There are three types of people in this world:
Some people are naturally "for" the people.. Those who can immediately connect into a group, instantly become popular and eventually the leader. They leave a mark on every person they touch, and others only gaze after them in awe, perhaps envy. They are idolised, at least for that phase. But I've also seen that many times, such people are also the most insecure, always seeking attention, adulation and approval from others. Popularity is extremely fickle, and respect not easily earned. Also, very often, they are very lonely, even right in the midst of a crowd. They have very few close friends.
Others are the "quiet leaders". Without seeming to do much, they always manage to swing the group their way, because they earn respect, and their opinions carry weight. They may not always be the life of the group, but they are definitely the soul. They have a few close friends whom they keep close, and don't really care what the world thinks of them. In spite of, or perhaps because of their non- flamboyance, they capture everyone's hearts.
The third type of person is the indifferent. They are content to follow the crowd, simply because they don't care enough, or are afraid to voice their opinion. They may have brains, but are simply too lazy to use them, or think it's cool to pretend not to care. After a while, they are simply not noticed and fade into the background.
They say that it takes all types of people to make this world. I agree. If all these types of people and temperaments wouldn't exist, life would be extremely dull.
Every person you meet is part of your story. Some may be integral parts, while some you may simply brush off. We choose whether to add that spice in our story, or simply leave it bland :)
