We Can Fight If It Helps You Sleep
People have the right to feel whatever they happen to feel, and don't deserve ridicule or mockery. But I'm sorry, sometimes, I'm gonna be a bitch, and I'm gonna mock you, and it is because of this:
I HATE it when someone projects their insecurities and all their silliness and makes other people feel bad because they can't deal with their own shit. You can't guilt-trip people into respecting you. If you want respect, if you want attention, you have to earn it. If you blow things out of proportion and talk down to people because you need their love, it's entirely possible that you're not gonna get what you want. You can accomplish so much more with a kind word and a little grace.
I know, maybe I'm a bit of a hypocrite; it took me years and years to learn this for myself, but the knowledge is so simple that I feel I should have learned it a lot quicker, and I'm kicking myself now for all the hurt I caused other people.
If you feel neglected or left out, the best way to deal with it is to except it graciously, to simply learn to deal with it. And if you can do that, people will respect you so much more. They will respect you and then maybe they won't leave you out next time, because you've proved to the world that you are an adult; that you can deal with dissappointment.
Okay, I love you. I love the people this is addressed to, but I truly, truly think that I'm saying this for your own good, as well as the good of the people you make feel bad.
And also, I'm saying this for me, because truthfully, it hurts me a lot, too. And maybe I'm over-sensitive and it's none of my business, but there it is. I've said it, and I meant every word, and I'm not taking it back. I hope that maybe you'll get something out of it and see it as a suggestion rather than an insult or a sermon.
Sorry if it hurts.
