younger is better

we are supposed to "be as little children" because they are so innocent and carefree. so why is it so weird that i like to hang out with the youth...that's what i'm supposed to be doing. they help me be carefree and myself and not uptight and old. if we want to be healthy and strong spirited, we need to look up to the youth. sure, we need to be examples, but we can still have fun doing it.

tea and sympathy

with lupus it gets frustrating when other people don't understand the pain that comes along with it. sure i can try to describe it, but until someone has experienced the constant pains that occur, they cannot fully understand. it's more wearisome when they goad you about not doing things because of it. i wouldn't wish it upon them to have to feel it, but if only they could know how it is, it would make it a little easier to live with. it's hard enough to not be able to do things sometimes without others making you feel worse about it. i'm just saying, try to be sympathetic to others ailments. i've definitely learned not to judge those who may have to park in the handicapped lot, yet seem to young or well to be there. sure, there are those that shouldn't, but we never know. not that I'm one of those, but we just never know what's going on in someone's body. ok, just had to let all that out.
