Well, today i felt...resigned.
It's when you realise things have changed and you don't know who to blame. So you blame no one, you tell yourself that there's not a thing you can do about it.
I know i'm a pretty boring person. But i have no clue how to change that
Silence
What is it about silence that makes people uncomfortable? It's sad when you used to be able to talk about everything under the sun. When you used to feel a bond so undeniably strong, only to watch it fall to pieces years later. When silence should be comforting but it only brings forth unease. Why is that?
Awkward
I hate awkward moments. More like i hate feeling awkward, when i'm unsure what to do, what to say. When i feel so uneasy in my own skin. And i especially dislike being placed in a completely new environment.
What do you do when you're placed among a group of strangers who already know each other really well? When they're having their own private conversations, laughing at inside jokes and you're there sitting awkwardly like a loner?
Do you butt in and join in their conversation? And they'd think "Who does she think she is, butting in our convo like that? " or "Omg she's so extra".
Do you introduce yourself when no one bothers to introduce themselves to you?
Me: "Hey, what's your name?"
person: "XYZ"
................
*Silence, Me waits for the person to ask my name but person never does*
Or do you just sit there and entertain yourself?
And they'd glance at you discreetly thinking "Why's she so quiet? Weird."
Yea, awkward social moments.
Quiet
Why is it wrong to be deemed quiet? Is being quiet a crime?
I think being quiet is a gift.
Then so is being loud.
If everyone's generally loud and always talking, who's there to listen? God made all of us different and I think it's time people accepted and appreciated that. We all have our own talents, no matter how non-descript we may be.
Sometimes you ask, "Why's she so quiet?"
As though there's something wrong with her.
Surely she has her reasons.
Maybe she has nothing to say, maybe she doesn't know what to say or how.
Maybe she just chooses not to.
Maybe it's hard for her to be something she's not.
Just saying.
I know how it feels
I've been there.
