In depth or shallow..

Have you ever spoken to people and realize that they have no ......... thinking skills or brains? Whatever they say just doesn't make any sense to you and they are just so shallow..
I always wished and hoped for friends who can speak and hold great conversations.. I guess i have to keep on looking for these people. So far.. i only have less than 5 people.
Unfortunately, there're many people in this world who cannot think critically and creatively.
Honestly, it disturbs the shit out of me.. 

Today, after a long long time, i manage to catch my long time friend online so i decided to chat with her.. and so i asked if she was doing well and bla bla bla.. good enough, she is doing well....
I shall not type out the details of our conversation, but this particular friend of mine, we had the same mentality back then in school. We could click and we're 95% of the time, our wave lengths are of the same box. But today, and many other occasions, she has expressed many of her personal opinions, which i found to be irrelevant to me. 

I feel that her mentality .... is just too hurting for me to go on talking to her.. I was kinda hurt by the opinions she expressed.. She comment that people without certs can't make money, and you can't have anything without money.. and i asked her if the guy she was going to marry was the one? she replied something like... " I am too lazy to find others ,and there's no one else"... and she added that she's not strong like me.. So i thought in my head... that is the most interesting reply i have ever heard of.

So... i thought to myself.. is this how people think? you just settle for whatever is within your reach and capacity? And i was particularly hurt by the fact she was so blinded by benjamins... *she earns quite a lot for a fresh grad and has recently bought a car, and traveled a few places* 
Honestly, i am quite sure i am far more less money than she has but i am grateful for everything is given to me. And i wished i could knock some sense into her, but i can't. i Failed at it.. horribly.
And i personally believe if i had the exact same conversation with another person or a younger girl.. i guess that i will be getting better, more satisfying answers.. Maybe its just her.

My parents are no grads,but i have almost the same opportunity as most people. I might not have a fat bank acct, but i can certain appreciate more things in life other than money. I most certainly have everything money cannot buy. =)
