I really like caf hotdogs. I like how they taste and bring my spirits high. I like them even though they look disgusting and have an unnatural grey tent to them. I can look past their shocking grey features because of the taste that comes with them. There is too much good that outweighs the grey tent that runs certain people off.
Just like I can look past the grey tint of my dog, I can also look past certain traits in friends and family because I love them. I really think that love is looking past all of flaws of a person and being there for them despite their failures. Love is definitely sticking by someone no matter what. But you know what else I think love can be? I think love can be knowing who needs your love, and who will be more loved if you are gone.
Let me explain….some personalities just DO NOT MIX! Some people do things that drive others crazy and they will never find that common ground. I think there's something spiritual about separating personalities that are at odds. I mean, we can't avoid everyone, and we should definitely be kind to all. But sometimes a close relationship is only going to bring harm to both parties. Kind of like if you put a chicken and a fox together in a pen. Nothing good can come of it.
At first the fox decides that he will try hard to befriend the chicken. The chicken does have nice feathers and an alluring pointy beak! The fox has really good intentions that he plans to keep up. But as the fox brings the chicken into a warm embrace he begins to smell the tasty scent that entices him to take a bite. He decides that he will try harder to love the chicken, even if it screams to be eaten. But then the chicken starts bawking so loud that the fox jumps high in the air. The fox asks the chicken to stop, but chicken thinks is beautiful and continues in a loud BAAAWK. The fox decides that the chicken is better off eaten for everyone's sake now that he's heard this unbearable noise. But the chicken does not understand because the chicken always gets along with all the other chickens out there. The bawking is quite appealing to her friends back home. Why is this fox not feeling the same? And maybe the chicken doesn't like the way the fox smells and talks. The fox has bleeding ears from the chicken's boisterous bawk but the chicken is sick and tired of the way the fox keeps licking his fingers and sniffing the chicken! Not to mention fox has really bad breath! Why is fox judging chicken when chicken is clearly the nicer of the two parties?Then the chicken decides that the fox is too judgmental and therefore judges the fox. The fox hears the chicken talking about him and it makes him so angry that he starts to sharpen his teeth for a big feathery bite. Chicken was NOT the nicer of two parties! Clearly fox was in the right! Fox didn't want to see chicken's side, but chicken was not willing to see foxes side, either! Poor fox was made to eat chickens and annoyed of the bawking and poor chicken had to be around someone who smells bad and wants to eat her!!! You see…both the chicken and the fox are good folk…they just don't see eye to eye. They weren't made to be pen partners. They only brought the worst out in each other.
Just as the fox isn't made to have cuddle time with a chicken…..we may not be made to have a close friendship with certain people. And that's completely alright! Stick to the ones that you can make the most difference with. Stick to the ones that are not forced and do not bring harm to all involved! I'm not saying to give up when times are rough in relationships, because that is definitely not what I would say!!!! Some relationships are worth the fight, but others are like fitting a square into a circle. Some relationships bring out the best in you and others bring out the worst. So choose wisely who you let in close, but be kind to all!!!! Just don't force something that is a lose lose for everybody. Cause no matter who you are….there is someone out there who is bound to clash with you. Hard to believe, I know ;)
