Life's About This...

Once in a while you meet someone, and soon you both discover the two of you are truly something special to each other. You share your thoughts & feelings so relaxed, so openly, and right away you know your friendship's truly meant to be...

Life isn't about keeping score
It's not about how many friends you have or how accepted you are.
Not about if you have plans this weekend or if you're alone, it isn't about who you're dating, who you used to date, how many people you've dated, or if you haven't been with anyone at all.
It's isn't about who you've kissed,
It's not about sex.
It isn't about who your family is or how much money they have, or what kind of car you drive, or where you are sent to school.
It's not about how beautiful or ugly you are, or what clothes you wear, what shoes you have on, or what kind of music you listen to.
It's not about if your hair is blonde, red, black or brown or if your skin is too light or too dark, not about what grades you get, how smart you are, how smart everybody else thinks you are, or how smart standardised tests say you are.
It's not about what clubs you're in or how good you are at 'your' sport.
It's not about representing your whole being on a piece of paper and seeing who will 'accept the written you.'

Life Just Isn't

But, Life is about who you love & who you hurt.
It's about who you make happy or unhappy purposefully.
It's about keeping or betraying trust.
It's about friendship, used as a sanctity or a weapon.
It's about what you say & mean, maybe hurtful, may heartening.
About starting rumours & contributing to petty gossip.
It's about what judgements you pass & why.
And who your judgements are spread to.
It's about who you've ignored with full control & intention.
It's about jealousy, fear, ignorance and revenge.
It's about carrying inner hate & love, letting it grow, and spreading it.
But most of all, it's about using your life to touch or poison other people's hearts in such a way that could have never occured alone.
Only you choose the way those hearts are affected, and those choices are what life's all about.
