The world is not good enough...

Every once in a while I find a friend that makes it insufferably obvious that.... In my head I have several theories and ideas... about people... about life and humanity. What I was going to say was "Every once in a while I find a friend that makes it insufferably obvious that people are basely selfish." I didn't though.


I have friends that I don't invite over- not because I don't want them here but, because they don't want to be here; "Friends" that want a friend, not to be one; Friends that aren't comfortable unless they have a great deal of control over whatever circumstances or situation they happen to be in; Friends who want to do what they want to do, and not much else.

I struggle every once in a while with the idea that were I to do exactly what I wanted, when I wanted to do it, as many of my friends do- I would not have many friends at all. This is not because I want to do things that are un-enjoyable, dangerous or wrong but, because I want to do things that are not always what my friends want to do. Vice-versa, I do not always want to do what they want to do. I can feel it as we slowly drift apart as I cease to yield to their every desire and they fail to accomodate mine.

I'm a good person. Apparently I'm supposed to do something.
.....for all the things I would do.......
