first days.

hello.
i think sometimes i get lost in my world of preconceived notions and begin to behave, around people, in ways i wouldn't otherwise. i tell myself that i'm not judgemental, someone makes one wrong move, there is something inside that subtly breaks, and suddenly i'm doomed to an uncomfortable conversation filled with small talk and bad humor - or no talking at all. i understand that a mans reputation may not always precede him, that first impressions are overrated and that words whispered in bathrooms and corridors may only be words - unfortunately harsh ones at that. so why do i succumb to this biased version of myself? believing that your views are always hidden away safely inside of you would be making a mistake, especially since your attitude shapes your behavior...immediately or eventually. i wish i could be more comfortable with certain habits, and more care free around those who i can't relate to. i wish i could rid myself of all inhibitions and learn to embrace the different kinds of people who surround me today, or at least embrace whats good in each of them, for there is always good.
