They used to have dreams too.

Years ago when I used to work in pubs during the day times, I always used to wonder what the people in there were thinking.

It could be a nice sunny day outside. What were these people doing in a dark, dinghy pub drinking alcohol and wasting away their day-wasting away their LIVES in here??

I would get into a lot of trouble from my manager when I would try to tell them that they should do something productive, something constructive, just...SOMETHING. "They are our customers!" My manager would yell. "They pay your wages! Stop trying to save their lives!"

I never understood what these people were thinking. I know people can do whatever they like with their lives, but why this?? Why just choose to be completely worthless??

I USED to think this. But it's only now that I am beginning to understand.

I think sometimes people just give up. They give up with trying. There could be times where no matter what you do, things just don't seem to work out. You see everyone else around you living their lives, seemingly happy. This is fine for them! It's good that they are happy. But in their happiness, are they oblivious or do they become oblivious to you??

So what about yourself?? What if you just feel like your life isn't going anywhere and not matter what you try to do, things just seem to go wrong. Surely there is only SO MUCH that a person can do and only SO MANY times that a person can keep trying? Why always try and be positive when it always ends up in disappointment??

I understand why they do this.
