I'm a Hustler

"Here's the jewel: love your enemies and hate your friends.. your friends always change, your enemies stay the same"
--50 Cent, I'm a Hustler

50 Cent isn't exactly the best person to take advice from. His lyrics aren't exactly deep either. But in his early songs and albums, he was one of the best. This quote is, I guess you could say, an exaggeration of the truth.
Love your enemies. True. You should love your enemies.. there's some Christian reason I'm sure, but the Buddhist reason is that they take away your bad karma every time they insult you or attack you. And, they're good practice for dealing with people. Also, if you treat them with love, they may turn into friends.
Hate your friends. Why would you hate your friends? In reality, my view is that you should make the most of friendship while you can, but not expect it to last forever. Sadly, friendships always change. Nothing is permanent. Cause in the end, what's it all worth? The memories... the photographs... they just bring pain when the friendship is over. Maybe I should consider myself lucky not to have a lot of good friends right now. But instead, I'm just self-pitying...
Your friends always change. Spot on.
Your enemies stay the same. Not exactly. I've had a lot of enemies that I've either been able to turn into friends, or we've both been away from each other long enough to forgive & forget. Or maybe I just haven't had any real enemies...

Art center went ok... our city is burning yet again, and closer this time... Walnut is boring as ever...
 
2-liters of Brisk iced green tea do a damn good job keeping you awake.. I slept like an hour and a half this morning (4:30--6) and I'm still wide awake.
Anyway.. I'm out guys... one love

Maybe if you took girls more seriously, then more of them would consider loving you.

And what is with meeting people online these days? I guess it's kind of fun, even if it never amounts to much.
