			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Barista can&#8217;t possibly understand why people insist on judging other people. &#8220;You should never judge until you&#8217;ve walked in their shoes.&#8221;</p>
<p>Barista thinks this is sooooooooo boring. How dare you judge someone? How the hell dare you?</p>
<p>Barista also hates the fact that people would prefer their friends to go through exactly what they&#8217;re going through, if not more. Is that fairness? I don&#8217;t think so. Think it&#8217;s ego and fear. If you choose and want to be strong, then be strong without complaining about it. And if you need help, then ask for it, don&#8217;t demand or expect it. Nobody&#8217;s as &#8220;strong&#8221; or &#8220;smart&#8221; or &#8220;beautiful&#8221; as you&#8230; Some are actually weak, dumb and ugly and would like to walk this planet too. Go figure.</p>
<p>Barista needs a massage.</p>
<p>Barista thinks that when you give love, or do something for someone, you should NEVER EVER expect something in return.  Nobody&#8217;s forcing you do anything. You choose to.</p>
<p>And to conclude, Barista wants y&#8217;all to know that you&#8217;re all snakes, not just her, and that &#8220;the more people I know, the more I like my dog&#8221; does work. Not in all cases though.  For there are people who manage to keep their angelic side above their snake side (thank you for the thought, <a href="http://atomicpotential.design.officelive.com/default.aspx" target="_blank">liberatedself</a>). And to those people Barista bows, for they are strongest.</p>
<p>Barista is a coward.</p>

<p>Barista&#8217;s thoughts shouldn&#8217;t be associated with the owner of this website&#8217;s thoughts. They&#8217;re purely fictional. =)</p>
