lately, i've been overwhelmed by the many things that have been happening, not just myself but also, the people closest to me. i feel very upset i cant do anything more than listening and giving my personal opinion. the relationships between people can be so simple and complicated. all because of one word, which i would like to say, perception.people change with time, for better, for worse. the efforts do not necessary pay off. love bears no return. people may appreciate or they may not. if appreciation is not shown, the other party will never know. relationships between people are supposed to grow with time, but in my case, its stagnant. havent grown abit since the longest time. i've tried hard but to no avail.why are we, women, perceived as unreasonable all the time? are all women unreasonable? are all men reasonable? i doubt so. its human nature to see others faults but not yourself , which is why self-reflection comes in. in a moment of anger, depending on the intensity of it, our objectivity differs. on a scale of 1 - 10, if someone's anger hits 8 and above, i dont think that person can still be objective. anger causes destruction, so angry people should be given some time of peace to calm down. something that not everyone knows.i remember a close friend of mine, conveyed the secrets of how to maintain a relationship: love, respect, understanding and support. (something like that, i cant recalled the exact words) being screamed at is something not very nice, and i had several experiences, besides struggling, pushing, grabbing.. respect is not shouting or blaming the person over a minor issue and demanding that the person think like you, speak like you and do things like you. i am not a puppet. i have a mind of my own, if people do remember.who is responsible for my life? me.
who controls my movements? me.how much does it take for a strong and independent woman to fall? a bad guy. girls love bad guys. how true is that?for now, i just cant be bothered with anything and anyone except those who truely care. friends who listen, friends who share.. i'm always there, you know that!
loves
