Wash Your Hands

All of we who make up me




Some people need to grow up… I can’t give credit for that picture, I don’t know the site. Well, I could find it, but I really don’t feel like it. Just try typing “social” into google images and that’s what will probably pop up. The realm of social psychology is one that all of us have experience with, regardless of the number of friends we have, how often we see them, or even if we go outside or cage ourselves indoors all our lives. It’s there, it’s around us, it is us. Sometimes, though, when you think you have a strong network going, it just sort of falls apart on you. Take for instance my case. Some people, who will not be named, are very bad at keeping a friendship. These people don’t invite you to things, don’t call, don’t text, and when you do something as simple as writing on their walls, they don’t budge. The thing about it is, you don’t know what you did to them. At the same time though, there’s no way to communicate with them. So you’re trapped in a never ending circle of some stupid high-school-like drama nonsense. And so on. So to get out of this, I’ve decided that the best way to do that is to relocate to the city. Philadelphia maybe? Maybe hit up a University? Can’t afford UPenn, so Temple it is. I’ve heard the people there are pretty cool cats, so I’ll probably enjoy it there. People with values, not childish dispositions and manners of action. People in my department who may be able to acknowledge when they’re being irrational or doing things without a strong backing of reason. You know, some things in life just aren’t permanent. It would be silly of me to discount the loving platonic relationships I have. I’ll discount the few that seem to be drifting away, which will soon be replaced with new, better friendships. And the ones that are strong now, will continue to be strong, despite the distance between. Because what those have are love, brotherly love, and with friends of the opposite sex, a brother-sister-like love. I’ve always been to tell the difference between these strong, lasting relationships and the feeble, temporary ones. What makes someone upset, is when these relationships you thought were strong, crumble like a handful of sand, and fall slowly to the ground from the limits of the palm. Then people question everything.
