Contemplative Mood

Life is definitely less dramatic when you are an introvert.

There aren't dramatic showdowns when friendships are torn apart, less dramatic pair-ups, and even lesser dramatic situations when you try to confide to a friend.

I guess drama-rama people always know how to really interact with other people. They know how to manoveur pass the stage of meer His and How Are Yous. And into a stage where the relationship has become deeper. Then words of love, hate, tease, laughter and humour will automatically spill out of their lips, and there wouldn't be awkward silences between they and their friends. That - will cause all the drama.

And hey, I don't mean the drama you see on Channel 8. Not the swordplays and bombastic fights. I mean real-life drama. Like how situations will form between you and another person. Fights, squabbles, hugs, tears, laughter, and all the stuff like that. Normal feelings that normal out-of-the-telly people would feel.

Ever watched Everwood? The OC? Gilmore Girls? If so, then you would get what I'm trying to say.

Like when you sit down with someone and talk things out over a dark, night sky. There is a stillness in the air, that makes the moment absolutely precious. It's not anyone who is willing to spare their time to lay still and enjoy it with you. So there's that bond - that bond of gratitude. Content that, out of the 1001 things you could've done that night, both of you had chosen to spend it together. Instead of another 1000 things.


How amazing are the emotions of humankind. =D
