I may not be perfect. We aren't.

To be honest, I haven't had any inspirations, or rather topics I've wanted to write lately. To be honest to myself, no one reads these for granted. It's that time in life where, there are so much going on, yet so few happenings at the same time. It's that time where you can't really express yourself; what you want, what you need, what you're looking for. Who you are. Who you will be.

There was this author who came to my school today, I gotta say the way he writes, I can relate to. So I'm just going to talk in general, the title, at this point I haven't thought of, so whatever it will be, it's not link to any of the text so far.

What I want to talk about now, is nothing in particular. Nothing specific. Just simply everything in general. I may not be perfect.

We've heard that said so many times by so many people 'I know I'm not perfect' but why is it then, these people still think they matter. Think they exist. Think they're THE one. I will be honest, that I'm still like that. Everyone is. If I say we can't avoid it, I'm wrong, but if I say people can leave it be, I'm also wrong. It is thus unavoidable human nature, but it is preventable. Arrogance. Pride. They're the main factors in such humans. Experience. Knowledge. they're also the characters of such personality.
So often I'm in a situation where one person is rationally right, yet the other is considerate. If I think about it, both are right, and both have a stand point, but at times I just think why can't they see it any other way? We are not perfect.

Narrow minded people. Sometimes I forgive them, for their lack of knowledge, lack of experience. Let's get to the point, I'm South-East-Asian, living in an Arab country, learning in a western (English) community, I can say without doubt I have at least a taste of different cultures of half of the world. I've lived, bullied, loved, cared for, left out. I can also say that I have a rough idea of how a lot of people are feeling right now. There are certain things I have not felt, suffering. I know my place, I know my stance, yet I have my reasons and in the journey through all this, I have my experience with me which helps me think everything through. Analysing consequences. I am not perfect.

I don't know how to end this, or conclude all this. Was this an overall image of how I see people around me? I'm not sure. Was this just how selfish people are, including me? Neither am I sure. All I know is that, this is a simple observation I made among my friends, the bigger picture. When I say my friends, I mean every one of them, the geniuses, the not-so-smart ones, the averages, every-single-one-of-them.
