Bullying

[jakechirak]

I admit it:
I already bullied people in my life.
I was young, and being part of a group against ONE person felt so good.
Everyone wants to be part of something, nobody wants to be left alone, even if it means stomping someone else. Most bullying groups have a guru, and most of the time it's always someone who's older (and is either desperately jealous, or just self hating)
The thing with bullies is: they will turn against you. You cannot trust them. You might laugh at other people's cringeness, but they will laugh at your own.

Now, that's being said, I grew up. The more I meet people, the more I accept them. But also the less I can't stand bullies and manipulators. The more I can sense when someone is off. I'm not scared anymore, I don't have any skeletons in my closets, but all of them do.

Maybe it's divine karma, but I got bullied.


And you know what? Now, I don't care. I have enough good people around me to feel safe. I have enough projects to be busy, I have enough media to consume to open my mind. I'm not scared.
Not anymore.
Yes I had bad destructive thoughts but now they're gone.
I'm happy, productive and friends around me I trust. Do they trust each other? Certainly not.
Maybe i'm naive but I hope people will find the help they need and start to respect other human beings, because, you know, you never really know who you're talking to?

To live and let live...
