People are so shallow and conditional.. Also, my birthday today.

Today I have turned 23, feel like the years are just stacking faster and faster. Not much has changed in terms of my life status. Still in school, I have a dead end job, I rarely see my friends(the handful I have) and my family is in constant drama I can't avoid.

 

I am not depressed today, just really tired. My classes are becoming an annoyance, not that anything is difficult, I just don't have high motivation at this juncture. My first semester ends april 8th... It is divided into two modules. I already finished the first module and got a 4.0. This module is almost done and I'm on my way to getting an A again. But the exams in january are what I care about the most.

 

I have had it with people lately. I have been questioning my status with long time friends. People I have recently met, people I have been with for almost 2 years, they are going to leave you over one bad little thing they didn't want being said. I was friends with this musician who lives in southern California. He's also a highly intelligent scientist and a hard worker who is making progress toward his goals. He is poor but a persistent man. He decided to cut ties with me over something petty such as referring someone else's work for a different circumstance. There's more to it, but overall he was being a baby and removes my comments from his youtube channel.

 

Why can't you find honest people anymore? I know unconditional companionship/love exists. But it is like 1 in a trillionth chance.

People will just naturally overreact and maybe make decisions that hurt you, whether intentionally or unintentionally. That's just how some people are.

 

My advice is just to try to look at the good in people whenever you can. Focus on what you admire from them, but also be kind and considerate if you want to talk about a flaw of theirs that bothers you.

 

Anyways, happy birthday dude.

Good people are not as rare as you say, but of course having one close-by is usually something else than an acquaintance over the internet, possibly from another country even.

There's also gradations of virtue, and people's virtue can change based on the circumstances. Phoniness is like a well you dig deeper. You have to decide at which point you stop digging and accept what you know so far. Because one can overdose on insight when acceptance of the insight gained lacks behind. (Acceptance means not trying to change it, and thus instead shifting your priorities inwards.)
