Complaining that the World is Such a Terrible Place..?
If you hear bad things about me that means I'm alive. People only talk good things about dead people.
That's true too often. But, its up to each person every day to do differently. Easy to complain and blame others for how the world is... what have you done yourself to make it different/ better? Not pointing at you and yet it is each individual who can make a difference in small ways. Different choices. Maybe keep criticisms back and find something good to say instead. Or just give a friendly smile even on a day when you are stressed, down, etc yourself.
Also, it is true that a smile makes them wonder what you're up to.
You ever want to jump on someone's post and be like, "shut your fraudulent lying ass the fuck up".
First, that is not written well. Anything with "be like" in that way sounds childish. The way the quote is written is too disrespectful and begins any conversation with antagonism. So, whatever you point is, it will likely be lost in the aggression you bring.
Secondly, it has to matter enough. Most of the time it doesn't. Either it will start a fire I don't want to bother with, ignite a troll, or just take up too much of my time and energy and not change a thing, or make any difference. Confronting people isn't always worth doing. Most of the time I can find something else I'd rather do than headbutt a wall.
Self-sabotage is sometimes the nervous system choosing a pain it can schedule over a hope it cannot control.
Reasons I do things:
- Someone said I couldn't.
- Someone said I shouldn't.
- I got told no.
- Out of spite.
- I was left unsupervised.
- I got bored.
- Pure stubbornness.
- To prove a point.
- Cause I said I would.
- For the plot.
- Cause I can.
- To see if I can.
I wish that was always the case. Most of the time its because someone needed, demanded, asked me. So many things I (we?) do that we don't want to do everyday. Looking after your parents as they get older and need help means you are never unsupervised. In the quiet times, at night, I remember I am still my own person. Someone who could have a list like the one above.
Nobody is important enough for you to be putting your energy into proving them wrong.
I hate when people say, "If you love me you'll accept me as I am". Loving you doesn't mean tolerating your refusal to develop emotional intelligence and heal your dysfunction. If you loved you, you would do the work so people who love you don't feel forced to walk away.
Sometimes people pretend that you're a bad person so they don't feel guilty for how they treated you.
Be careful about your words because you don't know how many times it repeats in someone's head.
I know every generation has their class struggles, but let me tell you about the summer of 1990 when Supersoakers hit the market and only a few kids could afford them and the rest of us were hunted for sport.
How did we end up in a nightmare timeline where groceries have become both a luxury item and a health hazard?
The universe is not punishing you. It is not blessing you. It is not controlling you. The universe responds to the vibration you are creating. Think happy and happiness will come to you. Think negatively and negativity will come to you. What we put in the universe, we will get back like an echo.
My days are backwards. I wake up tired and go to bed wide awake.
I don't follow people I don't like. I don't keep track of people I can't stand. It's wild to me that there are folks who religiously hate follow you and stalk your every move to attack. Please go heal and go to therapy.
Comment in reply:
I know someone who didn't care who followed her. Let them watch, she said.
Instead of giving a man the benefit of the doubt, how about we doubt the benefit of a man.
Never leave when it gets hard. Leave when it gets inconsiderate, inconsistent, and disrespectful.
You're a ghost driving a meat skeletong made from stardust, riding a rock, hurling through space. Fear nothing.
The best thing I ever did for myself was learn how to be a monster, an absolute monster then, how to control it.
