People

Its been freakin long since my last update. i feel i owe it to myself to update this blog once in a while. these past few months has been.. awesome i would say :) ive been having so much fun that ive been completely oblivious to the people and the things that are happening around me. i know this is weird but, it feels like a really selfish act. seems like i used to care so much, too much maybe and now i dont. so lately ive met alot of new people yeah.. and i cant help but judging this new set of people that ive met. old friendships die.. and new ones are formed. they're the same people of course.. but it feels different because i dont trust them? im not sure if its even called trust but its just different. like its just a lie and everything's fake. yeah so what if you talk to them all the time? it just feels like empty and hollow conversations. although i know that i should be very grateful for those who listen.. i feel like a burden to them cos its always one sided. it feels like "why the hell would i wanna listen to your stupid problems?" is all this supposed to be normal? i dont think that im the greatest listener or greatest friend in the world for that matter. but right now i dont believe that there is a genuine individual out there. i think we are all really fake people who pretend to be something that we're not just the please everyone, one way or another. including myself. we only see it in other people but we dont realise that we too act that way. it just seems more prominent in some. human beings just cant be trusted and are just too self absorbed to care about anything else but themselves. i guess the only one you can trust is God.

* Hopefully there's someone reading this then. happy commenting.

Hey.

I suppose it is true that people tend to be fakers on the outside. Of course, there are some people who are true to their friends. Maybe you haven't found them yet. I'd say the same for me, even if I have a network of caring friends around me.

True friends aren't easy to find, but it doesn't hurt trying.....

hey ya!
hmmmmmm
remember that "jumping off the chair simulation" thing we did in camp.

i guess we learnt to trust each other in camp. applying it in reality is a lil different tho=D
anyways, have FAITH in God. that's what we learnt =D

well, i can't say i agree but i can't say that i agree too. i mean i've come to learn that people whom we once used to treat as true friends aren't that true after all. and i also understand how hard it is to actually build a trusty relationship with them back again. but fortunately, there are still individuals out there who are true and real to their word. maybe you think otherwise because you haven't found that particular genuine person yet but give it a little more time, and sooner or later, you are bound to found a friend whom you can confide in whenever whereever. i believe God specially made a best friend for each and every person. don't give up hope on everyone yet though!

hey, came across yer blog and thought the same too abt the issue.Well, truthfully by experience , i believe that everyone feels the same abt friedships. For me, i call it a constant feeling of being inscure. The thing is that I can never be sure abt having true/close/best friends....but the way i see it , it's never wrong to make the best out of ANY and EVERY friendship we have.....In turn, we'll realise that true friends will prevail...

welcome back to the blogging world. Once again, i pray you'll be able to ask the right questions and let God guide you.

Knowing God's love has changed my view on people. I pray you'll mature in that knowledge too.

Don't be a stranger.
