Are You OKAY?

The question rings in my ears as I try not to pulverize the unsuspecting fool. "It is an honest mistake" I tell myself. He didn't know. The WORST thing to say to a flustered girl is that she looks angry or stressed. If she IS okay you make her worried that she looks bad. If she ISNT okay, she wants you to know why and not need to ask in the first place. For the record, however, I was okay. a lack of bubbling joy, smiles and unicorns does not always mean that there is some underlying issue. It could be simple boredom or monotony. In any situation, Relient K was right to say that emotional girls should all wear mood rings. I'm going to Claire's to get mine today. ;)

Misunderstandings

How can you convince someone that what they know of you, isnt really you. People try to shove you into this tiny box of convenient stereotypes but the question is how can you breakout of that? I am not what you think I am and telling me your oppinion based on a few experiences, wont make it true. So after years of friendship even, some try to say to me "you are the thinker." well yeah, sometimes I am. but I'm also impulsive. and compulsive and so many other things. I guess the point is that you cant label someone. you can describe only one aspect at a time.

The other issue is when people are unwilling to change their view of you. Why? seasons change, time changes, the movies playing at the cinema change. So Why does everyone expect people to be stagnant?? This completely contrary to the way the entire world is. So let people show you a new side of them. Let people grow. Let forgiveness in and redemption take its course.
