New situations...old philosophies

Be warned that as I type this post I really have know idea what to write about but I just feel the need to write. Writing in my blog is very theraputic for me. I know that lots of people don't read it and the people that used to probably don't check it regulary anymore because of my long hiatus but I don't care.

I was moving my blog over to the new blogger beta today and in the process started looking at some of my old posts. I found this one http://mlditty.blogspot.com/2005/06/pain-of-friendship.html that has some meaning in my life right now. And I have a few people that need to read this old post.

After reading that and thinking over my life as of late I realize that it is hard being friends with people (worth it but hard nonetheless). It is hard because those people in your life that you let get close to you can hurt you the most and not even in the most obvious ways. I normally don't get caught up in the drama in my life (Frankly because I do not have very much) I always seem to get caught up in the drama of everyone else's life. Like that previous post said watching people can be the most difficult sometimes. The sad thing is that all I can do is watch and then allow them to make their own decisions.

It is like watching a cheap Daytime Soap Opera! It makes me sick to see this in my friends lives and in turn, through association, my life.
