“Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.”
Aristotle
When do you admit to being irritated by the actions of others? Do you address it immediately or wait and see if their actions continue? I've become passive aggressive to avoid confrontation, but not because i'm a coward, it's because the people who annoy me wouldn't understand why their actions are the cause of my reaction. It's like speaking to a child who can't grasp the concept that they shouldn't be doing what they are doing, and withdrawing my retaliation has become emotionally draining. Why do I have to feel guilty about being upset when I'm the one fixing their mistakes and taking the blame for their lack of action?
I'm unsure about posting this entry because social media has become a mecca of information that is obtainable to anyone. It has bred this universal selfish personality where everyone believes that pouring their heart out wont spawn consequences. This is me being selfish and apparently 'pathetic'.
