It’s funny, I was reading Li
ttle Truckers blog the other day about how she was getting grief from people for having a laugh and a bit of fun. Then after I received a particular letter on Saturday, I kinda get the feeling that there are people on this planet who really need to take the stick out of their ass….
But after writing a letter in reply, I just sat back and thought ‘just how much do I even give a crap?!’. I do not have to follow the requests of these people at all, as no explanation was actually given to their issues especially after over 6 months of access to this site. The bottom line is I don’t give a damn about people whom can’t communicate, can’t stick to thei
r professional responsibilities or simply give as good as they get.
What a waist of humanity….
This does not include the weak, or those who can’t help themselves - some folks just aren’t built to deal with stuff.
You see, I must admit I play with people, show me a weakness and I’ll either exploit it or use it in humour. But generally it’s only with them. The other thing is that in this bizarre life, I’ve had to do things that many people have trouble even understanding (heck, they’ve no idea what I have to deal with). So the mention of these things can shock the pants off people – this I also sometimes find amusing to do. I really am a Devil’s Advocate in this regard.
So yes, boundaries can be crossed, anger can follow, but hey – life is for the living. Because if I really wanted to shock, upset and annoy – believe me, my obnoxiousness knows no bounds.
But generally, I like to placate people, be reasonable and have a reasonable laugh. I have no interest in upsetting or annoying anyone personally. So if you need to whinge, rant and complain, then fine – but do so in a reasonable manner. If you think I’m being unreasonable – say so… Don’t throw you’re toys out of the pram!
Heck I got to the point a few years ago whereby dealing with other peoples insecurities and issues had lead me to making a conscious decision not have another relationship EVER… They are not my problem… If people want to be offended – they will be, if they don’t – then turn away. If you feel insulted SAY SOMETHING….
Life is many things to all of us and our faces tell that story – heck, I’m 43 and look 63 and feel,(oops, I don’t do that)….lol
I admit, I’m not good socially – ‘misfit’ is an understatement. The last thing I want to do is be ‘slimey’ around someone that I simply like, but I’m not that skilled in this stuff. If you want me to get serious for a moment here it is; When I see an unbridled potential in someone, I’m drawn to them – especially when they can’t see the sheer bloody brilliance of their own abilities. Even more if they appear to be playing second fiddle to a moron!
Sadly though, I lost someone I respect highly in this unwritten debacle. But I shall not think or speak of them anymore because when I really needed them, they were not there! and in my world that just ain’t done – not ever…
