⤿ яαит ⠀ppl suck. scratch that. life sucks. ⠀⠀⠀the thing is ppl can be really awful, but as much as ⠀that makes you hate them, it also just makes them pitif- ⠀ul. it just seems like ppl can't help being awful sort of, ⠀but at the same it's their fault because nobody's forcing ⠀them to be awful. do you know what i mean? (sorry this ⠀is kinda negative) ⠀⠀⠀family and friends are just as awful as everybody ⠀else. not that i don't love them, that's why their my ⠀friends. and i love my family mostly because they take ⠀care of me and are with me, iykwim. you stand ppl cuz ⠀you don't have chance without them. you do need other ⠀people, even if they're awful (and i think i've forgotten ⠀to say i'm just as awful). ⠀⠀⠀i think one of the things i value in a person is if ⠀they're genuine. it doesn't really matter if they're nice ⠀unless they're genuine. my point is that everybody is ⠀awful (which is the word i've been using but prolly isn't ⠀a very good word for what i'm trying to say), which ⠀includes me. i'm not above anyone else and not ⠀"awful". ⠀⠀⠀not that everyone has to know all your problems ⠀and stuff, but don't make like your perfect or your life's ⠀perfect you know what i mean. and don't pretend to be ⠀someone you aren't by acting like you feel ways about ⠀things that you don't. something that really bothers me is ⠀when people think of themselves as better than other ⠀people, in any way. i prolly do it too tho. christians do ⠀this a lot i think, but so do ppl who are very rebellious ⠀and condemn following the crowd (the truth is they're ⠀usually following their own different crowd). another that ⠀pmo, is ppl who are exclusive. i'm sure i can be like this ⠀in some ways too tho. i swear ppl are usually exclusive ⠀because they think someone is weird (which is really ⠀stupid, ain't nobody's normal, they may pretend to be but ⠀they're not, and if actually they are, that's just weird), or ⠀because they think that person is mean or smth like that. ⠀and maybe they are, but the ppl excluding them? they're ⠀being mean as hell too, iykwim. ⠀⠀⠀and lying isn't sustainable. pretending you're smth ⠀you're not isn't sustainable. you're gunna yearn for ⠀someone to know who you really are. ⠀⠀⠀it's easier to blame the crowd, than accept ⠀responsibility. and it's easier to judge someone, than to ⠀understand. ppl always go with the easier one. well not ⠀always, but pretty much so anyways. ⠀⠀⠀i think a lot of people will say something was really ⠀hard to do and give as an excuse for someone not doing ⠀it. or vice versa. using it as a justification. i don't think it ⠀justifies it. all the same, i think understanding is ⠀important. you can't expect everyone to be perfect all the ⠀time, iykwim. ⠀⠀⠀lemme know what you think about all this. with love, retta
