when i was little, i have imaginary friend that i named after the characters of "candy candy" comics, such as anthony and tommy. i used to spend few hours talking to them (or in adult's eyes, i was talking to wall). and i used to think that i'm the role-leader of this world and other people was just the decorations. that's because i skipped playgroup and go straight to kindergarten. i haven't got the chance to meet anyone else outside my family and so i didn't know that there was another life other than mine. the time when i realized that people had lives before met me is when i got a boyfriend. because of the long chit-chatting on the phone every night, i'd studied his life, his childhood, and his life before we met. and so it was hitted me in the head ; so i'm not the lead actor of this world anymore.
i used to underestimated other people, and after i realized that they are human like me, i started to put much respect for them. i started to learn how to valuing them. when i think "look how ugly that person are" i remove that thoughts with "but he's still a human, he's breathing and needs to eat, and he's just as powerless as i am".
i know i'm not perfect, and there was time when i even didn't even consider a person as a human. (that's when i was really pissed off by him/her) but i'll try to be a better person tomorrow than i was yesterday. it's not like i'm a propher or saints, but i want other people to respect me. so i should do the same as a return, didn't i?
