have you ever considered
that you are on the same team as your allies
why are you making things difficult?
are you worth the difficulty?
I am
But I work as hard as I can
as long as I can
"self care" deprecation
"resting" lazy
"relaxing" unmotivated
none of these apply
I'm *cooling down*

why do we have to work so hard to work
they should be ready and waiting, jumping at the chance to utilize our
expertise, our labour, our creativity, our kindness
they treat us like we owe them our time and motivation

If you don't have the energy, then people need to take care of you. Maybe they
do anyway. If you're anything like me, and in this regard I think we might be
similar, having people take care of you is *important*.

9 times out of 10 the answer is fuck yes, you're my friend, I support
everything you're handling. Give me the word and I'll be there, ride or die,
I'm here for it.
something I wrote a while back:
fucking boss your friends around
it's as easy as saying "hey I'm gonna go do this-or-that thing, you don't seem
busy can you do that-or-this thing for me? I need it done by this-and-this
time - oh you're busy? yeah no worries I'll go ask someone else. oh you're
busy resting? doing girl healing? hell yeah next time invite me I'm due for a
\"pizza and weed\" night."

Sometimes people convince themselves that they are a just and honest person,
when they actually aren't.
Usually how this works is that they live their life as normal, and when their
desires conflict with another persons, they'll relent and agree with the other
person *without voicing their concerns*.
Then, when it's time for the other 50% of the time when they get what THEY
want, they become stubborn and willful and resentful if they are contested.
It's always a struggle. It's always a battle. Why can't we just all get along?
Oh yeah, because some people don't tell you when they disagree.
Liars.

"are you helping or hurting?"
I'm speaking. I'm sorry. Some works hurt some and help others.

for some words.

the honest question to ask yourself is this:
do you think you could do a better job than him and his team?
how about the establishment politicians?
if yes, then go for it. you deserve a chance.
if no, then you are ignoring politics to bask in moral virtue. [wait that's

I'm not here for fame. Or power. I'm here to make sure things get done. That
they get better. When i am unneeded, i am home. If you want me, pull me forth.
If you need me, I'm already there. Fate guides me, and i know i will be
deployed when necessary. Compel me or dispel me, up to you. I personally just
like being around. I like feeling my stuff, knowing it true. Trust me when i
say, i am here for you.
