It’s a must nowadays. It seems these last few months of my life have been one big game of chess. Every move I make has been affecting someone else in some way. Now I do realize that life has always been like this, but it seems I’ve been more aware of it now more than ever. It seems as if I’m actually moving these pieces purposely to get what I want.
Sounds terrible, huh? Let me reword.
It’s not exactly about getting what I want or having something play out in my favor (or else a lot of shit would be different) but it’s about what I know will happen with time instead of right now. I’m not living so much for right now, as much as I am for the future. I make my moves based on what I feel will happen in due time. Stupid? Nah, I say wise. Because what I know I want in the future, I really can do without right now.
Think about it…
Many things have popped up between friends and handling that has proven to be a problem for me as well as with others. I’m taking the backseat with information I have and letting everyone’s life play out the way it will. But it’s hard. It’s hard to know something that will ultimately break a friends heart. It’s even harder to feel a certain way about someone but have to keep it inside. Sometimes things are better left unsaid, but those unspoken words can destroy you.
Right?
You can’t exactly open your mouth at every given point. Well you can, but that’s not very tactful. Nor is it smart. Never let another know how you’re playing the game. Keep your next move quiet or else the right people will take it the wrong way and ultimately you’ll end up losing way more than you bargained for.
Remember, choose your battles wisely.
