ILL words to the ear

When was the last time you felt like you couldn't tell anyone about a pain? A pain that kills only you and no one else? And that when you tell others about, they'll just say you're being sensitive??

Me and my fellow colleagues was about to leave for a movie yesterday....and i got caught up with some work, which has nothing to do with me. It wasn't my job, neither was it my shift. While some thinks that I was so nice to "help out" with it, others thinks I was desperately trying to get away with it. So, why is it wrong that i make plans on the nights I'm not on shift, and not staying back for what isn't my job?!?


I always say this; when a sarcastic comment is said once, its a joke. Said twice, still a joke. Say it the third time, its an insult.


Colleagues who are reading this, I did not put myself into a scene yesterday for no reason. I was insulted. If others wouldn't agree, I don't care. To others it may seem like a comment that didn't mean anything....to me it hurts.


It hurts me that while I was only trying to get things in line before I leave - with a bunch of people waiting ONLY for me - i was seen as escaping responsibility. If others would see me as "just being too sensitive", then so be it!


I personally think of myself as quite a relenting person. But there's just one thing I can't standby and ignore; being unappreciated plus accused!!


While today I act as though nothing happened yesterday, but I secretly hope that others will let it go but never be as ignorant anymore.

It matters not that people can be insensitive. It matters not that you're sensitive. What matters is that the principles within are intact irrespective of the circumstances. For when all is added up at dusk, it is he who was true to oneself that will walk the last mile with the head held high.

Remember, a day never changed destiny, but the lessons of a day can shape your destiny. Take the positives, leave the negatives.

I know, I'm full of shit...
