Today is one of those days when I just want to turn to my quiet self. That
suddenly occurs to me in certain occasions when I don’t want to hear too much noise. Noise. Yes, noise; that’s what people
around me create when they talk almost at the same time. I don’t know why there
are people who want to always be heard like they’re from some group of
geniuses or something.
I have come to this realization that I might be sending the wrong
message. These people talk about me in several instances and sort of describe me
as some simple-minded, no ambition and totally weak human being. They call my
name in a pathetic way like they’re calling the attention of a three year-old
kid. If I were a book, I won’t be easy to read. So, why are those ‘geniuses’ out there assuming that they
know me that well?
People don’t win friends by waking up in the morning and offering a
sachet of instant coffee. That could be a start. Kind gestures can be a start
of friendship that can last a lifetime. In the contrary, to expect too much
from someone is not a wise decision. That’s a lesson I learned from being observant
by how people around me talk and act. Too bad I adapted the habit of imitating and
making fun of another person’s mannerism. Yes, I admit I can be really cruel
when I make fun of someone behind his back. But I can be the sweetest thing
next to cotton candy.
Contentment is earned in time. It’s funny how some try to break my ‘I’m
satisfied wall’ bombarding me with endless lectures of the ‘technical stuff’
even when it’s not necessary to discuss it. It’s obvious to me how these guys just
want to show off. They’re pathetic insecure creatures without a life of their
own. Life. I’m tempted to say: Back off I’m living my life.
