Perspective

A lot of times, (but not always) I can’t pick a side. Sometimes, when there’s a debate, or some kind of argument going on, or some issue being discussed, I don’t know where I stand. I used to think that maybe it was because my personality is devoid of substance, or because my head is devoid of a brain, but over time I have discovered that it is just the way I am. I have general opinions, preferences, and dislikes, but geez, some of the kids out there are just so damn opinionated, and when I see/read some arguments, I can’t take sides, because I can see the ideas of both sides as valid, and both perspectives make sense. Maybe it’s because I can always slip into other people’s skins. I don’t know if it’s a blessing, or a curse, but I am able to take a step back, and view the situation very clearly, from afar –  a detached view which takes it all into account, a holistic perspective. And sometimes, I think that all things are right, it just depends on how you look at them – all a matter of perspective.

I feel like I haven’t explained this properly, but at the moment, I don’t know how to. And people just don’t get this, they think I’m either very quiet, or just stupid and vapid. Or all of the above.
