Lecture Me Friend

I'll admit. I like to think that I'm mature beyond my years; that I know who I am. But really, who knows who they are anyways, or are 100% sure of themselves? If they say they are, they're probably lying to you. People don't have enough time to figure themselves out. We're too busy trying to understand what's going on around us, that we all forgot to learn about ourselves.

But that's what other people are for. I believe that by understanding, and experiencing other people, we get to understand and experience ourselves. They are after all, interacting with you. Besides learning directly about ourselves from ourself, the best thing is to learn about ourselves through the understanding of how others interact with ourselves. Get it? It's like getting so see oneself through the eyes of another, yet still, your own.

I like experiencing this. Having people tell me about myself, without actually telling me. It's pretty insightful, because oftentimes someone won't say directly to your face what they think or feel about you, but they will act in some manner towards or with you that gives you hints. In some ways, this could mean that having tons of friends is better than having a few great friends, because the more people you are interacting with, the more possibly varied responses to yourself you get whereas a few good friends will react to you the same way after a certain amount of time.

Meh. Anyways...I'd go a bit deeper, but you know, I like everyone else, am too busy to do such things.
