Some fine work
Hey bloggers so I have been thinking.
My friend said something today that really inspired me... what she said was applying the basic thought that occurs in the common humans mind every once in a while..
'Genuine people are so hard to find... so rare.'
I knew right when she said that she was so right. While thinking that, for myself, its so easy for that person to then think of all the non-genuine people they have come in contact with and further more judge them and conclude they then want nothing to do with them. Its a bit of an extreme but that is ground level in my subconscious.
So I then thought, we could apply this one thought to different categories in every aspect of life.
(These now are just a few simple things I again dug up with a couple quick searches on Google.)
'Genuine artists are so hard to find... so rare.'
So many times we stand in awe of someone's work. Yet so many times we can constantly think of the art that is much less appealing to our personal taste. We then conclude in the very back corner of our minds we are non the less against and want nothing to do with that kind of art.
But as each human is, art is made so that none other is alike. It can be copied but not remade perfectly.
One last thing to tag on to the end of this post!
I would much appreciate it if those who view my blog and enjoy reading and looking at what ever might be written or posted, you might join along for the ride! Follow my blog by clicking the follow button in the top corner and/ or post a few comments! Always helps for future inspiration!! ;) Thanks!

Our own little solar system
Ok so the picture above i simply found on another blog.
i thought it was a beautiful piece of art and to tell you the truth it was the colors of the gorgeous strap that caught my eye!!
So don't we all think sometimes the world revolves around us? We all at one point sub-consciously think everyone should drop their own interests to pick up the interest currently occupying our own thought process.
So doesn't this theory seem a lot similar?
We all have a story to share. A story we see as the best out of all of them. The one that means the most and will always top the rest of 'em. Well did you see that first part? We all have a story to share? Yes everyone. Yes every single one of us thinks our own story can top the rest of 'em.
So who is right?
We all have a story to share. But the conclusion comes to 'if you will listen to my story and pretend to care, i promise to listen to you blab on about your own story or at least pretend to as i text my friend under the table'
you see it all comes down to, who's story did you hear?
Was it your own? Or was it your story told by someone else?

Life Is Unfair... So Lets Get Over It
So many times ive been trying to tell myself... 'write another story'... my last one was only 180 pages but i slowly just stopped because of one persons negative and blunt comment.
If we try too hard and then fail what do we get? We not only fail on the outside but too often we fail on the inside. We let someone down but we also let ourselves down. So how can we prevent this?
In my dramatic mind i told myself the only way to fix this common ground where i go about pleasing people all my life and then get squashed, was to simply not try as hard and to let people see what it would be like without me.
Well the result must be pretty terrible because suddenly everyone hates me.
So what can we draw from this?
Don't get stuck in that hole. Of wasting half your life pleasing people and giving your whole self to them with nothing in return, letting yourself get stepped on and trampled over is not what you want for the rest of your life. So as i now learn how to turn this around i can simply see that if you suddenly shock them by not trying as much and if you are getting nothing in return stop giving then it comes to show all they do to you is correct you and point out to you what youve done wrong.

Im Tired
So many times i fail
and you know it
so many times im too frail
you can see it
but do you do anything
i didnt think so
did you see where i was aching
you wanted to believe no
so im here to tell you
you hurt me so bad
can i forgive you?
i wrote it on my notepad
sometimes we have the choice to forgive someone...
theyve hurt us so bad
and weve tried before
so i decided to give up
and give myself a break for once

Tomorrow will never be Tomorrow again.
Sometimes we are far too afraid to admit we are wrong.
Think.
If i think you are wrong which makes me right in my view, but you know I am wrong which then makes you right, who is really wrong? I know i have brought this up before but it is a topic i could think about forever. We argue sometimes, thoroughly bent and obsessed with being right. We have to be right... but why?
Well in my instinct (but i could be wrong) it all depends on our ego and how much of an ego we know we have, think we have, and how much of one we actually do have.
