Into hoping it’s more then what it is? Perhaps we do just that. Fool ourselves into thinking something is more then what it really is. Why do we do this? Could it be simply it’s what our heart wants, and we can’t help but hope the other is sensing, feeling the exact same way? Could it be that we are to fearful of the outcome if we do come right out and ask…. Is this more to this then what is on the surface? Could it be that we finally want, not that we need it, but want something more and are unsure how to approach the subject with said other?
In whatever type of relationship you are having, it’s really important to keep it real, keep it real, and keep it real! So why are we afraid to share, ask and expect a simple real answer? Unfortunately in this day and age it’s a number of reasons. You have a 50/50 chance that the other is on the same page that you are on. You have the chance that the other is not seeking anything more then what it, sex, so called friendship, blah, blah blah. You have a chance that once you open up to the other, they aren’t quite where you are at, but are open to the idea of it all. With any of those, you have a chance of emotions coming to surface and you need to find away to manage them.
I’m pretty sure we all read into what is put in front of us in some way shape or form. Does this make us Foolish? We take what people tell us, and consider it honesty, being open, being adult. Yet there are times, that is is all pulled away from us, because of misrepresentation . This of course comes on many levels. We wonder why some are jaded. We wonder why some hold so much in and burst at the flames when they can’t take it in anymore. We wonder how someone can do this to each other. When in reality isn’t all we want in the long run is to be heard, to be respected, to be ourselves, to not feel judgement, to always be able to keep it real?
Here is what I know…….
I have mentioned this a few times before, just keep it real.
When you keep it real with yourself, you keep it real with everyone around you. We are better humans by keeping it real.
Remember growing up, what you were taught… Simple things… It doesn’t have to difficult. KISS (Keep it simple silly)… Be nice to each other. Use your manners. Say please and thank you. Be gracious and understanding, listen, don’t just hear what someone is saying, listen to them. You might learn more then you realize if you just listen.
So what I know………. is Foolish thinking is OK…. Just know what is real and what is not. Foolish thinking is your clouded mind pondering the wonder that is your moment, with or without someone, it’s moments we ponder and ponder hard about. Doesn’t make us Foolish……It makes us more aware….
