Keepin it simple tonight :P :nod:

I doodled the picture of the kid standing in the crowd and then wrote the poem around it. It was for fun as I've been quite bothered lately and this thought has crossed my mind a few times in the past week or so.

The world is so

BIG

and life is pretty

LONG

and I have to wonder how many people reeaaallly stick with someone in their thoughts for their whole life. Even if they only spoken for a month maybe.

Do you think you're making an impact on peoples lives?
With the way you act, dress or treat/help them? Why or Why not?

What's weird is that I was thinking somewhere along the lines of this question. And to be honest, my character needs work. I'm not a great person and I know that I'm not anyone special in any particular. I asked myself today, "If life were a movie what would be my part?" and I thought, "That person that says a few lines that are kind of odd. Maybe a funny thing or two, but mostly just odd. Probably stupid. When the movie's said and done, I'm not majorly memorable." :/

when i was a toddler, i had three friends who lived in the next town from me, and for four years every friday i would go and see them. but when we had to start school we went to different schools and i didn't see them again until one of them invited me to her 8th birthday party and the other two didn't remember me at all.

I used to wonder if my old friends still remembered me. Most of them were from kindergarten, so my ties to them are cut off. I still wonder if they think about me, but not as often. I wonder why?

It's a interesting thought and i do remember some people and i think it's very important to remember them it's a chance encounter so let it be a memorable one!

This is a great poem, it explains what I and other people feel. I'm going to be graduating from HS soon and I wonder about this all the time.

I try to help others but I'm the shy, book-worm type. I always smile and have a positive attitude, so maybe others will remember that about me?
Awesome work :)

i don't need people to remember me, my name, or w/e. the only important thing is the act

I can't say if I'm making an impact on other people's lives, but I can tell you that there are a select few (I can count them on the fingers of one of my hands, and thumbs aren't fingers) that have made an impact on me and I am going to be extremely upset if I ever lose contact with them.

Obviously, though, I didn't make a big enough impact on my best friend from second grade, because he sure as heck doesn't recognize me.

Then there are the people that I met once for a brief moment in time and lost. There was a little boy at the airport once who was going on the same plane as me, and he was so excited to talk to me. I was playing pokemon and so was he and he wanted to tell me all about his game. He showed me his pokemon cards and things, and he even gave me one. It's a Giratina.

Sometimes I wonder what happened to him, but at the time I had the feeling I'd see him again. Then there are the people that did little kind acts, like stopped to hold the door when I was still a ways back. Those are the people that inspire me to do the same, because I know that little act made me feel good and it's always nice to see that you made a person smile.

I always try to encourage people when they think they're not good enough. I always try to make people smile. Sometimes it's hard, because I can be an extremely cynical person at times, but it's always worth it. To get back on topic- in a way, I think the little things I say or do make a larger impact on people than other, larger things. It just seems that way.
