words that escape you can spread like a wildfire. true story.
How many of you have said something about one person and sooner or later, you realised that one person knew about what you said and is giving you the cold shoulder? Or have you ever found out that a secret you once gave away to someone is leaked to the public and everyone is giving you that weird stare?
Of course, a normal person would start pointing fingers about how nobody can keep certain things as a private and confidential matter. Well, truth is, what you say is what you are responsible of. It is okay if you trust someone and though it is hurtful, it is okay when someone breaks your trust. It actually is the nature of the earth. Everybody does the same thing. I know I do too. In denial?
Okay let us make this simple. Have we ever come across anyone that keeps us agitated and annoyed? Even the presence of their being makes you uneasy and all that rush to mind are the bad qualities that one person possesses (eventhough the number of rights that has been done is countless) So what do we do? We trash them. Trash and just keep trashing about them among our clan. Without us knowing it, our clans trash about that person with their other clans and the list goes on and on. One unfateful day, the words landed in the wrong hands and BAM! You're in trouble. I know everyone does this and usually, we get all defensive and start to bring others down with us (for we do not want to be blamed alone). Then we start making an invisible list inside our heads on who we can and cannot trust. Too bad sweetie, it's not an easy task to pin point and identify them.
And sometimes, people talk about you as a conversation starter and without them realising it, they are actually providing unnecessary information about you to others. We have to admit, we do this too sometimes. Okay now now who am I to tell you what to do. I have to admit that I do this sometimes. I know I know -.-
See. the thing is, you cannot make a list on who you can share secrets with. Nobody can be trusted (no offense to everyone) and not even yourself (no offense to myself). You just have to be careful with what you want to expose when sharing something to someone. Just make sure that once you have said something, you are not afraid of being judged when it is out in the open because what you say is your responsibility and if you refuse to be responsible, then might as well not say anything, no?
Just be forgiving when we feel like we have been wronged. We all make mistakes, don't we? I don't think anyone should be labelled as backstabbers. I would like to believe that they just haven't completely bloomed yet and is still adjusting themselves with life. Come on. As cliche as it sounds, nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. I know when I do, all I want people to know is that it wasn't done on purpose and how I wish I hadn't done it/knew better. Goes the same to everyone else, right? So let's forgive and make room for chances. Give and take people! Okay I know this is a long post and I have more things to say but as this gets longer, i get lazier. So that's it. This is just based on what I have been going through all the while I was growing up. Cheers to those who keeps on trying to better! May God be with us all always. Amen.
