Being in the vicinity of ignorant people is not my cup of tea. They try their best to convince me that they’re not like the rest. After time has pass, many have proven themselves to be just that. That’s when I disassociate myself from them, which usually lead to unfortunate events.

It’s so disheartening when someone close to you tries to hurt you. When they purposely want your heart to bleed. What is the quality of your intent? Certain people have a way of saying things that shake us at the core. Even when the words don’t seem harsh or offensive, the impact is shattering. The intent behind the words is what hurts me the most. Not the fact that you called me out my name. The fact that you tried to belittle me. The fact that you were trying to hurt me. It takes a lot for someone that I care about to make me feel like shit. But when you’re desperately trying to?…that’s when I feel betrayed. Can you imagine arguing with someone close to you over something small & because you made a good point, made them feel stupid if you will, and they turn around and calls you a nasty name? What would anger you more, the fact that they called you a nasty name or the fact that they tried to hurt you?

When someone does you harm, is it right to do the same thing in return? No. Naturally, we react in a negative way thinking it’s okay because they did it too. Truth is, you can never get even with someone who has hurt you. Any attempt to do so puts you behind the bad karma mill. “Two wrongs never make a right”. Pretty much, you can’t right a wrong by committing another wrong. Funny how hard it is to live by that simple rule. You may be able to justify your actions politically or socially, but spiritually you will be held accountable for what you do. Why you did it, doesn’t count. I’m an avid believer in karma. Regardless of what someone did to me I refuse to stoop to their level and try to hurt them back. Before I matured, I just knew for a fact that that was the “proper” way to handle things. Obviously, our life works just like a boomerang so whatever you do, the effect of that action will come right back to you. So, while you’re sitting there, watching someone’s miserable insecure ass calling you all types of names to anyone that will listen, or in your face….always remember that they are the ones that are truly hurting inside. They are the ones that owns some sort of envy towards you. The question is, are you going to allow it to happen again by sticking around?

Isn’t it ironic that the people who talk shit about you really have no room in doing so in the first damn place? When did someone with no job, no home of their own, no kids, no car get the nerve to talk shit & try to look down upon someone who has a job, has their own place and has their own car? How can you clown another man for driving a Nissan when you’re pushing a raggedy ass Buick? How dare you call her a slut when you’re not faithful to your own? Why are you claiming Barack Obama is your idol yet you haven’t taken care of your kids in years? Why frown upon Jay-Z & Beyonce taking 5 years to get married….where your marriage license at? When did it become okay to condone domestic violence if the woman is the one throwing punches but it’s not okay if a man beat your ass for hitting him? All your life I never heard you mention a word about God but now that you found out you have a disease you’re in church every Sunday? You’re tired of  “these gold digging bitches” yet you wanna take her shopping on the first date? Time to check that reality and humble yourselves people. Last time I checked, your shit stink too. Maybe even more.

And what about the people that you reject? Whether it’s a man after the first date or a woman that you used to hang out with. You feel rejected? Get over it. It’s as simple as that. Don’t try to insult me nor what I represent just because I didn’t kiss your ass. Maybe the blame should be on your limited way of thinking. Or maybe it’s your lack of reality, education…experiences? I can promise you that the same person that rejected you isn’t paying you no mind anyways. They can careless how you feel or what you say from this point on. If you understand that you can only draw to yourself what you already are, you can see rejection in another light. If your self-esteem was higher, you wouldn’t succumb to having a fit when you’re not the one that they chose. If you worked more on your insecurities, education level, financial stability or sexual morals, you’ll be able to curb those child-like traits that make you perform the stupidity that you do each day due to the rejection.

We all know at least one person who’s guilty of one of these subjects I touched on. Maybe of all these things. The sad thing is, it’ll take years before they realize their wrongdoings. Do like I do and ignore their ignorance (one of my favorite quotes). Eventually they will get over it. Unfortunately, most people don’t and they never will. Because you’re that damn great.
