Movie Stubs

     I used to think that all of us fit into a small pool regarding who we are and that we simply like different things, but I've realized that I'm wrong. There's actually people who are able to think in such intricate ways that can only be understood by those other people who see the world in the same eyes. I'm glad to say that I've had the pleasure of meeting people like this. Those who don't view situations or surroundings in the typical, structed perspective that most of the world does, but a "different" manner.

     These few people who I've come to known are by far the most interesting people I've ever met. They appreciate the little things in life which seem to be very insignificant to the majority of people, and find beauty in mundane things. They can also sense those who are following the popular beliefs of the world and see that they have a limited capacity to understand those who are unlike them. They not only challenge the way that others think, but the way that I think and I love it. Because not everything is black and white. There are things going on that can be interpreted in a million different ways, and life isn't meant to be lived the same way as everyone else; except a lot of the times people don't get that. For example, they don't understand why I like to watch people, or why my collection of tickets/movie stubs is a meaningful accomplishment. They see things for what they are and that's it. And a movie ticket to them is a piece of trash, when it's actually a memory. 

     You know, some just have that sixth sense and are more in tune with their surroundings. They can see through the plastic masks we all put on, and have that ability to deeply take in a person instead of knowing the shallow facts that anyone can get from social media. To them a person isn't just the way they look or talk, because anyone can look or act the same. It really comes down to what you appreciate or is passionate about, because that's unique to you. That's what makes your entire being. Not the hipster flower crowns or Nike free runs that everyone has. Yeah you can attribute those things to yourself because that's what you like, but that doesn't set you apart from the entire teenage population. And that's my entire point of this post: that so many of us are the same. We dress the same, talk the same, and now think the same... but not everyone. Some can actually view the world for what it could be, not what it actually is.
