Can we pretty please retire the phrase "oh, that didn't hurt"? Pain is inherently subjective, meaning no one can feel or measure the severity of pain except the person who is experiencing it. It is completely and utterly ridiculous to claim the right to tell others what they do and do not feel.

I didn’t drop one of my scoops of ice cream damnit!

I was thinking about some of the things people have said to me over the years when hearing about my loss... the one that sticks out the most is “ at least you have two beautiful daughters”. Yes I do and I am not ungrateful but you wouldn’t say that under any other circumstances where there was a loss. I am so sorry you lost your (insert reference) but look at all of the other people in your life that aren’t dead. It isn’t a trade. I realize sorrow is awkward and ugly crying can make people uncomfortable but it wasn’t a trade and I don’t need anyone to point out that maybe I am missing the beauty in what I have or that I forgot to be thankful that at least most of my children lived. It isn’t like dropping one of your scoops of ice cream and being relieved you still have another flavor.  I feel all of those things; grateful and blessed beyond measure for my daughters lives but pain and sorrow have their own occupancy.

This girl I know goes to university and majors in some god knows what and apparently calls herself a "grammar nazi".. She makes jokes/ fun of people no matter who and what they are. This girl will find every way to say some thing about someone . In this particular incident she decided to target people who in her eyes did not speak proper English or used "proper" hammer .She laughs thinking the things she says is funny. I had a conversation with her where she pointed out a joke Someone had made being hurtful. And then when I had brought how she's rude and makes fun of people is also hurtful and a form of bullying... She tried justifying that targeting someone's physical appearance and how they speak is very different! ..... Are u serious? And your apparently the smarter one? Bullying is bullying !! Whether it is emotional or physical it's hurtful!! If your constantly targeting someone's insecurities and flaws or whatever it may be , is hurtful, disrespectful and PLAIN RUDE! What gives her the right to do that to others? But others cannot to dare say anything about her? Treat others how you want to be treated!! Plain and simple . Respect others because you don't know their story, and where they come from. While you were in school learning about adverbs and nouns someone else was worrying about keeping a roof over their head, or figuring out if they'll have enough money to buy a meal. Be thankful that you had parents that took care of you, and your only responsibility was to go to school. So before you judge someone, remember that not everyone lived the life or had the opportunities that someone else had . Walk in their shoes, experience their struggle and pain before you decide to pass on a judgement!
