I cannot live, I can't breathe unless you do this with me

How do we decide what one thing is worth more than another, what things are most important, what our priorities are?  Lately I have come to the realization that things I learn from people are of  so much more worth than things I can learn in the classroom.  And who should take precedence in our lives?  Those who reciprocate everything we put out for them or those who never see everything we give?  I think I usually give and give and give, always caring, but most often it's for the ones who don't give back.  I have some sort of subconscious thought that maybe they will someday see the light and see every bit of love I have for them.  And maybe, right then, they'll give it all back.  Lately, though, I wonder if it's worth it.  Will they ever choose to love me?  Will they ever see me as I see them?

If you follow the path that society takes you down... you will become just like everyone else, a product of your surroundings. Those who take the risks, loving someone even though they may question if they are ever truly loved back or appreciated. One of the biggest things sadly only a few people learn, is how to see the world through there own eyes, not just as society would see as right or wrong but when you can truly observe whats happening with an open mind and find the true reasons and not always conform with popular belief. 95 percent of what I do on this earth while im here may not ever be known may not be appreciated but thats not gonna stop me from doing those things.
