Subject: queries of my wondering mind.....
as i was taking a shower, my mind somehow wondered off onto this tangent which inspired me to write:
if theres one thing that i hate about other people is how they sort of take one picture of you and assume that thats how you always are...how you always will be. [ill put this a couple ways because i dont think that sounded as clear as it did in my head]. people that you know have this image of you, kind of this mold made out of unbreakable, immovable material, that if you fail to fit into because for one day, for an hour, or even a minute you decide to deviate from that mold, they are absolutely taken aback by that. its about images. its about how people see you as what you "appear to be"----and it makes me think that if the people you think know you best are the ones to be surprised when you struggle to reshape that mold, why are they the ones who supposedly "know you best"? i know, that we've all tried to dent our molds every once and a while, you know, test something new out---find a new...."shape". sometimes its hard for others to accept this new shape we want to take...it freaks them out. i know we dont like change, because ive been the one whos been freaked out before, but when you think about it, if no one dented their molds every once and a while, no ones mold would have room enough for them to grow.
