Here's a reminder. We tend to judge so easily, but often forget that we know nothing about other people's lives. You don't have to say anything nor pretend to be thoughtful, kind, caring, if you don't feel for them; just watch your words. You can never know what obstacles they're facing or how hard it is for them to just get through the day. Sometimes, it's better to stay quiet than to rub salt into their wounds. Think twice before you speak.
I heartily agree,
However, I think that everyone should also acknowledge that unless they've made their hardships known, people are going to be ignorant of them and may unwittingly say something hurtful. It's not intentional malice and there's really no point in letting the words of some stranger get you down.

On that note, people seem to go to extremes. They're either nosy or completely ignorant. Generally speaking, genuine people are hard to come by, which opens up a whole different subject that tackles psychology and ethics more than anything. It would be wonderful if we could all be at our best all of the time. World would be an idyllic, and dare I say it, perfect place. Reality is thankfully different.
Those people that hurt us, they do us a favor in the long run. It's funny the way life works. It's just an unbreakable (figuratively) cycle of unfortunate evens intertwined with special moments and life-changing realisations. Much like a highway at lonely, dark hours, lit by street lights and occasional cars passing by.
I can't stop talking, can I? I hope all of this made sense. I'm still under the impression of thoughts that kept me up all night after watching "Manchester by the see" - a good movie with a powerful message. This concludes another get-your-life-together session. Thanks for reading, virtual bunch of cool people.
P.S. I was referring to real life situations, but I do see how that can apply here. Well said.2 -
I really want a coke zero, but read recently that diet pop can make you fat.
Random thought...I used to be paranoid that diet pop really did have calories, like it was some conspiracy or something!4 -
