Things I live by...

The first thing that comes to mind is a conversation I had a few nights ago with a good friend. It's about confrontation. I was discussing how BAD he was at confronting people. Not necessarily getting on people about something that happened, or whatnot, but if anything happens to him in his life that might be a little uncomfortable, he simply pushes it under the rug and pretends that it never happened. I, on the way way other hand, I do not push it under the rug. I don't mind confrontation, not that I LOVE it, but I think it is good to say things how they are. This is probably one of my weaknesses, but why not just be blunt about things. what? to save the other person or myself humility that they/I will eventually feel, whether it be in the comfort of their/my closet or in front of all their/my friends, eventually everyone will feel it. The feeling of embarassment is inevitable in this life. I guess I just figure might as well live it up. Why hide from the truth? I think our world does that a lot. We pretend that everything is fine and that we are all perfect and no one ever should feel embarassed and if they do, we pretend that they arent. Embarassment is funny. When I get embarassed my face goes tomato red and my whole body gets hot and I KNOW everyone can tell I am embarassed. Thats just what happens. I know it, they know it, whats the point in hiding it?

Another thing I live by, which is similar to the previous "thing" is honesty. Whoever said "honesty is the best policy" was right on. Sometimes it may get you into trouble, but other times it may just get you out of trouble. Like I said before, what do we all have to hide so much from? Everyone does stupid things, no one is perfect, yeah, so! I guess I just think that there is no better way to live but honestly.

I couldnt live without The Office.
