breaking free

Freedom is that instant between when someone tells you to do something and when you decide how to respond. -Dr. Jeffrey Borenstein

I Just Don't Understand

Sometimes I just don’t understand


What on earth causes people to do something completely out of character

Is it just arrogance

Do they believe that they are better than others

And can act however they please


I just need to get away

Away from the pettiness and self involvement

The negativity

Judgment

Thievery

Lies

Backstabbing


I need to get away from those who think they are outwitting me

When all along, I am just being the bigger person

By not pointing out their obvious deeds of deceitfulness


Sometimes I think we take each other for granted

We don’t realize how much we actually mean to each other

Until after we have said/done hurtful things


We are good at hiding it though

After days of stewing

Conversation will randomly start as if we had never done anything cruel to one another

I am scared that this will not always be the case


What if the day comes when the conversation is never restarted?
