Why?

Hopefully I’m not the only one feeling this way. You can do a thousand amazing things and nobody gives you props or even notices... but then you slip up just once? Suddenly everyone's got something to say about it.

What is actually wrong with people? Like, how can anyone get such a kick out of seeing someone else fail? It’s honestly mind-blowing. Maybe it’s time to find some new friends, because it totally sucks when you realize you didn't actually know them at all after getting so disappointed.

It's always the same story...

It isn’t always like that... I’ve made sure to find people who are actually real friends—the kind who own up to their mistakes and stick by you no matter how much you screw up.
Those are the only people worth knowing. The cream of the crop is what matters; everything else? I honestly have no idea how civilization even manages to stay upright.😕

Why? Because we’re just human—flawed, messy, and far from perfect.

It’s all on Adam, that snake, and Eve with her damn apple.

I honestly don't get why people lack any real sense of excitement in their lives...

It’s always the same story—everyone waits around for someone else to slip up just so they can rub it in their face. They never want to look in the mirror, though... it’s basically just a way to deal with their own insecurities. Pointing fingers at others makes them feel superior, I guess.

Hehehe... I see how it is... still stuck in the same spot...

Anyway, here’s my little recipe for success:

1. Tell the rest of the world to get lost.
2. Become your own absolute best friend.
3. Learn to actually love yourself.
4. Then, and only then, start looking for real friends...
5. And finally, go out there and find the love of your life...😁

Some people can wrap their heads around that in a heartbeat, but for others? It takes a lifetime of figuring things out...

It’s kind of like asking why those gritty crime stories from 60 Minutes always make the front page of the morning paper and why everyone rushes to read them first...

... And the real kicker? The explanation is actually that people are inherently good... believe it or not...

Anyway, here’s the blueprint:

1. Tell the rest of the world to back off.
2. Become your own best friend.
3. Learn to actually like yourself.
4. Start looking for actual friends...
5. Then, start looking for the love of your life... 😁

Some people get this in five minutes; for others, it takes a lifetime of hard lessons to finally wrap their heads around it.

Just watch your timing and intensity. If you shut out the entire world right at the start, everything else falls apart. I know what you're thinking, but everyone has to find their own pace.👍

The whole world... feels just like our own little universe... 😁
It reminds me of that old punk anthem: "Everything you ever knew was a lie..."
I think I might have glossed over that particular sentiment while I was caught up in my writing spree... 😁

It’s probably the last thing you want to hear, but honestly? The problem is you. You’re pouring your heart out to all the wrong people and getting absolutely nothing back.

Here’s the fix: start giving to those who actually value it. Or, if you can manage it, try retraining the ones already in your life. I’ve been working on this every single day, and I'm definitely seeing progress...🙂

Trust me. I’ve been through it.

It sounded totally ridiculous at first—the idea that we should basically be teaching people how to treat us—but I finally realized there's so much truth to it. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands and start some "re-education." 😁 😁

Now, if someone flakes on a promise or shows up late to grab coffee, I set them straight immediately so they know exactly what's expected. It’s pretty simple: two strikes, and you’re out. I’m done playing games. If I’m not a priority to you, you’re certainly not one to me.

It is wild how many parasites I’ve managed to weed out of my life, and just how many genuine, decent people I’ve actually met because of it. I feel so much better. !!!!!!👍
