....that I have 0 tolerance for those who take advantage of me or someone else. Be it my seniors, my colleagues, my friends or a stranger. I just can't keep quiet and watch them do it. It keeps nagging within me to tell the person off.
Did you know there are people who actually enjoy taking advantage of others, they actually justify their acts by making statements like "oh she can afford to" or, "oh she has the time", or "oh she WILL enjoy doing it anyway". This attitude gets on my nerves, in my nerves and around my nerves.
To be frank, very rarely have people got away with acting that way with me. I am more adamant than a mule when it comes to justice. I wont barge an inch. I NEVER take advantage of a person or a situation, and therefore I feel all others around me should be the same. It drives me crazy to see otherwise. I am not being pompous when I say I am not that kind of a person. I may have a lot of weaknesses in me but this is definitely not one of them. Even when I ask a person for a favor, I make sure I somehow make up for it or do my bit in making that person feel good.
A friend of mine suggested that I butt out of things that do not concern me. I am trying to work around that. This world is such a strange place to be. You look around and you see so much of disappointments around you. No one really cares for your well being, no one is truly happy for you when you do good. You cannot count on anyone to be truly happy for you except your immediate family. Its a strange world out there.
I have a lot to change in me. I do not know where to start. Staying out of other people's cares and concerns should be one of them. My wish is to go into a shell. Be a quieter person. Be a non-interfering person especially when it comes to matters of others. Be calm and composed even when the world around me is falling apart. Can I be that person? I will blog a few months later to see if there has been any changes in me since I did this blog.

you sound very bitter...take a deep breath and don't stop helping people. be good even to your enemies...stop being overly critical of others...learn to appreciate the good in those around you...be more self aware and everything will fall in place, focus on changing yourself for the better first..you will then see a dramatic change in the people around you..change should start with you, think hard before you react, practice what you preach and you will have the world as your oyster. as an example many quote from the bible but don't practice anything. don't preach, just be good to the people around you, your family your friends and to those you were once close to...make amends and you will feel so much better about yourself. try it, it does work. it worked for me. remember we are only human and mortal. trust is earned and should not be demanded. the people around you should feel that they can trust you completely. hope this helps you in your healing process.
hmm.....ur comments! What does it say about you, who without a batter has judged me and my ways yet signs off as anonymous! Well that speaks volumes. I quote
"stop being overly critical of others...learn to appreciate the good in those around you...be more self aware and everything will fall in place, focus on changing yourself for the better first".
You have even picked the bible. What a joke. You judge me yet have come to read my blog!! hmmm.
You sound like you are on a mission to lecture.......things that have no reference to my article!!
You NEED help, trust me!
To Regina: Well said ....words taken out of my mouth!!
To Anonymous: The bible also states to remove the log from your eyes before you try to point at the splinter in some else’s. Regina's lines did not sound bitter in fact she sounded genuine about her feelings which cant be said for most of us.
this is anonymous again, no one judges you except for the one up above. he judges us all. you seem angry angry, calm down and take a deep breath. everyone has good and bad just focus on you than other people. think with a clear mind and i tell you all will fall in place darling. we all need help you are not alone.a blog is for everybody to read isn't it? that is why you started a blog? i'm trying to help you because for so long i have heard from you so many complains about all your friends and relatives. try to appreciate the people around you. don't be so angry and criticize all the time. what you sow, you will reap. and i did not pick the bible i only gave you example of people who do that. read again.
Sara: that is exactly what I am trying to explain to your friend. I know who Regina was talking about. Don't asume when you don't know what I am talking about because Regina knows!
Anonymous, get a life! seriously!
Why should Regina live her life to your own standards of perfection?
Who are you to judge her and tell her how she should live her life? and if you really think you're not judging her then listen.. take your own advice and stop being critical of Regina! Learn to appreciate her for the good traits that she has (and knowing her for years now, she has alot!) be more self aware of yourself and stop being NEGATIVE AND JEALOUS, YOU'RE PATHETIC :)
This blog is for sharing her random thoughts whether postive or negative. You don't have to agree with her but there's a respectful way of expressing your opinions! So you either lighten up and enjoy the blog or go do something useful with your life :)
Oh and please don't come back unless you get over yourself :)
ONE FINAL THOUGHT.. REGINA NEVER CHANGE!YOU ROCK!
