Those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind
This is the truest statement you ever get to read in your life. A lot of people are out there who just sweat about “what will everyone say” about things that concern them. If you need to pull along, just do it without listening to every bothering bumbler. I mean, why should you mess up your life for people who don’t care two cents about you? I really think it’s high time we must give up adopting this kind of attitude. There are a lot of people who even commit suicide because they feel they can’t live up to the expectations of the society. And if they don’t do that, they sink in the deep chasm of depression from where return is nigh on impossible.
Sometimes I just want to run on the streets like crazy and yell, “Your life is your own! Do not destroy it for some boring old pest who doesn’t care tuppence about you!” Sometimes, it’s just difficult to tell people that they need to give up living for others and that they must live their own life. Some simply laugh and walk away; though in the depth of their heart they know you’re true. Some even take your words to heart and follow you. It’s difficult to decide a course pattern people are likely to adopt; they’re so unpredictable. So we must do our part. The best community service we can do is to run around, catch anyone who is crying and tell them that they need to stop living it out for others. They need to live for themselves. If someone really cares about them, he won’t mind. If he is just another sham fiend, he will mind and walk away. Let him, for we’ll know that he doesn’t matter a bit…

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. <br /> - Maya Angelou <br /> When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn’t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out<br /> The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay<br /> If love produced a blossom/I’d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I’d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven<br /> And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel
