Today I will rant about two things.

First, boy do people who claim to be "special" get on my nerves. As in "I'm different from everybody else" and "you wouldn't understand because I'm me, and I'm special whereas everybody else is normal/ordinary".
Shut up. It just proves how desperate you are. Everybody is fucking special. Ever heard the saying : you're unique, just like everyone else? So you're not like everybody else; but everybody else is different from everybody else. It's not you versus the the rest, it's each and everyone of us versus each and everyone of us. Geez, get real.

Second, I'm growing increasingly tired of people who blame Life for everything. I used to believe in destiny - not as in don't do anything, your destiny will take care of it but as in every thing you do and every decision you make you do and make because it's your destiny. But I remember a round table we had a few years ago, in English class. Every week, a group of 4 or 5 individuals were chosen for the round table and they were supposed to analyse a short story we were reading that week. That week, I can't remember what we were talking about, but eventually they started talking about destiny. Some of them believed in it and this guy didn't and claimed everything was a result of conscious decisions. One of them started saying: "Well, if you're crossing the street and this car runs you over, where's your conscious decision?"

And the answer was: "It wasn't your decision, but it certainly was the driver's not to stop at the stop sign. What happens to you that you haven't asked for is the result of somebody else's conscious decision."

And he had a very good point, there.
Thing don't happen to you. Life isn't playing with you; people are. It sort of agrees with what I thought at the time : we all make conscious decisions, whether or not they're part of a greater scheme. And for god's sake, if your own decisions led you where you are, stop blaming it on Life in order to ease your mind. And if you didn't and you just get run over by a car, just fucking accept that there is no reason why, because sometimes there isn't.

But of course you shouldn't neglect the fact that what you see as a very sad turn of events might be the result of someone else's conscious decision, and if it has to do with you, then your conscious decisions just might've played a role in this.
