Who Are We Without Friends?

Friends. We are lonely, lost, bored, sad, depressed, have bad self images, and low self esteem without them. But really, the same applies to when we do have them. You can stand in a crowd and still be lonely. You can think you have a person all figured out, when in reality, you don't even know. You can be hanging out with friends, but still be vacant minded and bored. You can think that people like you, only to find out it isn't true. You can think that people want to be friends with you, only to find out that really, they don't.
People are people. There really isn't any other way to put it. Since the beginng of time people have been people ad until the end of time, people will be people. We have emotions, feelings, actions, thoughts, and words. We need to feel loved. We need to feel like we belong. We need to feel needed. We have jealousy. We have envy. We have sadness. We have desires. We have wants. We have needs. And when all these things mesh together, you get one big mess of human.
Everyone is concerned about number one, me, myself, i. But at the same time we are so concerned with everyone else, what they are doing, what they are saying, what they are wearing, who they are talking to, and where they are and when they're there. When will we become less concerned about them and more concerned about me? When will we become less concerned with me and more concerned with them? It's a never ending cycle. No matter what we do, it's never perfect, it's never right. If you are concerned with someone else, you're nosey. If you're concerned with yourself, you are selfish. There really is no balance.
Who can we trust anymore?
Who can we turn to anymore?
Who can we rely on anymore?
The answer is simple, no one but ourselves.
We must me confident, we must be reliable, we must be sure. Pick yourself up by your own bootstraps. Don't rely on others, because in the end, you'll just get screwed over.
Yes, people talk, it's a fact of life. Yes, people have different opinions, it's a fact of life. But in a world where we have so much to say, why does it get said to everyone but the person who needs to hear it?
Stop the drama. Stop the bs. Stop the sneaking. Stop the talking.
JUST DEAL.
