Below is an extract of a MSN conversation I had with one of my friend.
- btw your not really that chatty nowadays
- you seem different, not really that approachable like in the past….
All I can say is, being too approachable had caused a little too much problems for me to handle for the last few months.
人与人间，保持一定的距离，有时对每个人都好。
No matter what was said, expectations are bound to arise after a period of closer contact.
I’m no saint. I’m not even near being a nice person. I can’t meet all expectations. And I hate the feeling that I’ve let someone down.
When there’s distance, there’s lesser expectations. Maybe it’s just better this way.
我仍然是个长不大的小孩，很多的事都还在用自己的理解去理解，而我的理解不一定正确。但是我们都在自己（不管多么卑微）的生活中吸取经验，学习成长。
每一个人都有自己对事情的看法与意见。我是俗人，当然也跳不出这个框框。但是，偶尔放下“自己”，去聆听别人的看法与意见。你可以不认同，但是不能否认，至少你找到了另一个看事物的角度。
自己的自尊有时并没有自己想象的那么值钱。
放下身段，学会聆听，努力成长，这是我们都要经过的路，对吧？
