Actions and reactions. Okay i've been wanting to talk about this for a long time, and i've also realised that i've been too lazy to use capital letters for my past few posts. But i really don't care, but either way, to make reading this a little easier, i'll use them in all the correct places. If i miss out any, oops, i can't say i haven't tried. Its not like what i'm typing is incomprehensible. Okay, moving on.
I guess its pretty normal for heads to turn whenever a pretty girl walks past. I'm not using this example because i'm in love or anything, its just something typical enough that most people will understand. If you're a girl, you know guys look at you, if you're a guy, you know you look at girls. Or at least i hope so. Its perfectly normal to look, it isn't stated anywhere in the court of law that its wrong to look at someone of the opposite sex, and i don't think any religion doesn't tolerate such behaviour either. I think that, what's important and what should be taken notice of, its not the action of the boy looking at the girl, but rather, what the boy does after looking at the girl. He can either approach the girl to get her number, or he could simply move on with life as though it was nothing but a breath of wind. You stop for a moment to take in and experience the feeling or emotion, then you realise that there are more important things than getting absorbed in something like that, and decide that you have to move on. And you do. So lets say the guy approaches the girl to get her number because well, he's attracted. There's nothing wrong with attraction, it just shows that your hormones are in working order, and hopefully that your sexual orientation is inclined in the right direction too. So he gets the girl's number and starts talking to her, sms-es her day and night, calls her every once in a while, and feels like he's the luckiest boy to ever walk this planet called Earth just because a pretty girl's bothered to talk to him. Fine. No problem with that.
1 week later the boy's walking home and happens to see another pretty girl His head turns as he walks and he almost crashes into a lamp-post. We go through the same motions of watching him decide whether to approach the girl or just get on with life (yea dinner's best eaten hot hot hot). And guess what? Dude decides to get the number! Way to go you think? I think not. Don't forget he already asked for this other girl's number the week before, and when he's asking for this new girl's number, he's probably text-ing the girl from the previous week at the same time. This is the part where you, the reader, starts to think and reflect and ask yourself if what the dude in the story is doing is right. Go on, think! ... ...
I think that, there's a fine line between being attracted and being horny. I don't know why i even used the word horny, but i guess i just can't find a proper word to describe that action/emotion. I feel pretty damn strongly that although its normal to be attracted to different girls at any one time, its always important to exercise self-control. "do unto others what you want done unto you". Along the way, whether or not you realise it, there are people that you're gonna hurt for sure. Even if these are people you don't know, and indirectly a lot of people become involved. If you've read "Five People You Meet In Heaven", you'll know how small little things, although seemingly minor and insignificant, can cause changes of revolutionary proportions in other people's lives. Its scary yes, definitely. But most of the time, we don't realise it. Maybe we couldn't care less, or maybe we just didn't know it would turn out that way. I'd definitely be able to illustrate what i'm trying to say more eloquently but i'm not going to, because i don't wanna offend anyone if they find out i'm actually talking about them. But i have to say this, because enemies of your best friends can be your good friends too, and whether you like it or not, it comes round to bite you sooner or later so you can't just sit and do nothing about it. One step at a time, sometimes realisation hurts the most, and often, it works best. Like i always said, efficiency's always better than deficiency.
