So I sat right in front of this guy whose clique sat on the other side of the bus. He sat alone and kept quiet throughout the bus ride while his friend all talked loudly. I saw his reflection from the window itself and he seem to look so broken as he stared outside. His so called "friends" asked if he was alright and he seem so forced to smile and replied he was just "tired". But the moment he turned away and looked outside, his smile slowly fades into nothingness Then they reached their stop and alighted. I looked as he exited the bus last and how his "friends" walked off first without him and just continue chattering among themselves. He seem so out of place when they walked off together.
This reminded me of myself in the past. Like how I felt I was out of place with every different bunch of people that I hang out with. And I thought to myself, just how much this society have shape us into each of our character. Some of us turned heartless because of the sufferings we went through. However some of us remain kind because you never want anyone feel the same way as you. Every single person that appeared in your life either serve as a lesson or is a blessing to you. But no matter which group they belong to, their words and action actually changes you in some way or another. Whether you swear a lot or you don't ; Whether you become a extrovert or a introvert ; Whether you become your true self or it was all just a fake act.
Maybe whatever I said here, you may not agree. But this is just my thinking, my perspective, a thought.
