(no subject)
It was a great day today. School was awesome and the sun was shining.
It bothers me sometimes that we think that we know others without really getting to know them. We say things, do stuff and spread rumors just because we don't think anybody will get hurt.I found it interesting that today a guy from school that I hardly know, he is in one of my classes, decided that he would call me an asshole and spread rumors about me being gay just "BECAUSE I WANTED TO." thats what he said to my best friend at school.
I am out as much as I need to be at school, out enough to volunteer at a National Gay Hotline in the city. Out enough to have a rainbow sticker on the back window of my car. So I guess that means that I am OUT. But still, it is none of his business to say anything about me, since he doesn't know me, doesn't know my friends, or how many friends that I have.
I think I am going to call him out tomorrow at school so we can have a Nice Big Talk. No I am not a fighter, so there will not be any punches. Probably a few choice words, but most of all I want him to know me, to know that sometimes I bitch, sometimes I laugh, sometimes I am very closed. Basically I just want him to know who I am and what my heart says about him.
Homophobes, are usually the biggest fems bitches in the world. That is what I think of him.
But the reason I am writing this is for all of us to think, before we talk. Think about what we say, how it might hurt somebody, how it might be the wrong thing to say. I mean just because what we might say sometimes could be true, it is still not our place to say it.
Like here in LJ which I sorta like, but sometimes it really bugs me. I put comments in more peoples journals than I have as my friends, so does that make me a bad person. I sure hope not because I will do it until somebody asks me not too.
Anyway I guess I have rambled enough. Hope it all made sense.
Thanks for reading.
Till next I write.
