2 parts melancholy, 1 part cloudy day and 3 parts PMS: consume gently and wait for weird thoughts to enter.

If talking to someone will build up common grounds, hence bring about affection, how do you explain those who you just hold on to with just threads of love?
Let’s say your mom get sick at the smell of your favorite shampoo. There’s no medium ground. You just don’t wash your hair before you go see her. You tolerate greasy hair with just threads of love.
What if you have autistic kid? He’s in his own world. There’s no common interest – unless you really like math or something. But you’ll love him right? Yes, the thread of love.
It’s not perfect. It’s not going to cover all grounds, but, I believe one can rule the world with just threads of love. Maybe I’m wrong.

Have you ever wonder about the concept of being “open minded”?
Let’s say you believe in racial equality. All human being should be treated equally no matter what race he or she is.
You are a liberal open-minded person, right?
What if you call others who opposed your ideology - those who believe in racial segregations and all that – a narrow-minded bigot because they have different opinion.
Do you still consider yourself open-minded?

Lastly, you and I, we don't have to like or believe in the same thing to be friends. Not all my friends are drama queens like myself. Some of them are very grounded and quite sane. Sometimes I don't understand them. How could they be so emotionless? Don't they feel anything? Take that into account, do I like them less? NO.
If that is their personality, I'll deal.
Afterall, look at Jerusalem, that holy place everybody is fighting over about. I don't mean to be disrespectful but the Jews believe in this holy place, the Muslims worship this holy place, the Christians, don't even get me start, people go over there to carry some rented old wooden cross around the city instead of going to the Bahamas drinking Margaritas, for Christ's sake. [No pun intended, of course. It just came out that way.]
Honestly, has there ever been a period of over a decade that there were no war sprang off from that place? I don't know, I'm not religious study major. Maybe you can tell me. And people use their lifetime saving and kid's college fund to get there? It just doesn't make sense to me.
And It was all because people want or like the same thing? I just don't know. I guess my point - which probably has nothing to do with the above rant - is that what works for you, may not work the same way for me. I guess.

Oh, and one more thing while I'm on this rant kick. If you ask me to "be myself" around you, you better make damn sure you can take "it". I don't do thing in moderation. It's all or none. I'm just not normal that way. I am a unique.
Just
a warning saying, yo!
Thanks for tuning in, whoever you are. May threads of love be with you.
