My grandfather passed away recently. He was a generous man who always acted selflessly. His death hurt a lot of people and because he was such a public figure, there is a lot of media about it. It is not such a surprise that we are getting a lot of support.
My brother had friends whom he had not seen in over 2 years show up and console him. My mom's friend came in out of town to be with her. My dad worked closely with granddad so he has all the media and friends of the family, including his brother, there for him. I, on the other hand, am somewhat anti-social.
I broke up with my friends from high school because, after becoming a Satanist, I realized they were greedy ticks sucking the life out of me and cared more for themselves than anything else. Maybe I'm just being greedy but not once had they patted me on the back or tried to make ME laugh when I was crying and depressed. So, no help there.
My only friend left, I moved out with twice. She was nice. Always having a good time and when all this happen she was the first one I turned to (because she's the only one I could turn to). So I invited her to the reception. And she showed her true colors. I have never seen anyone more self absorbed. She texted me saying she "might be able to make but her husband comes home at that time and he'll be tired. plus i'm going to make cookies and i'll leave some for you." etc.
That's... stupid. I'm not wrong in thinking this right? Would normal people skip out on their friends, who break down CRYING in front of you, to make cookies? I don't even LIKE the cookies she made. Well, I still had some faith in her and went anyway. Nope. Did not show up.
Really I should have seen it coming. She and her husband sit on their asses all day playing Sims and/or WoW. They are part of the reason I quit the damn games because I did not want to end up like them!
I consider myself loyal. Foremost to Father Enki and my Guardian. Then my family. And, if I had any, to my friends. But so far I've seen I'm the only one who thinks loyalty means half a crap these days.
I'm sorry for ranting, you guys. But I really needed to get this off my chest. My granddad was a good man. I know this is said about most dead people but this time it's true. If you had met him, xian or not, he would have been your friend. And that's what I need right now. A friend.
Hail Father Enki!
Hail Lord Dagon!
Hail All the Mighty Gods of Duat!
