Who do you sit next to on the rides at Valley Fair?

After working at Wal-mart at different locations, I realized that the job is the same, the scenery is the same, but it's the people.... The people are what make the difference!! (Wait a second... I think it says that on your name badges...) Also on The Office, Michael Scott says that about Dunder Mifflin as well, that their amazing customer service is key. "People sell paper."



The human race cohabits in groups. We are not like lone wolfs. We help each other to advance. That's the whole idea of the market place. I plant the vegetables and you buy them from me, while you make clothes and I buy them from you. The people you live with, the people you work with, the people you play with: think about them. If they were different, your life would be different.



Having people at places like the mall, the movie theater, the state fair wouldn't be the same if they weren't crowded. Even if you never even interact with 90% of them, just having them there is half the point. Having people at Valley Fair makes in more fun. It just wouldn't be the same if you went there alone. (Granted, some people could see the fun side of this, but that's not the point). Maybe the idea is to realize we will always be around people. The one you choose to sit next to on the rides makes the difference. Maybe things won't always be exciting. Sometimes you just have to wait in line. But remember at least you have someone to wait with you.



And it's not much fun waiting in line alone...though you could strike up a conversation with the person next to you. Though that can be awkward. And that may only last as long as the line goes for that ride; As people are always moving in different directions. The only thing that's constant is change. Nothing is permanent. You may think they're permanent, but every step in life is just temporary. For example, I went to college for 4 years at one school. Seemed like a permanent choice, but now that it's over, I'm moving on to the next step. You might have a roommate locked in for a year. But really think about it, it's only one year of your whole life.



Though it would be nice to meet that one person you can always go to Valley Fair with and sit next to knowing they'll always be there. And hopefully you've picked someone that will always make the day better and enhance your Valley Fair day. I could go to Valley Fair and have a good time, but I'd rather go with someone else and have a GREAT time. :)

That's all for now...
