Lost Cause

The problem with people who mean what they say, is they think everyone is the same. We treasure different things, and sometimes I get hurt because what’s precious to me might mean little to you. I won’t try to change anything about you, because being different is what make things so interesting. Also because, I don’t think you can ever change someone for your own benefit.

But I will, learn to change my attitude, to soften myself in order to accept how things are. My mum always taught me 只要对自己要求,做好本份就好了。 记得,严己宽人。Strict towards yourself, but forgiving towards others. I use to cry and be all dramatic about the promises people break. But right now, I listen to words you say and half believe them. It’s not that I don’t trust you, I just hold on to this thought that if you keep your promises then great, if you don’t then I know you tried. If you don’t and you didn’t even try, well, that’s too bad (‘:

I expect everything from myself and nothing from you. In the end I am able to tell you ‘it’s okay’ in the calmest tone. You can go do all the wrong things, as long as I remain true to myself.

Because really, I never trust the things you say at night.
