Probably Only Ten Percent

So yeah this post has been stored in my head for almost a year now and I haven't had time to write this until now.

It's about when you have a lot of acquaintances and you noticed that only a very little (ten to fifteen percent) of them really care about you, notice you or just curious about you. These few people, you know, they are the ones who give effort---just a very small amount of effort to know you, to discover how you react to things, how you handle things, what would frustrate or hurt you, what would make you laugh or what, in that 'near friendship' stage, would be the familiar things you can have and share. They may not be there or you may not be together all the time but you know they care and they just don't show it regularly. They give time to know you a bit more every time you are together or in one place.

So what are the other 80 or 85 percent doing considering that you are known to them and they to you? Can't rally say, but I sometimes think that most of these people don't give a damn about you, what happens to you, what you think (ok so how can they care about what you think when they don't give even a little time to know you?), how you doin', etc., etc...

It's inevitable, they are just there in your life, loitering but not really mattering? Hm we might want to think about that again. Because at some point we can't really tell if a person should be out of our lives, because at some point, they matter...and we can't just toss them out of your life even if they don't matter to you or you to them.

Half of that larger part, maybe half or dots? (up to ye. =)) are people who don't know you but say a lot of things about you, either gossip or truth, negative or positive, they are very busy speaking about you but they barely know you or vice versa.

So kudos to the ten percent...and the rest, just hang in there. It's too early to say and decide in this life. =)
