What is on my mind today?

CONFUSION!Some people say things that are so crazy and disrespectful that they don't even realize it.I understand some people have word vomit but it’s inexcusable. If you say something to someone and you had not wanted to say it; it’s no different than you having said it intentionally. The reason being that for an individual to say something it means that they had processed it in there head before it came out of there mouth.However, my question is how far is to far? I’m sure everyone has come in contact with a situation that is just plain crazy. Where you get mixed emotions and are left in a state of confusion. When you want to make everything okay but having felt down about the scenario your left thinking...Is it really worth it?! People in this world are disconcerting. Many people are for the most part the same; you always want to think and believe that they are different but then things are done that prove that there is no difference between them......

Dear Misty,

I have read your post on people and their ways. What I felt caught my attention is "If you say something to someone and you had not wanted to say it; it’s no different than you having said it intentionally. The reason being that for an individual to say something it means that they had processed it in there head before it came out of there mouth." I totally disagree with this because honestly I have been one of those who said something out my mouth with no intentions on saying it. I feel it comes naturally. Everyone has their boiling points in life. When a person snaps their not doing it on purpose and sometimes without realization they go off. Its totally different for a person who's always disrespectful and careless to others because that would mean that they are doing it intentionally with no regrets.

I enjoyed reading your post. I wouldnt mind commenting on more of your post to give you my perspective.

Dear Diamond.

Your comment was interesting to read because it is enlightening to see an opposing view on something that I believe. It helps to give insight on how another person may think and consequently feel.When you stated "Everyone has their boiling points in life. When a person snaps their not doing it on purpose and sometimes without realization they go off." I understand that people have limits and when pushed too hard they may snap but I believe that when someone is angriest at you they may say there true feelings. The reason being that they are no longer concerned with the way you feel or how you may interpret what exactly it is that they may or have said.

As I had stated before in order for someone to state something they must have thought about it for some time before stating whatever it may be that they feel is necessary to say. Whether it be for an hour,a day or a split-second the thought was still processed and clearly felt enough for someone to have stated it.Although, there may be instances where people id not or regret having stated the pain has already been inflicted. What the person does....there next step is what makes the difference between hurting someone permanently or being forgiven.However, as someone who has had scenarios like this occur I can honestly say that it creates doubt in the other persons mind as who you truly are and how you truly feel.

As I stated before though it is all about how the individual goes about correcting or choosing not correct the situation that makes the difference!

Thnx for your comment; I look forward to hearing your perspective!

Words & Their Everlasting Effect

Submitted by ojomom on Wed, 2012-02-01 15:12.

Dear Misty,

I really enjoyed reading your article “ People!!”.I fully agree with you in regards to how people both act and interact with each other and also the lack of effort they put into choosing the words they speak. For some reason, people "think" or " believe" that it is right to say whatever they please without truly interpreting the potential consequences of their words. Words themselves are a very powerful weapon when spoken either in public or behind closed doors. They have the power to ignite and incite a variety of responses... even radical and irrational ones (at times) from the person (those) it was intended toward. People today, don't think before they act. They just.... act without thinking about tomorrow- just the moment. The world we live in or more rather the world we we were born into and forced to bear witness to is a cruel one Misty, filled with many different types of people - in many different forms. There are those ( people in the world) who wish for nothing more than to bring about chaos and as a result of the desire for chaos hate and conflict. A form of that chaos may materialize on one of your worst days and someone says something truly inexcusable and unforgivable to you. Once they do, a spiral has already been set into motion. The thing is, will you let it spiral out of control by reacting the way they want you to or will you react in a way that you control the outcome of the situation you are facing and not become a scapegoat for chaos to prey upon in a moment of weakness- no matter how dire it may be?

Dear Ojomo. I am glad to see

Dear Ojomo.

I am glad to see that you enjoyed reading my post and agree with my post. I enjoyed reading your comment especially how thoroughly you went into accurately posing your opinion. One statement you wrote that I agree with 100% is "the lack of effort they put into choosing the words they speak." because you will find all too often that people make excuses for why they say the things they do.Another, being "There are those ( people in the world) who wish for nothing more than to bring about chaos and as a result of the desire for chaos hate and conflict. A form of that chaos may materialize on one of your worst days and someone says something truly inexcusable and unforgivable to you." this statement is undeniably true. The question you had asked at the end on how one may react is different for different people but very true the way one reacts does alter the outcome of the situation.

GOT DAMN Misty this touched

GOT DAMN Misty this touched my heart ♥. Your words were sent in a state of mind as to where the reader will have to think their way out of a similar situation of their own. You had my mind running back to "who's fake and who's real ?" but to answer that no one will ever know, like you said "Many people are for the most part the same; you always want to think and believe that they are different but then things are done that prove that there is no difference between them......" and this couldnt of been said any better !. but my only response to you is if things are said out of anger, no that does always mean it was thought about being said once before and that it was right or true to be said. but perfect post for me , I enjoyed it ♥.

Thanks for your comment! This

Thanks for your comment!
This post was written because I am sure that we have all come across instances where this has happened.People do say things that are not okay.It is an undeniable fact that though the situation may be corrected and accepted as wrong or untrue to be said; the instance remains in your head. At any point something else may occur and it will bring you back to that scenario. Whether, it be with the same person or not; these things mold our perspectives on others.
It's nice to hear your perspectives though!=]

And i couldn't agree anymore

dear misty

I am content about your post "People!!" because its true, most people have this bad habit of talking crap about someone else with out knowing the true about that person. Thats something i really dislike about high school, not only the fact that schools boring but all the crap that goes around and the rumors people like spreading.

One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is "I understand some people have word vomit but it’s inexcusable." I think this is great because people do have this thing to say things without thinking and the cause of that could lead to fight, arguments and or conflicts in which lots of people are involved because of that small thing that was said. People shouldn't say things without thinking, which is very difficult for many.

Another sentence that i agree with is "Many people are for the most part the same; you always want to think and believe that they are different but then things are done that prove that there is no difference between them......"This stood out for me the most because i truly believe the people who say there different end up being the same or worse than what they claim not to be.

your post reminds me of something that happened to me in my old school, there was this rumors saying i had stabbed someone, the funny thing was that i wasn't in school for a whole month because i had a situation at home. The second i walk in i see everyone walking away which was like what the heck is going on, until i found out. And Thats how stupid rumors spread.

Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because this actually made me think of my past experiences. Hope to see another post soon.
