Man Made Island.
i once thought that because of our insensitivity, that we create islands amongst us. that through our intense attachments in cliques that no one else can afford to be near us, hence, isolation occurs. i once thought that the only way to abolish islands were to make sure everyone was accepted.
I was wrong.
People make themselves islands. they strive to live out of the box, and although commendable, they risk miscommunication and later, discommunication. They wish so badly to have life their own way that when others approach, there is no room left for them. Man made islands.
Try as you may, islands will continue its existence as long as there are different personalities, and different expectations of individuals. Now i know i should not try to abolish them, rather "visit" them when the tide is low, and they need communication with the rest of the world.

hmmm…very deep there, genevieve!
well…at some point of our lifes we all ‘push ppl away’, have cliques that we r comfy with..stick to them…even to the extent that u r oblivious/cant care much about others around us…who aint part of ‘our mini-island’.
is it rite or wrong? well…who am i to judge?
but sometimes if u stick out like a sore thumb, when u r made to seem to be wrong, yet after analyzing every aspect…u know that u r right-on…well, do u conform for the sake of acceptance (and betray ur own principles) or stand up for wat u believe & end up as a loner (island) knowing that you r a true winner, for daring to be different - though u might have to suffer a lot…
