What would you do if you’re on a verge of facing an emotional dilemma and you don’t have anyone to turn to? For others, a couple of cigarette puffs can calm them down; some bottles of liquors can temporarily mend their pain; or a movie-like crying in the corner with some razors on hand and trying to end his life. But he then remembers that on the next day, he has a class on Philosophy and can’t afford to be absent since his ultimate mega crush is there so his ‘ending of life’ was postponed. We have a lot of ways to release the frustrations, anger, discouragements from our system and as for me, I blog. By the time my fingers land on the keyboard, without any hesitation I thoroughly type until a voice inside of me screams on how bad my grammar is. I rant and used to use foul words in order to express fully my feelings on certain people and things.
One random day, the dashboard of the blogging site that I’m using was crashed because of some beasts, but the page wherein the posts can be read is available. On the same random day, a fellow Sillimanian asked for my blog url. At first, I was hesitant to share but ‘Asdfgh Qwerty’ is somewhat close to me so I spilled it up (Asdfgh knew my url before but I changed it some weeks so Asdfgh asked for it again). Due to some minor amnesia and clumsiness or just it’s-meant-to-be-exposed moment, the highlight of some posts has read my posts, nonetheless, Asdfgh. How awesome silly is that? By the time I shared my link, I got alarmed and want to delete my random posts about Asdfgh but again, the dashboard is still cool as crashed. At first, I felt bad but that random day turned out to be a blessing. My views on Asdfgh are out from jumping of conclusions. What my perceptions from Asdfgh’s tweets and pieces of status are way different from what’s happening in reality.
Drawing conclusions without further knowledge of the real deal usually lead to misunderstandings and fights but it can also be a tool for reconciling gaps. Of course, we have different views on different things and as much as we want to force the other to believe in what’s our stand, it’ll just have a boomerang upshot. What adds to the problem is when pride is beyond high and listening to the other party’s the worst thing to do, wherein no one seeks to understand.
I stand corrected and will always be open for anything that could make me better.
