Don't quote me.


Yes, everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. I am. And that gives me all the right to express them here in my green room. Should anyone has any violent reaction, I will respect it. Just as I am expecting people to respect mine.

Anyone can just talk about his or her personal opinion about an observation or a situation. Yes. That is already given. But, come on, being overly opinionated, I guess, is way overboard.


What do I mean by “being overly opinionated”? Well, I chose the term to mean, expressing an opinion without the capacity to perform a suggested action which was thought to be helpful in solving a problem. Don’t get me wrong. Sometimes, I get to be a lil insistent myself, too.

My point is, one must not talk as if with complete certainty unless they are themselves capable of proving something is truly workable. Or at least, they have based their opinion from a previous experience. Opinion requires credibility.

“Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hope not many people are guilty of this. Because really, it sucks to hear people say things without them meaning it. We throw judgment on a particular episode. Something that we know nothing of. We go to a party and an unexpected thing happens. We just go and talk blahs! Why? Because we always think we know better.

Lemme remind everyone that one solution which worked for you may not work for me…may not work for the person next to you…may not work for everybody else in the room with you. So do not think that your idea is that brilliant!

Who knows your suggestion have already been thought of and considered before you even thought of it? Because truth of the matter is, each one of us is a thinking person. Each one of us has our own set of solutions enumerated in our heads. Thing is, not everything is as simple as it may seem.

So, if what you are about to say will do nothing good but in stead make other people feel bad about themselves, it’s better to keep your opinion to yourself. There is a better way to do constructive criticism. And definitely, it is not by sharing your own mindless, insensitive and unproven opinion. So save it.

I'm lonely and I'm too tired to talk

You Sometimes Hold a Grudge

You aren't exactly vengeful, but you're not going to forget when someone wrongs you.
And while you'll forgive the small things, you don't hand out too many second chances to people who really screw up.
Do You Hold a Grudge?


Maybe I do. If this ever happens, whoever wronged me had seriously wronged me (big time). Because I am not the type of person who gets easily angered. It takes a very distressing offense before something or someone makes me furious.

I admit, I am very emotional, yes. But unless you wound me by the core, I won't mind you. But expect that I will become noticeably aloof. This is to protect myself from getting deeply hurt. Because, there's a tendency for me to instantly trust with all my heart.

...and I can forgive like nothing happened. I'd disregard any wrong done to me for as long as I trust the person. To a point that I'd just condone someone's shortcomings.

All these have grieved me.

I blame another's cruelty on myself. Critically, I'd scrutinize my own judgment and actions. Is this still not enough?

Clearly, something had made me bitter. Whoever you are....YOU know how you've left a few scars on the walls of my already battered heart.

...but surprisingly, I have forgiven you. No matter how undeserving you are. Somehow, I hate that I still care. In the same way I used to care about you some time ago. Sadly, your personal issues have really made you worse.

Guess, I just have to pity you, in stead.
