...WAKE UP.

Lately my life has been a rollercoaster of emotions,why? you might ask.it's the simple fact that i open up and accept people for whom or what they lead me to believe they stand for,only to find out with time that no one is what he/she claims to be,the discovery of which only leads to the rollercoaster of emotions, anger,hate,selfpity,heatred,disgust e.t.c.
A good friend of mine called today, a blessing i would say cos we had this talk and you wont believe what she said to me after i went on and on about the fact that i 've learnt life's lessons and would take my time to really know a person,she said every one me inclusive works hard at leaveing a good first impression and a few more after that once this happens our emotions take to play, creating within our minds this wonderful concept or perception of the subject in question there by hindering us from actually seeing the complete picture.
We hold on for as long as we can to this beautiful image we have concived within our minds and refuse to notice even when things are glarinlly going wrong,our comfort zone i call it,that wonderful place you visit within you to keep hope alive,only for it to be dashed once again.
A simple solution to all of this is to wake up and smell the coffee,what im trying to say is we should take our time to see and accept people and things the way they really are and not the images of them we want or are comfortable with,as this will save you and i the hurt of finding out we were asleep all this while.
Good night.
