You know

Hurting and getting hurt are as inevitable as Thanos, maybe even as necessary as He was. No matter how much of a darling or saint you are, you have hurt someone, and no matter how high your walls are, you will get hurt, besides, why you have walls that high anyway? And I’m not even talking about karma, just the tragedy that life is.
So we’ve both been hurt before right? (if your answer is no, this is a rhetoric) an unpleasancy that was right? But then again, there exist some unpleasant people that do deserve these unpleasancies. So to them, this becomes an execution. But do you deserve these hurts you have been subjected to?(again, if your answer is yes here, this is a rhetoric.) no you do not. So this was not an execution right? Right.
Let’s switch the pov for a minute (don’t count)
You have hurt someone before, it isn’t your place to decide if you did or not btw. Now I’ll assume that at the time or perchance still currently love(d) that person or at least respect(ed) them. So when you fucked up, did they deserve the hurt? Was you fucking up an execution? (if your answer is yes stop reading this piece now and read the other one.)  So it was not an execution, and they did not deserve the pain. In turn this seeded remorse in you, you are sorry that they got hurt by you, really are I hope. Maybe if you could go back in time, you’d do things differently? And you tried to make up for it right? Doesn’t matter if it worked or not, you know what that feels like right?
That minute up there is up no? switches pov again
Now I agree that they hurt you, and you totally deserved better. But maybe they did not mean to, maybe the same way you are sorry when you hurt someone they really are sorry they hurt you. Are you thinking about that? That if they could go back in time they would do things differently? That they deserve forgiveness? I mean no one’s getting what they deserve but are you thinking about it?
Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not asking you to forgive them. No.
I’m letting you know that you know they are sorry. That they did not intend to end things like that. I’m  basically reminding you that you know that that does not mean loss of love or respect. Reminding you that you’ve been there. Quit acting like haven’t.

Let's go back to the Basics.

Life Goes On

  By this point my emote is ‘a guy that writes about things we already know and don’t really think about' and no shit Sherlock, the blog is called Basics. Anyways, one of those things happened again, I zoned out and life started reflecting. We all know that life goes on, or have at least used the ‘time waits for no man’ proverb in those primary school JESMA compositions (yuck), but do you ever really think about what it means? I know you know what it means, but do you ever really think about it? Life is the greatest show ever with extremely unprecedented twists and turns right thereafter WWE. But that’s the thing, life hasn’t been updated yet so you cannot pause or simply skip parts that you aren’t the audience for, you go through it anyways. A lot of resonance with life moving on is almost always attached to death and helping people that are grieving and that’s true but I think the more important part is to understand that life goes on even when you are alive. You see friend, li

The Art of Gifting

I intended to write about this way early into last year because of how shit the gifts I received that year was, but life comes at you so fast I hadn’t gotten time to research and do the yadayada before writing an article such as this. But then I met someone that reignited that spark only this time it was different, the complete opposite. They gifted me with sequences that were the most thoughtful gifts ever, and I mean ever. But then it occurred to me that it was much more than the thoughtfulness of the gifts and thus we are here to explore gifting a little more. I am overflowing with emotion over those gifts as I write this; Before we delve into it, love languages are meant to be independent as well as integrated and as such, this article is not meant for gifters and lovers that only understand love in gifting rather this is an article for you if you intend to express a little more love into the world, to your loved ones, to your victims. You see dear reader, gifts aren

The Long Distance Dilemma

By -

If you are in a long-distance relationship perhaps it isn’t the best thing for you to read my thoughts on it. You would not agree one bit with everything else in this piece but if you do insist on hearing me out- a grain of salt. (and no, Juja and Rongai do not count as a long-distance relationship). The following is a conclusion I came to on why I, which of course denotes personal preference, would not be in a long-distance relationship. Of course through a multitude of conversations with has-beens and even currents in long-distance relationships. So I know what you’re thinking, “he’s probably going to say his love language is physical touch and yadda yadda,” but you’re wrong. If you’ve read my blog you know I don’t believe in those. My opinions are not that superficial, unfortunately. I found that like a lot of things in life, ldr’s are difficult and complicated but basically in my opinion it came down to this. Love, in its essence, remains unaltered by distance. From how
