mood: waiting
music: 'love my way' by the psychedelic furs
everyday i live my life i have to make a decision. and it's that decision that defines me for the day. should i rely on the kindness of strangers? or should i take everyone out there as obstacles for my day? it seems like any day i avoid this choice in action i lose a little bit of control over my life. each day i think, 'i'll take it as it comes,' is a day where i'm being led by the balls in every which direction. sure, it can be fun to spend a day being spontaneous, but some days a guy's just gotta get things done.
today was a day where every encounter with an unknown person was a disappointment. i mean, there are some people who hate their jobs, and some who even hate their lives. far be it from me to tell them to straighten up and fly right, but even someone as angsty and disenchanted as i can notice and acknowledge the efforts of a good sense of patience. seeing that in a person means they are at least trying to understand whatever you're going through. so when i'm in 'fuck you' mode and i see patience like that in someone, i do my best to shut the hell up because they're doing their best not to punch my face in and scream, 'stop being emo!' at the top of their lungs.
c'mon, people, a little empathy please?
