the filtration process.
it's crazy ain't it? it's one thing to filter coffee, water, etc... but, to filter PEOPLE out of your life - it's such a crazy concept to me. but, i've noticed that i do it at least once or twice a year. it's my way of getting rid of the old and keeping the ones who matter.
i had a long talk with my "big brother" on my trip to fresno this weekend, and i realized a lot about myself and the people that i choose to surround myself with. over the years, i've gotten rid of people who brought me down, influenced me (in a bad way), and most recently, people who use me and take advantage of my generosity... i've realized that friendship isn't about "how long" you've known someone, but how they treat you, that really matters.
i'm blessed to have the people that i DO have in my life right now. they're people that i would bend over backwards to help and know they'd do the same in return. so, for those of you who are still in my life, thank you.

you know whats crazy? you are crazy. i knew you. and you seriously fucked me up. fucked up relationships i had with people. you took advantage of me. you lied. you manipulated. you pray and pray, but you're still a bad person. a sinful person. you may pretend to be all religious and shit now, and you may have confessed your sins to a priest, but you haven't been forgiven...not by me and not by the others that you've fucked up. the priest/pastor may have told you to say a million prayers and you may have donated a million things to the needy, but you're still fucked up. and you still fucked people up. and you're still awful. and you'll always remain awful in my mind and in the minds of many. you've never once reached out to apologize and for that...you'll never be forgiven.
