Unconventional Beings

Life is indeed not at all a straight line. Sometimes it bends, curves, goes up or down, goes round and round. Murphy�s Law tells us that whatever will go wrong, will go wrong. Thus, expect a perfectly laid path to be more intertwined, intersected, and interconnected.

These are essential, however, for people to learn, to achieve, to remember, to live a normal and complete life. At the end of every loop, curve and hill, numerous learnings are available for consumption. There are many things that will surely surface out along that bumpy road, i.e. people, places, events, pains, sorrows, joys, triumphs, mistakes, etc. that will make you say �Hey life rocks�.

Some friends are not really great a friend when you are at your bumpy ride but nevertheless their existence during this phase will teach you things that would be necessary in coming up with a much better and wiser you � of course in an unconventional way only people of their kind will be able to understand, though effective I must say.

They know absolutely how to distinguish the right from the wrong by showing you the more blatant choices and options that would make decision making much easier and faster.

These so-called friends can actually lead you to your bends and curves, because for some cosmic reason, maybe it is time for you to go through the phase for there are many things that you need to learn and understand, well, the hard way. Because that is the only way for the learnings to make lasting impression inerasable by time.

Their intelligence transcends orthodox intelligence for they know how to shake your foundation, rattle your core, challenge your beliefs and agitate your stability. Therefore, they are not for the weak-hearted, those who have unstable foundation and insecure value system.

The experience with this type may be fleeting, for our bends and curves happen once in awhile. But the impressions they live behind are powerful enough for us to claim that life will be better, much, much better.

In the end, the friendship that they can offer may come in handy for future use, especially when you want to validate your core existence, for check and balance, or when you want to make a decision that can only be made obvious by them.

With them, you know that a storm ends with havoc and trauma but you can only be optimistic that a rainbow will shine and that you are ready to go back to that straight path ahead of you.

You just cannot get enough of these people and for some crazy reason you are looking forward to your next bends and curves with them.


Rafael, such a good one, very true and real!
