People, Stories and the Ones Worth Keeping

Have you ever sat down and bothered to take a look around you? I`m sure you have, so let me change that question: have you ever sat down and bother to actually notice the way people act around you? See the looks on their faces? The differences in the tone of there voices when they talk about something of interest compared to something they are not so interested in? I try to take notice of these things. I find that you`ll learn way more about a person through just watching how they act, or the manner in which they speak. In no way am I trying to be rude or anything in saying this but I find it that we (people) are just like any story you would see in the theaters or read in books, with some much harder to fully understand then others. In some cases people are easy reads, like take for example people who just do things for the sake of being cool, tell me that is not like some corny action flick you haven`t seen a million times over. Then in other cases people are much harder to read, in most cases these people are either out of touch with society and/or are very guarded, yet they have that mystique about them which make you believe that there is something interesting about these people . Now haven`t we all seen the movies or read the stories of the person no one really knew getting big and famous after years? I guess what I`m trying to get at here is that in our own way we are playing out are own story in life. A story which may not be great or outstanding but a story that until we finally leave this earth will always have the potential to be great, even if only taken in bits and pieces. And just like the only people who can truly appreciate a story are those people who care about all the plots even the are dull and boring ones, just like in life the only people worth keeping are the people who will be there even for the dull and boring moments. Now watch the people around you? Do they listen to you? Do they seen the least bit interested in what you do or what you have to say? Now ask your self , will they actually be there for me when I need them? Do they care enough about the way your life story is going? If not then well it`s your life and you decide what to do.
