been a while...

So , it's been a while since my last post, and well, i've been busy!! School started and i LOVE it, like i thought i would. It's a lot of work, but nothing i am stranger to, or scared of. I have been doing a lot of work both with the school, and for the bar, and i am learning new things every day. One thing i have been doing a lot of lately is people watching...more than i used to. I have begun to fully realize and fully embrace my gift for reading and profiling people with the speed and accuracy that i am able to...and the one thing that i am just completely shocked with is just how many people not only THINK they are better than other people, but how vocally they proclaim it. It blows my mind. Seriously.


There are some people whom i come into contact with on a daily, weekly or monthly basis that project such an air of arrogance it takes everything in me to keep my disgust from leaking out of every last pore in my body. People who think they can do no wrong, make no mistakes, and can never err. If they are told they are wrong or imperfect, they will fight every step of the way to make sure they are perceived as perfect. In some ways this is a ridiculous display of narcissism and ignorance, but on the deeper level, it's an outstanding vocal display of complete insecurity.


What is it that makes someone have the amount of arrogance that they have? Is it their parental upbringing? their childhood? i honestly would love to know. I have a firm belief that complete arrogance and disrespect for others and insecurity go hand in hand, and i believe it's deeply rooted in one's childhood or family life.

Now i know my opinioins on things such as religion can seem to be very narrow minded at times, but i never forget or disrespect the fact that people have their own opinions and views on things, and that means that my views or opinions are not specifically right, or better than anyone else's. But WHY can't other people see that with other things in life? Why do some things always have to be a competition or a contest to some people? That's what i would like to know.

The best part of watching someone like this is that they eventually fade away. Eventually, once everyone notices the ego, and everyone notices how cocky this person is, they tune them out and once the attention is gone the person crawls back into the little insecure hole they came out of and sulks to themselves.

Moral of the story? Ignore egotistical assholes.
