I'm who I'm...
Nowadays, people tend to only take things at face value. Like how most would only want to be associated with the coolest people in school, the prettiest or richest girl around or the guy who drives a nice car...
How about the plain Jane who's actually very kind... but maybe not as extrovert? Probably if you find time to get to know her better, she's actually a wonderful person with lots to share? Or the quiet guy who seldom talks but is actually a great gentleman?
Whatever happened to liking things for its simplicity? Isn't inner beauty the purest form of beauty? A beauty which will never be tarnished or fade with time....
Occasionally, we meet great people whom you really really like... and enjoy spending time with... but then as time goes by, you slowly realise that maybe they ain't that great afterall? Why? Simply because sometimes, they appear so superficial that you feel that it probably isn't worth investing time and effort in them.
Sure, I would love to marry some Brad Pitt lookalike... but I know I ain't any Angelina Jolie... But really, love to me is more than just seeing things from the surface... it goes beyond it... where you accept the good & the bad... Like how the person has BO but you still love the person all the same... Like how he starts balding and looking ridiculous but your love still doesn't change a single bit even though there's a Colin Farrell lookalike who's hot at your heels... Like how if one day she is diagnosed with cancer & has to undergo chemo & starts dropping hair... you would encourage her by shaving ur hair with her...
It's really easy to be there through the good times... but how many can still stick around when you're at your lowest? Fair-weather friends are aplenty... but the ones who see you through your good times and bad...? I dare say you'll be lucky like hell if you have as much as a handful.
So my friends, please don't always take things at face value... sometimes, it's wise to close your eyes & listen to your heart... 'cause your heart tells you the best & truest opinions.
Charlotte: Do you know how lucky you're to have me? Do you have any idea how people look at us when we're together?
Harry: Sure I do... I just didn't know you're one of them...
