Killing what's inside with words
So recently I saw a post on facebook that sparked anger within me. The type of post that was made to belittle individuals if they did not meet the same standards as yours thus insinuating that they are below you. People like that need to get off of their high horses and realize that just because something unexpected happened to someone which led them to perhaps not performing as well as they could in life does NOT mean that they don't deserve respect or that they should be criticized because of it! Everyone has their own stories and their own reasons and just because they choose not to share those reasons with you does not give you the right to go ahead and assume. These people need to understand that they have been fortunate enough to bypass hardships in life while those they claim as being, 'below them', haven't. Said people make me pity the society that we live in because judgments, labels, assumptions and rumors can literally destroy all sense of an individual's self-esteem, self-confidence and simply the way they look at their own lives. It's sad to see people being targeted because others don't understand nor do they take the time to do so and what makes me sick is that some encourage this sort of behavior and deem it as being acceptable.
