Acceptance

Look at me go! Two days in a row! Okay, in reality I wrote this yesterday but then posted it today with the nifty (just realized what an awful word "nifty" is, and yet I still used it) future post option that exists. So what to ramble about today, you may ask, and my answer may be the Use and Effects of Realpolitik in United States History (complete lie, not even remotely touching that subject with a 50 foot pole... that is if a subject was a tangible item that could in theory be touched by poles ... and pole being an actual pole and not a slang pole...). In reality I am actually going to continue to ramble, since that is what I do best, and hope to come to an astonishing conclusion that will make everyone reading think I am a naturally gifted boy genius of sorts.... that is if that sentence did not already completely prove otherwise. I will actually go into an idea that was semi-touched (how do you semi-touch something?) upon in my last post about nothingness. That was the idea of acceptance in a society that is so incredibly diverse using subjective qualifiers to prove something to others (see that circle I just went in?). But it is a rather complex notion to attempt to describe with solely objective statements. Society is based on ties more than logical, but rather emotional. Thus, anything that is related to society, kind of needs to be taken with a grain of salt (what a weird expression). No one can please everyone, nor should they. People will have their differences and that should be celebrated (without parades). I have given up on impressing people, perhaps this is where my ideas are all stemming from (hatred, just kidding), but it seems like a battle that can never be won. The microcosm known as American high schools (I have never been elsewhere in a high school so I do not want to assume all high schools are like this although I heard some rumors through the grapevine) has taught me that regardless of everything, different people are going to ignore you, love you, hate you, talk shit about you, compliment you, include you, ostracize you, smile with you or laugh at you... and really it is all just inevitable (granted, if you are being a douche, it could be avoided if you just stop being a douche). Some people will judge you within the first 5 seconds of meeting you, others will do it superficially, and others will just want to know if you are as obsessed with football as you are. The criteria people choose to accept or deny someone is their own personal criteria, and whether you fit or not is just a hit or miss, it has nothing to do with you not being a good person, or you being a douche
(again though, sometimes it is about you being a douche). If you are being yourself, than it does not matter at all really. I know this sounds all teen-pop-baby-you're-a-firework kind of shit, but it is true. I have been discouraged plenty of times because you get those times of complete loneliness (well, at least I do, I guess not everyone technically has to have felt this before), but after it ends you have this sense of, why the eff was I upset to begin with? I'm rocking it my way, and some people are not going to like it, just like some people are just going to think this post is dumb, and to that I say, you may be right, but I still posted it.
