if I could remember even just one thing about them. Think about how good they would feel to know that someone out there noticed them. Sometimes it is a good thing to just notice someone, and make them feel visible, show them that someone out there can actually see them for who they really are. UNTIL NEXT TIME....
