musings.....

Another uninventive title.....but i cant help it.....cause wot im gonna rite are nothin but random musings.....theres no otha word 2 categorise it.....which makes me think.....people classify things n people so easily.....u no wot i mean....'aare....she's such a barbie doll ya'.....'he's a full on playa!'....'she's a total behenji type no?'...all common dialogues among today's youth....v tend 2 blindy put people into 'stereotypes'....its all so superficial.....im not sayin that ive neva done it myself....but of late.....i really have tried to look beyond 1st impressions.....its not that difficult if u really try.....so y am i bringin this up?.....well....cause ive seen how these 'classifications' can make people's lives miserable....


lemme tell u a story....there was this guy in my class in school.....all thro his 'formative years'(fancy language for the teenage and pre-teen phase....) he lived in the shadow of his brother.....his parents compared him to his bro n highlighted his shortcomings......this prolly created an inferiorty complex in him.....n that kinda made him a lil slow....now....none of us kids knew that....n since every class needed a 'sacrificial goat'(anotha fancy term fer 'loser')....well.....we chose him....and made the poor guy's life SO miserable....hell...even the teachers didnt spare him....i mean talk about hittin sum1 when they're down....i tried....i really did....to make him feel lik a part of the class....n he did open up to me quite a bit....but im ashamed to say i gave up due to 'peer presure'.....the poor guy neva got ova it.....he beacame more n more withdrawn.....n that increased the teasing.....i have no idea wot he's doing now.....i really hope he's doing well.....although i seriously doubt it......the bottomline of the story.....this kinda 'classification' can ruin lives......seriously!......


people can b pretty shallow that way.....n that kinda 'elitist attitude' can really b harmful....i mean how many of us look beyond superficialities n really try to understand a person.....its really difficult to be an outcast.....n only people who've 'on the outside, lookin in' can really tell how much it hurts.....the rest of us who've managed to fit in all our lives will neva know how bein the sore thumb can affect us....mebbe that's y we tend to be so insensitive to the feelings of these social misfits.....im not saying that all these misfits have miserable lives.....im jus sayin that we need to take the effort to look beyond the facade.....we need to stop worryin bout wot otha's will think of us if we 'socialise' wit the not-so-'in' crowd.....cause afterall....we're all human beings....we all deserve a chance to make friends.....to be happy....so don judge a person at the first go.....walk a mile in their shoes....n if then u don feel a connection.....feel free to move on......but chances are.....u'll b surprised.....try it sumtime......
