This is partly a vent and something else. Just was thinking about this earlier when I was getting myself some ice cream. <br><br>Call me weird but I felt like writing:<br><br> A dark cloud hovered ominously over your head. It's an incessant storm that rages until its rain turns to demons; the thunder their roar. You ball your hands into a fist, digging your nails into your palm. Longing eyes sweep over your peers as you assess the jubilation emitting from them. You wish to obtain it. <br> Wandering the crowded halls you're all alone. No one could possibly feel like you. You're defective, like a broken toy only to be returned. Depression hangs onto you like a lost friend. Nothing you do could ever be good enough. <span style="font-style:italic">Why?</span> Your question resonates in whispers flitting around your thoughts.<br> The coals that had laid dormant start to stir. A single flame catches and ignites your passion. The injustice of it all! You clench your teeth as you try to contain the temptations that the sudden rage presents. All of youre best attempts had been youre truest. Your punishment is clearly upon the wrong being, for you've done nothing wrong. It was because of them you're in this state. Yes it was them! How unfitting this has become! Your plans unfold as the scapegoat has been assigned a name. <br>Oh if only your perspective lens were wider!<br>You would have the revenge on anyone in your grasp. How vexed you are. Oh the very thought of the deed that had been done onto you. That accoursed fiend who took away your cell phone will fall to their knees in forgiveness under your piercing glare.<br><br>*coughs* Ok I hope you know I was poking fun there. Anyways, to my point!<br><br>Is it ever your fault? When I see other people vent or rant I never hear that part of it was because of them. It's that, or they say, "I can't believe he overreacted like that! It's not like I was hurting anyone!" or something to that extent.<br><br>I know I don't like to admit being wrong (I'm sure most feel the same), but there is a time where you need to just stop and think about it. If I know I was partly wrong, I dont parade my complaints infront of people. <br><br>I believe that if you are unhappy or are punished, it is because of your own self. I mainly mean little things like the example of getting your phone taken away. It's amazing to me how defiant some people get when it comes to what they did. I know my sister, when she gets in trouble, thinks she can kill people by glaring at them long enough <br><br>Another example is in my accounting class. It's mainly seniors and juniors in there. Even at adult age, they can be pretty insolent. This girl shows disrespect and sneers as she leaves the classroom. My thoughts are that she thinks she's all powerful because she acts like that to her superior (meaning the teacher). I wonder if she realizes how petty, childish, and foolish she looks. With my experience, when something like that happens with a student and teacher, the student tends to retell the story to make her seem almost like a hero for keeping the old grumpster at bay.<br><br>It just amuses me how many people whine and complain about things they cause and then expect others to be sympthetic. If you're going to complain about grades, how's about you stop with the nonsense and study? Oh your mom is was being unreasonable and grounded you? What'd you do this time? Nothing you say? *gasp* Cruel woman! Let's burn her at the stake!<br><br>Anyways I'm done. It's not too much of a vent like I said. I'd defanitely like to hear opinions on this. Do you believe a lot of people cause their own unhappiness? Further more, do they seem to cause their own troubles along with trying to place it on anyone but them? <br><br>Things are taken too far. People exaggerate little things as being the end of their life. I mean, if that's how you feel, you obviously have no life because its being controlled by objects and other people. Are objects like computers and phones worth your life? <br><br>I can never seem to get my point across well, but I hope someone at least understands. xD And do note that I take this in light tone.
