November 13th, 2007 Keep Writing

To start with, I owe someone a favour:

This sign means to stop the car, the arrow is not pointing at the direction the car should go. I was the only one who did not know what it actually means before I nearly got someone killed. We are laughing about it now, but I can recall freaking out at that moment. The hysteric laughters were only to hide my nervousness and endless embarrassment. I cannot believe such silliness was forgiven.

I can remember someone I used to care a lot looking at a short piece of my writing. He read it aloud, and asked me what it meant in a questioning manner, as if I was trying to conceal something or hide things from him. I found it very insulting. Explaining wouldn’t be a problem (although, without a basic understanding of each other any explanations would be useless), but it never felt good to be suspected. This was a trifle I had ignored which had caused some unpleasant consequences. Trifles tell you a lot about people, and I have grown to trust observations. Friendship and/or relationship wise, if you don’t get along, you don’t get along. And getting along is really the most important thing of all. If you argue all the time, it will not work.

Why am I saying all this? I do not know. Maybe I enjoy being random or cryptic (not so in this case)? I have recently realised the importance of keeping track of your thoughts, regardless of how silly or embarrassing they are. Here it goes.
