I've Decided...

OK so I was thinking about things today and I've decided there are 2 kinds of people; the kind that feel left out or like they don't fit in, and the kind that have a click of friends and once they step outside that circle realize they just don't fit in with anyone else. I say this because I keep hearing about people who don't think they fit or are friends with many people of a group I belong to. Then there are some who I thought WERE THE GROUP to fit into and they too feel like they don't fit in with the group. I bet we are all the same as far as this goes. We all need to call each other when we are bored, lonely, or just want someone to hang out with. We all need to call to check on the others and show true concern and compassion for each other. We all need to smile and acknowledge each other even when we don't feel like smiling. We would just be happier this way. You know, "Fake it till you make it!" Fake it until you are happy. Not every circumstance of coarse but you get the idea. I have been pretty happy lately and I wish that those who are not could experience the joy that I do. Friends are wonderful. Sometimes you have to listen when you are busy doing other things. Sometimes you have to call when you just want to rest. Sometimes you have to do favors that you are too tired to do. Wouldn't a good friend do those things for you. Obviously take care of yourself first but we waste a lot of time just being lazy. I have been making weekly goals in the friendship department and have reaped many things to be grateful for. One day I just worked on smiling to those around me and showing sincere interest in their lives, also asking them how they are. Too many times people are faking the happiness and need to get something off their chest. You may be just the right friend to vent to. This was a wonderful day for me because I was able to talk with people I don't usually talk to and they now hopefully feel like they "fit in" with at least one more person in the group. Do your part and you are bound to "fit in" the group. Because after all we are in the same group so there must be something in common!
