Me? A cheerleader?!!

a gud friend of mine recently told me dis, 'u nou wat? u're everyone's cheerleader' after i've been there 4 him in one of his many 'down' times. n dat statement made me thinks whether dats actually a gud thing or a bad thing...

wat exactly is a cheerleader? according to d dictionary, a cheerleader is a person who leads spectators in traditional or formal cheering esp. at a pep rally or athletic event or an enthusiastic and vocal supporter or sumone who expresses or promotes thoughtless praise; an adulator.

so am i really a cheerleader? as far as i nou, i dont have d look nor d body nor d move nor d sexiness nor d attitude dat qualifies one as a cheerleader. i've never ever even held a pom-pom all my life. but if base on d definition above, maybe i've been a 'cheerleader' more than once in my life. not in d miniskirts n pom-poms kinda way of course but more 2ward d cheering-for-people-who-really-need-cheering kinda way. i've cheered 4 a bunch of people all my life whether its family or friends. i made some gud friends along d way. n it sure did improved my relationship wif some of them too.

but life as a cheerleader is not all fame n glory. more than once between all those cheering, jumping, cartwheeling, n backflipping, u will trip n fall. not everyone loves a cheerleader. in some places in d world, cheerleaders are even rated one of d most hated human beings on d face of earth. some people thinks dat d act of a cherleader is revolting, nauseating, sickening n loathsome. personally, i faced my own obstacles as a 'cheerleader' countless times. i've been chastised, despised, scorned and loathed by some bcoz they thought i'm juz meddling n interfering in sumone else life. god knows i only do dis bcoz i CARE (do they even nou d meaning of dat word?). but its no point in clearing d air to those people. u cant make everyone luv u rite? they can critized me all they want. as long as i nou i'm doing d rite thing and no soul was harm in d process then i'm all gud. plus d number of friendships dat i made overruled d number of haters dat i unintentionally made.

yet sometime, being a 'cheerleader' is tiring me up. dont get me wrong. i'm not saying i hate doing all dis but its juz dat sometime cheering 4 others makes me forget 2 cheer 4 myself. it also makes me wonder, if i'm everyone's cheerleader then whose mine? no doubt my mom is my ultimate cheerleader but other than family who is/are mine? would any of those people i cheered 4 will cheer 4 me back? i know a couple of them would never think twice of cheering 4 me. but wat u really wanna nou is whether they are ur cheerleader only in victory time or are they willing 2 cheer 4 u even if u lose. n a cheerleader who cheers 4 d loser is much more worthy than d one cheering only if u score.. hmm...

now who's UR cheerleader?

think about dat.

daaa......
