Thoughts, Ramblings and A Little Piece of My Soul.

You guys been reading part six of my super story? Find it here.

As we all know, i've been rather blunt to some people (mostly the people I care about) in this last lifetime of mine. With all things that I said, sometimes a sense of bitterness, self-doubt, and animosity can form. It's usually not targeted toward me persay, but rather toward the subjects on which I address. Of course, just like every tragedy, realization and revelation that is negative (as in, not in a person's favor), first comes denial, then sorrow, followed by anger and ending ultimately with acceptance.

Let's take a moment right now to talk about the four steps, because understanding the process will help one to understand how to go through it in a more positive and controlled fashion. I'm going to use the most obvious example (well, most obvious in my mind): Death of a loved one. Of course, first comes denial. "no, he can't be dead. that's impossible. Are you sure? Bullshit! You're lying, he'd never jump off a cliff with an umbrella!" And then, slowly you realize that the person is truly dead. "I can't believe he's not with us anymore... oh my god... it's so weird without him around... why did he have to use an UMBRELLA to jump off the cliff?" After that comes anger, "Fuckin retarded asshole, you left me without a best friend just because YOU wanted to jump off a cliff with a fucking umbrella, you stupid bitch. Why do you always do dumb things???"

And finally, acceptance. You just learn to deal with the harsh reality of what happened, and try your best to move on with your life.

So back to my original topic. When someone learns the reality of a matter, any matter, just ACCEPT it. If i tell a girl she's ugly, and that the hot guy down the street would never go for her unless she put a bag on her head and just offered her body to him, then just accept it. Don't deny it, don't get sad about it, don't get angry that the guy wasn't all you dreamed him to be. Sorry, that was the reality of it. Accept this world and the people who live in this world for what they are. So in the case of my example... move on to find another guy who'll appreciate you, or put a bag on your head and bend over.

This goes for everything in the world, the fickleness, the superficialities, the negativity, the ignorance, and just generally the way people act (sometimes without knowing it). You know, all the other things I always tend to talk about. Just remember though, You and I are not going to change the world and the people in it. We can't. For every one person that reads my blog and understands the things I talk about, two more people are going "That's bullshit, I don't believe it." So in the end, through acceptance and understanding the nature of reality, all we can do is go with the flow and learn to use what we learn to our advantage

More on that next time.
