I Wish.

Author's Note: This piece is basically me venting how I feel about people. In all honesty, people bother me in the way that they treat people because of the differences they might have.

Have you ever possibly wished that  things could be back to the way they used to be when you were younger? When no one cared what you looked like because we were all accepting of one another. When everyone talked to each other because we were taught to be nice to everyone. When everyone included everyone because differences didn't matter. I feel like I live in a world where judging is thought to be okay. Oh wait...I do. Nobody is accepting of one another any more because we all changed in many different ways and some people can't look through all of that to see what is hidden underneath.

People don't realize how frequently their so called "friends," talk badly behind their backs. This usually occurs because of problems within the friendship or because the two friends were changing and the other friend didn't like their changes. Especially being mad about stupid little things. If someone talks behind your back, you obviously never find out from them; always another friend. Then there becomes problems with how the friends act around each other and depending on the people, it can get better or worse. 

It seems, as you move through your teenage years, you begin to notice the changing in the ways that people act around other people. You lose friends, you make friends, you learn who is there for you when you mess up and who isn't. People don't stay friends because they can't accept differences and they don't want to see the changed person that you have become. Some people, once they reach a certain age, don't care about particular people anymore because they figure that those people don't care about them anymore because they both have changed. 

Throughout writing this whole essay and thinking about what to write, the main thing that came to mind was judging people. That is how you are classed in this society because people make judgments. Sometimes, the way you look at someone and how you picture who they are, is the total opposite. Many people in this world are as happy as clams by day but go home and cry at night because of things that go on that people don't notice. 

People are not willing to look underneath the layer of skin that is on someone to see how they really are on the inside. They jump on every chance they get to judge someone on their changes. Everyone is different and will change in their own ways to become their own person. Before you are quick to make assumptions about someone, give them a second look and set the differences you may have beside.
