When ever you talk to someone there is always that age old question that is always used, and it does not matter whether they already know the answer or not: How are you doing? or How are you today? Always something in that veriation of the text. Yes, I admit to using that from time to time.

Life is an open book. If you really wanted someone to know about your life then you would just tell them and that would be the end of it. Instead of that everyone wants to get all up in your buisness and start asking you the 20 questions gig and then critisize you about your life. That is about the point that you start to second guess things you have done and such, when in reality you should be asking yourself this question, 'What makes their life so great that they can look down on the way that I live mine?'

For those of you that do not know me I am in the US military and have met alot of people and learn alot of things. One of the most important things that I have ever learned is that you should never assume that you know all there is to know about someone within the first month. Spend time with people and listen to the things they say and watch how they treat different people in different situtations and that will tell you whether or not that person has moral values or not.

The people you choose to be around you defines who you are. Take a look at those people that you hang out with and the things that they do and see just what kind of person you really are. The is no price in the world that can rival knowing what another person is made of. That knowledge will tell you whether you can trust that person, whether that person will be there when you need them, and how that person will feel about certain aspects of life with you.
