| I've learned a lot these past few months. Mostly from the guys I've been hanging out with lately. And since I've learned so much about myself, the world, and the people around me..I decided I would fill you in on the secret of life.
ha. sounds like the lion king.
- Promises arent real unless you make them real
Think of all the times that someones promised you something. Not just something small, like going to the mall, but something you really wanted. Think of the promises that have been broken and then think of why they were broken. Was it your fault? Did you not hold up your end of the bargin? Perhaps things you want dont always come to those who rush into things, but on the other hand, the ones that wait dont get what they want either, do they? I figure, you have to be somewhere in the middle to actually get your way; not rushing it, but not waiting for it either. So next time someone promises you something, 1) make sure you keep your side of the deal and 2) if for some reason this promise doesnt seem to be coming true, work for it; just because you want it, doesnt mean you'll get it.
- Kisses from boys could mean nothing.
Now, think of that special someone you've had a crush on forever. Think of the things they've said to you. Think of the reasons you like them. Think of them giving you a kiss. Now, think of that kiss meaning nothing. Think of it as a kiss from a friend. Wouldnt that hurt? I've learned that boys will do anything to get a little something. Even if that means hurting the people close to them. So girls, beware of the assholes out there, and stick with the good guys that wont hurt you. Or kiss you and diss you.
- Things you say most definately come back to haunt you
Karma. Ever heard of it? Yeah, it sucks and it seems that girls get it the worst. That boy you liked? You told your friend and she told him. How rude, right? Now that boy is avoiding you. You're crushed. Next time your definately going to think about who you tell things to before you do it, right? Thats what everyone says. Say someting stupid on accident? Your getting bullets for it. Dont you hate how things are so screwed up with you and a friend. One bad move could send your friend into i-hate-her mood. This lesson isnt telling you not to speak your mind, but I am telling you to watch how you say the things running through your head. Next time you hear a rumor, make sure you dont let it get to you and spread it around more. It'll kick you in the ass sometime.
- No one will truely know who you are until you know yourself
I love how everyone says 'you know me better than i know myself.' Isnt that the perfect quote? The funny thing? Thats not even the slightest bit true. If you havent fully gotten a hold on yourself, know yourself 100%, no one else will truely know you. The way you act for one person could be the total opposite of the way you act for someone else. The solution to this major problem? Take a day off for yourself. Go for a walk and think of your life. Look back on the good times you have with friends, both new and old, and think about all times you wanted to just leave the scene of the crime and disappear for a while. Cool off for the day and get to know yourself. Then go back to your friends and show them how much more understanding of yourself you are.
- Crying in bed for a whole weekend will not make him come back
Now, I know girls do this all the time. It's one of those movie things. You think because it works out for the hopeless romantics in the movies it should work for you, right? Wrong. Sitting in bed, eating a box of chocolates, for a whole weekend wont make him come back to you. And your friends will most likely get annoyed with you after a while and you'll sit there alone. Dont cry over him for too long. The faster you get over him, the faster you'll be able to go out and have fun again. Think of it this way, your relationship with your boyfriend of a year just ended and your crushed. All you want to do is go rent a few romantic movies, get a box of chocolates, and sit in bed and cry. Forget the movies and dont waste your time getting fat with the chocolates. Sure, crying will help you a little, but dont lock yourself away in your room. Go out with your friends to a club, or a sport with a bunch of guys you know, or even dont know, and have fun. Flirt and be single. The more guys you flirt with, the better you'll feel.
- What doesnt kill you will make you stronger; what makes you stronger can kill you
Now I know all of you have heard the saying 'what doesnt kill you will only make you stronger.' Trust me, I've gone by this saying for a huge part of my life. Nothing in life is going to kill you, unless you let it and it will indeed make you stronger. But on the other hand, look at it from a different point of view. What makes you stronger could be killing you piece by piece. Now I know your thinking, what is she talking about? Think about it. It didnt kill you the first time, so you built up the system to defeat it, but you still feel hurt. You will always feel that pain. More and more pain build up, along with that wall that forms when it hurts you. The more pain, the harder it is to build up that wall. Soon enough, its going to break and then what? Your going to lose it all.
So for all you girls out there, dont let the boys make you crazy, save yourself before saving your friends, and make sure you think about things before you let yourself get into it.
