Actions And Reactions.
Sometimes I wonder what types of reactions people display from certain actions that take place. I’ve always been a curious person and with that being said, sometimes I may say things to people to receive a reaction. I’m never looking for a specific reaction more or less but just something that I can register into my brain and correlate with something else that I may think or wonder about that person. Sometimes I even do this to get certain truths out of people if I feel as though they are being dishonest. Some may label this as “mind games”, but I simply think it’s psychology and I’m more than sure I’m not the only one who does it.
Not everything that someone tells you or you hear is the absolute truth or what is really going on, more or less. Sometimes things people say have a deeper meaning. I guess that’s when you have to think outside the box and come to some conclusions as to what these things mean. I call this reading people. If you’re naturally inquisitive, you have done this more times in your life than you can probably count. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it as long as you don’t start to spill these thoughts to that said person and turn out to be incorrect, which in turn may be offensive to whoever it is that you call yourself analyzing. That’s when you dig deeper and ask more questions to see what else you can pick out from that person.
These are some of the things that I think about and sometimes I believe I may think about certain things a little too much. However, I’m always thirsty for knowledge no matter where it comes from. It’s not even something that is done on purpose, I’m just naturally curious about people and life in general. A while back I wrote a piece containing details of my daily routine. You may view it here. At some point in this entry, I described the thoughts that were going through my head as I encountered/passed by certain people. Have you ever looked at someone and wondered some things about them? I know that I do all of the time. My mind is usually racing.
If any of you haven’t noticed, which I am quite sure you may have, I have reverted back to an old theme that I created based off of livejournal’s component theme. I absolutely adore it and I’m going to leave it up for some time. I may even change the colors sometime in the future depending on how I feel, who knows. I added a couple of other bits here and there that you may or not notice and I’m still adding more things.
Edit: Verizon pretty much sucks. There was a phone outage in my area and they were supposed to fix the problem. The next day, my phone was working again. Or least I thought. Come to find out, they had made some repairs and now there are swapped phone lines on my street. I’m receiving calls for someone else and most likely, someone’s receiving calls for my line. When I make a call, people have told me that a whole different number comes up. What’s more is, the line hasn’t been stable at all. It’s been in and out. This all happened on Thursday the 24th of July. I called them on Friday and was told that they wouldn’t have anyone out to make repairs until Tuesday, which is tomorrow, the 29th of July. Now, suppose I hadn’t paid my phone bill. They would NOT have taken 5 days to come to turn it off. My phone would have been cut off ASAP. Needless to say, I’m considering switching services.
