I'm nowhere.

You know what I hate? I hate when people underestimate others, especially when they have no right to do so. I mean, not that anyone ever has the right to underestimate anyone, but my reaction is to immediately prove how they are completely misdirected. It's probably not such a good reaction, but so be it.

I went to see a movie yesterday. It was fantastic.
But that's not the point. Before the movie, a friend brought up the topic of "who would one invite to their wedding?" Wow, that's kind of a loaded question. It kind of implies making a choice of which of your friends have been "good enough," you know? It puts certain things into perspective, and immediately makes you think of all these different criteria used in making such a choice.
I feel as though I have a really screwed up view of friendship.

I feel as though it has been fairly easy to cause conflict. Not as if I've been causing it, but I constantly see the potential for conflict to erupt. Take, for example, new friends in new situations. I don't know if it's me being possessive or choosy or what, but it's been so easy for me to not approve of some new people I've met. I know that I don't have the say to approve or disapprove or whatever, but I pass judgment anyway. That might be a bad thing.

It's crazy to be surrounded by wonderful people, and still not know where you are. In life, in love, in anything else. I feel I have the right to be choosy, but at the same time, I have no choice.
