Ok, I know that hardly anyone reads xanga, but this post is a post that I hope a lot of people read. As of late, I'm sure that everyone at Ready has been aware of this "drama" going around. Myself, I like to stay out of shit like that, because it's dumb, counterproductive, and a big waste of time and energy. I hope everyone still agrees with me thusfar. I pray to God that when some certain people leave Ready, they leave with maturity. The reason I pray for this is because these people have none at the time being. That scares me. When I say maturity, I mean logical, reasonable, common sense. Let me explain: I firmly believe that the biggest cause of most fights is a severe breakdown in the lines of communication. If something or someone is bothering you, you should confront it/them. Make sure you do this in a mature manner. For the sake of my argument (and to better identify with what's going on at Ready right now), let's say that one of your best friends is bothering you. The best thing you can do is sit them down and have a heartfelt, face to face conversation with them. No yelling, no name calling, no accusing. And for God's sake, have an open mind. This ten minute conversation will save weeks of stress, anger, and frustration. Trust me. After you have this calm communication session with this friend, let's say you both decide that it'd be better to no longer be friends. Now that's where it stops. Neither party should say a word about the other after that. Communicate, kids. Don't play telephone with your friends. Don't drag your friends into this. If you have a problem with someone, that problem is between you and that person ONLY! It pisses the hell out of me when I see people trying to get neutral persons on their side for something. What good is that going to accomplish? You have more people on your side than your enemy, so now what? Nothing! How insecure do you have to be to do bullshit like that? Seriously. Guess what else I've observed in these past few weeks? Getting people "on your side" is only going to cause more trouble. Now look what you've done. Now you have people who want to stay out of it, but by doing that, it seems to you that they are not your friend because they aren't supporting you. Oh, look what else! Now the people dumb enough to take your side hate your "enemies" too for no good reason. Also, now anyone who is a friend to this "enemy" of yours is hated too, and they have absolutely nothing to do with it. You say you hate all this drama. Well, I say you should shut the hell up, because if you would have kept your mouth shut, this crap wouldn't have happened. Or maybe if you wouldn't have been a coward and talked face to face with whoever's bothering you, this shit wouldn't have gone as far as it did. It is your fault as much as it is anyone else's who has done the same thing as you. I have one last thing to say. When you publicly call people out on the internet and post long ass rants about them, using their names, I can't help but lose all respect for you. Where do you get off? It utterly baffles me. What the hell are you going to do in the real world every time one person makes you angry? Make a blog post about them for everyone to read? I don't want to read that one-sided propaganda bullcrap. Stop your goddamn fighting. Stop dragging friends into it. Don't bring it to school, and for God's sake don't bring it on the internet. Grow up. Get a life. Communicate. Learn to respect. Thank you. P.S. You know your bullshit's bad when you make ME make a long ass post about it. |
