People do not know what to say to others. Speaking without thinking.

I am sadly have to say in this day and time, people are so stressed concerning bills, daycare, trying to keep a family in order that they do not realized being stressed, can make you say things you do not mean and sometimes. Leaving messages on your answering machine or saying something in front of the wrong person can get the wrong kind of situations started. I am from Philadelphia also has been known as Killadelphia because of the murder rate here. This comes from stress and people have no idea what another people is going through so they take it for granted that they are the only one struggling with an issue.

This is an ongoing battle with people in today’s society and its always going to be an issue, when your around people you have to learn how to vent “meaning talking about whats on your mind” and I am not say you have to blurt out everything that comes to your head but watch and think about what your going to say before you say it. This can save a friendships or relationships or keeping family members together some people just think because they have a degree this gives them the degree in personality and sometimes it makes them a better person but sometimes it creates arrogance. People sometimes get the swagger that because they have money or they have good credit this makes it okay for you to say rude things to people or having control over people by limiting them in conversation saying remarks that are rude to others, this makes you look like a foolish person even with your degree or your money whatever makes you successful in reality. But people are afraid to really say what they think of you because they are worried that they might need you one day so they tolerate your nasty ways.

But if this shoe should become on the other foot what do you think people will really say to you, they probably will not waste a minute even, rolling down the window to say hello because they know your a mean person at heart. This is called many names, we care not to say in public because it makes you become a mean person as well. This is caused from the hurt you do not realise when you treat people with the rest that you would want someone to treat you with this is just the way life should be, do not say to them you need to do something when your life is not perfect either, or if your known to have your screw ups in the past and you think because someone did a bad move in there life that’s there mistake and I am sure they will learn from it. Your not god and you need to just worry about your own problems and watch how to portray your words when talking to people because someone can can your words and react on them in this day and time.

People get hurt over the smallest situations and sometimes its because they said something in the wrong manner,  and the person took it the wrong way and this happens on the job all the time. When people use racist words, or as example “George W. Bush making a joke about brown rice to Condoleezza Rice” for one last time at the white house.

These things happen not funny but it was something to think about people are not cautious at all when it comes to knowing what to say out of there mouths. Hopefully one day this will change and we as people will take into consideration of other peoples feelings. Some people get very cocky about what they want to say and this is what makes matters a lot harder for anyone to deal with you, so keep it in mind if your reading this you are told by people over and over that your not right take some time to think about it one day. Try not to get mad about the matter and try to look at this like a stepping stone. No likes a wise guy or girl for that matter.

    Bravo! Words can be explosive and harm just as bad as bomb
    Sometimes anger is vented due to health conditions…when a person isn’t well…words they normally would not utter gets spoken…This where understanding and forgiveness steps in.

  • Leonardo da Vinci E. on Sep 9, 2009

    Some people have a screen and filter in their heads which controls what they say so that the results are positive…and some people don’t.

    Sounds like a fishy situation to me.

    Perhaps 10lbs of salmon might help?

  • Enigma on May 5, 2010

    I like this article…I really like people that blog speaking their minds.
    good point of views.
    Im the straight-forward type person, probable cause of the people around me are in the same nature and how I grew up.
    Right now im working with a lot of kids as part of my job, and I learned how to limit and watch what I say to them since we never know how it may approach them.
