A Very William Night

I was talking with someone the other day, and they're the type of person that it's kind of assumed you don't like. They're cool with it, and I think for the most part they thrive on making you not like them.

Weird.

The weirder thing, is that I don't see it. I've only talked to him a few times, and never really gotten a chance to hang out with him, but I don't dislike him. I find him genuinely fun to be around. People find it quite easily to comment on his less than likable personality and are very disbelieving of my inability to find him unlikable.

Well, we were talking about this. We discussed his understanding of how people viewed him, as well as his ensuring people viewed him that way.

During our conversation it came up that I was too nice and, in a way, naive to see him as a unlikable person. He wasn't telling me it was a bad thing, but was instead telling me that it was due to the fact that I hadn't been truly let down yet.

I thought about it, and I haven't been devastatingly let down yet. Sure, I've been let down by people I trust, but I still, generally, manage to focus on the good in people.

Look, I'm the guy who picks fights with people who are openly bashing people they've never met over terribly outdated stereotypes. I shouldn't, but I dislike when people are being close minded and shutting out an entire population based on very wrong and close minded ideas.

So, it's quite possible that one day, my very trusting nature will be destroyed. I'm not going to deny the very real possibility of the World laughing in my face as I sit there broken and defeated.

The thing though, is that I don't think I'll stay there. If anything, the World will never be able to destroy my faith in God. I will always have that to carry me through rough times, and pick me up when I'm down.

Another thing though, and the part of this that deals with the title. Haha.

I feel like my blogs always have a opening, the title screen, and then go into the story. In fact, they do. My blog is TV show format. Haha.

So, Wednesday night. I went to the Jonas Brothers concert in Houston yesterday. I had planned to go with a friend, but plans fell through and I ended up going by myself.

I had initially planned to take a billion pictures, and videos and spam my Facebook and Twitter and Instagram with them. I didn't, however, because about two songs in I decided I wanted to just live this moment. I shut my phone off, and put it in my pocket, choosing to experience the concert for everything it was.

Now, I don't fit the Jonas Brothers demographic. First, I'm male. Second, I'm Hispanic. Third, I'm 21. Not necessarily in that order, and not saying Hispanics don't like Jonas Brothers, it just isn't the stereotypical demographic. While I was sitting there, I realized that I wasn't wanting to jump around and scream, or what not, but was just happy being there and experiencing it.

I've listened to them for quite a long time, and it was a wonderful experience being able to hear them singing the songs in person. It was one of those things where I never really envisioned myself being able to experience that.

To tie it all together, I realized that I won't ever become a more cynical person. The fact that I was able to listen to The Jonas Brothers sing a few songs, and not scream and shout or jump around but instead just bask in their music and feel refreshed, reinforced my belief that I'll be able to power through things. That I won't stay down, but will always find some aspect of life to find beautiful.

I'm glad I got to go to their concert, and will treasure that experience for a long time. So, shout out to the Jonas Brothers for producing music that inexplicably makes me happy.

Oh, and just for fun, here.

That song is super stuck in my head. Haha. Oh, and then listen to this one:

That's a good one too! =D

Next post should be another person specific post. Prize for whoever guesses it. =D
