I have been making observations and taking stock of the friends in my life recently. Everyone is busy with weddings, breakups, working, families, etc. The older I get, the more I realize that a lot of people are all about their own "show". I totally understand being consumed by one's world, I am totally engulfed in my own at times... but there seems to be a lot of one-world shows and not enough of a collective show. There's a lot of stuff in other people's worlds that are just as important as your own. I guess it's a new peeve of mine that the self-centered behavior continues well into adulthood, when in all actuality that is when one should become more selfless. There are certain personalities, that no matter what is going on they are more important than anyone else... some folks are just wired that way. I just hope that if my behavior ever gets like that, my friends will call me out and not sit idly as I have done.
There is always drama ensuing, always some storm brewing, and always going to be scattered pieces after the sky has cleared. I have just come to realize that life is always throwing curve balls, just have to make sure your arm is warmed up enough to catch them.
