welcome to the real world

Apr 24, 2006 21:43

So my past few blog entries have, I think, been rather pleasant. It's been nice. And I admittedly don't really want to rant. But I've had a rather trying weekend. Add to that, I'm very tired, and have homework to do before bed. Add to that, impending finals (one more week of classes, then finals, for those who aren't on college semesters).

I don't pretend to be worldly, or possess some great knowledge. I admit to being overly cynical at times, and having no desire to rid myself of my cynicism (I like it and it works for me, if you don't like it, don't read my blog and don't talk to me and you won't have to deal with it). However, it seems as though many people seem to have a highly naive, idealistic, head-buried-in-the-sand, view of life and people. I am one of these people sometimes, however, this is not one of those times.

It has come to my attention that people don't seem have any kind of understanding of the humans in general. *NOTE* I make generalizations. There are exceptions to EVERYTHING. I am well aware of that. I don't pretend that everyone can fall neatly into a category. But generalizations are easier to work with* This is to those such people. I'm sorry that the world can't give you exactly what you want. I'm sorry that you think it's ok to expect people to treat you like a five year old. I'm sorry that you're a hypocrite and get mad at people for doing something you. I'm sorry you don't acknowledge your actions and are blind to your faults. I'm sorry that the idea of taking responsibility for your actions is an unknown concept for you. I'm sorry that you don't realize that consequences have actions, people have feelings, and emotions. I'm sorry that you think you are blameless and faultless. I'm sorry that you don't realize that people can see things you can, and while what they see may be hurtful, it may also be true and might just be worth taking into consideration. I'm sorry that you think it's ok to shove your opinions down other peoples throats until they choke so that they can no longer argue with you. I'm sorry that you can't accept that other people are going to have different opinions. I'm sorry that people are a disappointment and don't act as you would like them to. I'm sorry that people's personalities and presentation of themselves changes often and is sometimes not to your liking. I'm sorry that you don't like people talking behind your back and conveniently forget you do it too. I'm sorry that you don't like that people say something negative about you behind your back and then are nice to your face, in the name of avoiding conflict. I'm sorry that you fail to take the feelings of others into consideration before you speak. I'm sorry that others fail to pay you the same courtesy. I'm sorry you think men are perfect and women are sane. I'm sorry you believe whatever people tell you and are unfamiliar with the idea of ulterior motives. I'm sorry you've taken on more than you can possibly handle and believe that none of the rest of us are up to our elbows in shit as well. I'm sorry you think no one cares. I'm sorry that you think that just because someone doesn't talk to you, or reach out that it means they don't want to be friends with you and aren't thinking about you. I'm sorry that you think that a post like this means I don't want to listen to your problems. I'm sorry that I can't display the right personality trait at the right time. I'm sorry you assume this whole thing is about you. I'm sorry you're not going to ask for clarification for anything from anyone. I'm sorry she's a whore. I'm sorry he's an asshole. And I'm sorry I'm a bitch. Most of all, I'm sorry you're disillusioned enough to believe that youre prefect, the world is a wonderful place where people are kind, loving, caring, considerate and honest. Because, really, you cant be, it's not, and they aren't. I'm sorry.
