Be Sensitive, Don't Be a Bully

Have you ever teased someone and felt good about it?
What do you feel when you make someone jealous?
Did you feel happy when you embarrassed someone in public?

What are your answers?
Are they all positive or negative?


It can't be helped but most people like seeing other people suffer or be ashamed of themselves. I see this kind of "habit" everyday. The other side is laughing while the other side stays silent and hides what he/she truly feels. Which side are you on? The abused or the abuser?

If you're the abuser, think about this: Will you want that to happen to you, too? You might have teased someone and tell the person that she/he's ugly, but who do you think is uglier? You might say he/she looks "Ugly" in appearance but who has the ugliest personality? You.

Someone's crush is more sweet and friendlier to you but you let that someone know all the sweet things he does for you and laugh at her about it? How do you feel? Do you feel happy now that you just broke her heart? Do you feel happy now that she might be crying herself to sleep just thinking about that? Tell me.

Got someone's embarrassing picture or video and everyone enjoyed watching it? How 'bout the person who everyone laughed at? Did he/she enjoy it? Did you feel happy now that you have ruined someone's reputation?


Will you have a good night's sleep because of these? I better hope not.

And as for you, the abused, don't let them take advantage of you. Stand up because you have the right to. Don't make yourself vulnerable and make them think that you're okay with that they are doing to you because in the end, you'll still be the one to suffer. Be strong because you're the only one that can help yourself get up. Make those feet of yours useful. You don't deserve those kinds of treatment at all.



You might say that someone bullied you before thus making you a bully yourself, but who's actually on the losing end here? You of course. You ended up eating their bait. Instead of making their bad habits as an "inspiration" for you to do better for this world and to lessen the number of bullies, you ended up like one of them.

Don't end up as the abuser or the abused. End up as a "changed person". Do good and better things will come your way. There might be a lot of barricades but in the end, trust me, all the pain is worth it.

Some Alone Time

This blog has been mostly about positive outlooks in life and the future, but allow me to give you a little gray cloud on a sunny day. For the past few weeks, my family has been asking me about my depression. They'd ask how can I still not get over my parent's death ( read about it   here ). How can I if that triggered my depression on? I know they're worried, they told me that they give me the things I need... but then I thought... I don't need material things, I just need them to understand. When they inquire me what's really happening inside my nutshell, I'd just look down and tell them that it's not easy to define, and I told them that I'll just express all of it to my psychiatrist. But today, I decided to write all about it. I know that the negativity of this post isn’t decent, but at least hear me out. 3 years ago, a year after my mom died, I understood my father’s constant drinking of alcoholic beverages, and I also understood all his s...

Goodnight.

It's almost 2am and my mind is filled with reasons why I couldn't sleep. I couldn't sleep ... because when you've said your last "goodnight" for today, I wondered if you'll ever need me for the next couple of hours. What if you couldn't sleep, or have been woken up from a nightmare, and I wouldn't be there to tell you that everything's going to be alright? Tell me what's bothering you at 3am and I will talk to you until you fall asleep. And by then I'll bid you Goodnight. I couldn't sleep ... because when I look at the ceiling, I'd wish that by the time I look beside me, I can see you, and not this pillow missing the warmth of your skin. And maybe by then we wouldn't need to have our phone in our hands, because I would intertwine your fingers with mine, and they'd fit perfectly, almost as if it's meant to be. And we'll look at each other's eyes Not on our phones Because we wouldn't have ...

Prayers

Remember that girl who bullied you yesterday? Or maybe that boy who teased awful things about you? Or those people who have let you down? What do you do to them? Do you bully them back or let them do what makes them happy, and that's hurting you? There's this line that says "Don't judge the book by its cover." We all know that it's about judgmental people. But come to think of it, are there people who don't judge?  I have read, seen, and heard about people's lives. About how cruel people to them are and how they just constantly tear them apart. But then again, we can't escape the fact that people like them exist, there will always be someone who will rain on your parade. But how did these kind of people exist? Let's go back to the girl who bullied you. Did you notice her scratches? How bout her bruises? No? How do you think is she treated at home?  Have you heard someone cry in your school's comfort room lately? THAT WAS HER. ...
