All the people who care about me are already far away!
At every stage of life, there are the flurries of activities that cause us to be busy. In preschool, I was busy kicking the little boy who liked me. In high school, I was busy trying to get into college. In college, I’m busy pretending to be a grown-up. I imagine those out of college continue to find their lives heavily active–cocktail parties, meetings, toddlers, toilets, &c. The point is, everyone is busy. (Just like Everyone Poops.) My plea is for you to step up, take your head out of your ass, and cultivate your relationships. That’s right, you busy bees, I’m calling your bluff.
I have finals. I’ve got this party to go to. I need to sleep. Bullshit. Don’t ignore your friends, families, and the people you walk by on the street everyday. Pick up the phone. Write a letter. Be an actual friend, not a twice-a-year mouth to feed. Oh, and update your blog. VARSHA.
