Getting to know all about you

Hilarious! It’s so funny listening to get to know you conversations. People’s same taught responses passed down through the years of brainwashed bliss. It’s crazy, certifiable actually. Straight jackets should be required, yet somehow these are the people that run this whole planet. It’s pretty fucking lame, I wish I could step inside their brains and poke around for a bit. Just long enough to find their little ‘get it’ switch and flip it.
So few of them get it. We are who we are, we can’t be anyone else. I know exactly what to tell you, but I choose to tell you what I’m thinking. I am going to love you for who you are because I have no use for anything else. I would like for you to do the same.
You can’t be that person who flips things to negative. If someone wants to attack you they will do it sooner or later. Whether it is psychological, physical and/or sexual is really the only mystery. They come in two forms and variations of both; the ones who are completely unaware of their actions and trapped in their immediate responses and/or mental illness and the ones who are fully aware of the impacts of their behavior.
The unaware have a tendency to react quickly, I don’t even like to start with these people. The plotters and planners take their time, and boy are they fun to play with – when they will actually play. I usually scare both types, the first immediately and the second after a few conversations. I’m a firm believer in stepping forward. A closed mind and lies make that an impossibility.
The good thing is that most often, these types of people get out of my face. I appreciate it for what it is. A gift. Unfortunately, it is also a huge curse. I relate to people in their sixties. I have always identified with adults. Now as an adult I am starting to notice the change in the atmosphere, balances in my life have shifted and I can relate to more people my age.
People completely stuck in patterns don’t usually understand me. They tend to be primarily straight, imagine that. I know I’m completely shocked that a straight person is incapable of stepping outside their little box to see the world for what it is. The differences are what make us beautiful. We should embrace the similarities and differences in others, not judge and ridicule. In a perfect world we would all have what we want. I do realize that this is not the case, but I do my part to ensure that it is around me. I like living in neutral territory. I didn’t even know it existed until I was 18.
