Life?

I walk thru life
I stumble across life
I fumble thru life
I waltz thru life

Yeah life.

Reciprocation

I have a bone of contention with friendship in general
I know I gotta be specific
But right now it’s just not on what’s up with some of these 'friends'
Imagine how many people we call friends
Yet deep down we know they’re just acquaintances
Worse, how many call us their friends
and wish they'd see we're just acquaintances
And we don’t requite their friendship

It’s just not on
It’s not on
It’s all mixed up
At one time I feel cheated and another I’m the one cheating my friends
Relationships need work
All kinds of relationship, really
Once you’re acquainted with someone
The natural thing is to keep the tie
And things grow on this tie
And what do u know?
You just let them carry on growing
The next thing is that u wish you’d pruned all that stuff on that tie
It’s grown so much the bond is very much noticeable it’s undeniable

I need to cut some of these ties
They’re not worth the attention they get
They’re just burdensome for nothing
Maybe to someone I’m also such a branch
I pray they’ll cut me off sometime soon as well
It’s just taxing keeping all those contacts knowing you won’t contact them at all
They’ll only contact you when they want something from you
The ones I’ll keep are the one who check up on me
Just checking up to see how I’m doing
Such are the stuff of true friendship coz they miss u at some time
U also miss them sometime & just call to say ‘hi!’
When they ask for something u know they can do that for u also multiplied coz they care
The word why never comes up when u’re doing whatever for them
It’s just as good as doing it for urself
That’s when I know I’m doing it for friendship
When I feel obligated
I always look at the stuff on that line
Right now I’m reviewing a lot of those branches

Change is the only constant

I've got to agree to this maxim
I'm one to call myself flexible within limits
This time I seem to be stretching myself quite a bit
But surprisingly I believe I'm riding the current very well

This year the changes I've gone thru have been quite numerous
And significant for boring old me
I moved out on my own (almost on my own)
I started a relationship
I've just changed church denomination
I call myself an avid blogger

When you go thru the list of things that can stress one quite a lot
You'll understand why these are quite marked in my life
I'm enjoying the ride
It's exhilarating, it's scary at times, it's intriguing
But on the whole it's worth the while.

And so I win

Never thought it'd be that simple really
But is was
I think next I'll read SunTzu's book
I'm sure it'll just confirm that I've been on the right track in this warfare
Right now I'm reading would u believe it- Pride and Prejudice
I had a blast yesterday when I was on the chapter concerning an affair of marriage proposals and courtship
Donno if Jane intended it to be funny but such is life at times and these people do exist in the flesh
Pity that at times you cannot be in stitches when the person's showing their colours coz u honestly feel for them
Honest
I'm serious on this one
Instead of just letting them go on living life that messed up you do try to show them the light
But, alas!
They're the man
And so life is as beautiful and lovely and as fun as a sharing a joke with a friend

Someone's gotta feel for these guys in the flesh
Talk about blinkers and displaying ego at the same time
You gotta read some of the stuff I read and meet some of the people I know
The blast is if I were to tell you some of the incidents I've come across
Ah!! What a life!!!!!!

Twisted

Ever felt some people’s behaviour and whims are just those of the devil?
Worse, you feel they’re the devil incarnate.
It gives me the shivers that somehow I’ve met the devil….incarnate.
Yes, we all have perceptions of people we have fantasies
But putting some of that into practice is just plain wrong
Some of the fantasies are just plain evil
Right now I’m really wondering…..
How now brown cow?
It’s just repugnant how some people I’ve come across behave
And they carry on in spite of it being noted
No parables
You give it to them in their face and still
They choose to remain twisted
And want you to know just how twisted they are
I guess the way to win this one is just to keep mum at times
They’ll tire one day
One day, one fine day, they’ll call it quits.
I still pray for such
For He still loves them
Still.

Umm oh!!!

I really could go down with this attitude!
Oh can I?
Actually, NO, I got it all coverd by the guy upstairs
And I read and understand.

Seriously, people just never give up.
EGO
And it has to be a man
Fellas, I have nothing against you
Honest truth
But I'm sure u'll appreciate a situation at work where the boss' male and I'm the female
Worse- same age - months' difference
They feel insecure
They feel challenged
And if they're professional would they be in such a situation?
I'll let you decide.

Hands washed,
Hands clean.
