so tired of all of this. the drama, the tantrums, the demarcation of first and second class. and i find myself wishing more than ever to just leave.
but running away never solved anything.
and i still wish that my first reaction isn't anger or sadness or self-pity. i wish that i was a better person such that my first reaction is to respond with a soft word, with humility, with love.
people will always wrong us, people will always hurt us. no matter who, when, or what, that just is the way of life. everyone is naturally selfish, it's something that just is because we can only inhabit our minds. no matter how much we try to see things from others' points of view, we are still limited by our own perspectives. recognising this, i want to try harder to be less selfish, to understand when people are lashing out just because they're hurt or angry. i need to be better.
not of myself, but of Him.
