Fantasy vs Reality
Am i too easy going? Am i too soft hearted? What is it about me that makes people think that i can be taken advantage of? What is the meaning of friendship when there is no respect between the people of which a friendship bond is suppose to have developed?
I'm starting to wonder whether it is a defect in my personality, or whether it is common for people to take advantage of one another. Am i that easy to be trodden over? What is it about me... Is it my own fault that people perceive me like this?
I want to have a heart of stone... and skin as thick as leather... I want to be unforgiving... and i want to be selfish! People don't deserve my kindness and i don't deserve they're ungratefulness.
Gratitude! Respect! Honesty! Sincerity! These words exist in the dictionary so why don't they exist in reality?!

I know how you feel. I can see it everywhere around you. Sometimes you just have to be coldhearted to make ppl awake. It's not that you're bad, it's just you don't deserve being pushed around like that. Be yourself!

Andrew Liew... You might want to know that you were the one who inspired me to write this. :) Don't even try to twist it around and make this sound like a compliment to you.
