Support…

Something I wondered about today, why is it that you could have all the support in the world from friends and family, but when people close to you express complete doubt or disagreement in a untactful way, you are completely thrown of your stride and it all just seems that much more harder…

Yes, you shouldn’t let that effect me that much but when it’s someone who’s support you really value, then it hurts, a lot… How can you make them realise how much they are hurting you?? 

Teenage relationships…

Hey…

A while ago me and a friend of mine discussed this particular issue.. Why do teenagers want and have relationships – more specific – romantic relationships??

 Is it because they want to feel wanted, is it because they want to prove something? Some teenagers go so far it’s almost as if they feel justified by a boyfriends or girlfriend??

 Maybe they have them just to have someone to kiss or to make out with, someone they can spend their time on rather that doing  nothing and being bored…

Yes, those few relationships exist that last and really mean something, but is it really worth it? When I was in std.5 a girl told us about her experiences and how everytime you have a relationship, you give a part of yourself away, like the way you might give away a block off a slab chocolate… What do you do when you have little or nothing left when that perfect person comes along? The reason I say ‘they’ all the time, is because I exclude myself, I have never had a romantic relationship in all my life, although I currently have an amazing friend who fills the role of a boyfriend in my life…

Yes, that might sound weird but when you think about it there is only so much that you get out of a romantic relationship, especially those small meaningless ones that most teenagers have in school… all they do is break your heart and leave you perhaps empty and wanting more, in the end giving away more, wasting more…

It’s almost as if teenagers are trying to full a void in their lives and according to the media and friends and other sources, the best way to full the void is to have a romantic relationship with someone that momentarily makes your heart beat a little faster?!

They aren’t all bad I suppose but that depends on how you handle them… Sorry to say, but all I have seen caused by them is dissapointment and hurt, damn that sounds so pessimistic…! I’m a optimistic person at heart, but not a dreamer, sometimes you have to be realistic about some things, it isn’t all fairy tales and happy endings…

Some argue that these relationships train you for one day when you will have a truely meaningfull relationship and that so, these relationships as teenagers are a necessity… I don’t agree, ’cause what do they teach you?

Anyway… If you choose not to have a relationship now, there is nothing wrong with you, you might just be a little more mature that your mates…

Another thought…

Thought…

Hey…

Atlast a moment to myself, although I could have made time to blog, I was too exhausted…

Neway, something I’ve been thinking about, why is it that people compare?? Why is it that as soon as you are placed in a position of power or one that might be the envy of someone else, people tend to start “hating” you. Not hate as in the true sense of the word, but they start being mean, they start gossiping behind your back and they start making your life as hard as they possible can??? Luckily this hasn’t happened to me yet, but what if it does…

At our school te new LRC (learner representative counsel) was chosen last week. I have had the privilege of being chosen. So did a whole lot of my friends, but a whole lot of my friends also weren’t chosen. Now, some of them have experienced the situations that I mentioned above. And they told me, not to gossip, but to get it of their chests…

They say that now is the time that you will truely discover your true friends, ’cause they are the ones who will be sticking with you till the end, through everything…

A thought that I would just like to share, one that is also what I said to every single person who came to talk to me about how they felt about it all. God has long decided where you will be today, He is the one who decided who will receive the honour to be chosen, and who would not. He has a plan with all of our lives and if it entails us not allways getting what we want, then so be it… He knows best after all…

I say this as a word of hope to all who feel down sometimes… Rely on God, He will carry through whatever happens in your life, as long as you have faith… And if you get dissapointed, remember that most things in life are planned and meant to be, He has a plan with everything…

 Till next time…
