What's The Point

I can't be the only who wakes up and think all too often "what's the point".....or am I. I don't want to have all the answers but there are more than a few answers I wish I had and "what's the point" is one of them. I have several instances where I can pinpoint the monotony around me but I essentially mean in general period.

But I will elaborate for a bit---

The other day my best friend told me "women may be the most confusing species on the planet". I couldn't give him any response other than "lol" cause I knew exactly what he meant cause I can relate. The only difference is that I feel that way about men. I'm no man basher and I'm not really a hateful person I just don't understand what is so wrong about saying what it is that you expect from someone. If your friends with someone and you have a mutual respect for one another, what's so wrong in saying "I want......".  True enough the other person may or may not appreciate what it is that you're saying but I personally value honesty. Honesty takes courage and if you find the courage in you to be honest with me, how can I be angry. It may not be what I want to hear but people who tell you what you want to hear aren't you're real friends (but that's another blog).

I have a select number of people in my life I consider near to me and without them I wouldn't be the person I am. I love them. I value their friendship, opinion, and impact that have on my life. But there are some friends in my life that I sometimes wonder "what's the point".  Is it selfish to wonder what it is you're gaining from being friends with someone when their gain is greater than your own? Or is that what being a good person is all about.----I don't believe in conditional love. When you love someone, romantic or platonic, you take that person as they are and accept them. Flaws, iniquities, and faults all included. But obviously everyone doesn't think the same way that I do. My question is this when it comes to people in your life, if you have to question what's the point of their purpose in your life, do you unfriend them, or do you try to discover the point.....what if there is no point......Does everything really happen for a reason or do some things (and friends) just happen?

Something to think about

  1. Well, when people are friends they have something in common. As time goes by, people grow into something that may not be of interest of the people you were around. Now its the time to figure out why they are in your lives. So when you are at that point you aren't "unfriending" them but just trying to get your life in order. You can still be friends, you just won't be relating about the same things like in the past.

  2. Hypothetically speaking....is there a sensitive way to tell someone you've outgrown them?

  3. When u come across a point in your life and you wonder what your purpose is...do you unfriend yourself, or do you try to discover what the point of having "yourself" around is?
