Today's Shattered Star: People

If there's one thing that I can't stand, its people who purposely try to ruin others relationships- just for their own fun and satisfaction.

Even perfectly platonic relationships.

Can anyone explain to me why someone would want to do this? The relationship has nothing to do with them, nothing at all. Its not hurting anyone, least of all the person who is trying to ruin it. Let's give an example.

I have a friend, and because I like to give everyone codenames- we'll call him Red.

Now, Red is in Canada. He's always been in Canada, and we've never met. But we're pretty close friends, I would say. We aren't besties and we haven't known each other very long, but I value his friendship. I really do.

Today's Shattered Star: Loneliness

I have a lot of people in my life. A whole lot of people- family, friends, acquaintances. But sometimes, a person just feels like they need more than that, they need someone to themselves. I'm not even sure what I mean by that, but I do know that I had a great dream last night (or this morning I guess), where I did have someone. Then my sister woke me up.

It felt like there was a vital piece of my soul missing.

And it just doesn't make sense, but I'm just so lonely a whole lot. Its really an awful feeling.

Today's Shattered Star: Things That Hurt

So I was cruising around the internet, bored out of my mind as usual when I saw something one of my RL friends had posted.

You know when you see something that's not meant to be hurtful, or even directed at you specifically but it just

tears your heart in half?

And its totally irrational, but you just can't help it? Yeah, that's me right now.

Today's Shattered Star: Maturity

So I've decided to write about something that always bothers me.

And I'll call this section "Today's Shattered Star"!
See there's the technicolor. :)

Anyway, Maturity.

Has anyone ever considered that we need time to be immature before we can be mature? I can't even remember a time in my life when I wasn't told to "be a big girl" or "grow up" or "behave like a young lady". Its such a double standard! We're treated like children, yet expected to act like adults. It doesn't make any sense, its a conflicting message. If people want us to act mature, they have to treat us like we are.

Now, I'm not saying that I suddenly want to grow up and become an adult.
Absolutely not!

I'm just saying that we need a chance to enjoy our immaturity before its too late. And adults should be very clear in what they expect from us, because vague doesn't cut it.

Don't you agree?

On another note: I just realized I have to do Summer Reading!
