My blood boils, my eyes roll, and only one things goes through my mind: "What the freak are they thinking?"
I am always right. I am never wrong. They are dumb. I am smart.
How can someone be so irrational and illogical.
This is how I think occasionally when I am in a fight with someone. Usually the more I care about a person, the more frustrated I get in my speech. I need to stop thinking like this. I need to turn the page, and realize that even if I am right, even if I am being logical, even if I have full understanding, that I still am not perfect. It is not possible for me to be completely correct about a situation. If you disagree with me, I am going to take a step back, and not think about who is right or who is wrong, but try to see it from your perspective regardless of how I feel. It isn't about me looking smarter or better then the other people in the room, it is about me showing courtesy to those I interact with. I am very negative and critical because I think that I am right, and more insightful than the people around me. It is a huge flaw of mine, and something that is quite frankly hard to admit. I am sorry to all of you who I have hurt because of my stubborn attitude and my prideful heart.
It is a time to look back at how foolish I have been, and pray that I will learn how to be quick to listen in the future.
I really am sorry.
