#14 Where is your heart?

Hypocrite:
1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, esp. one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

I've been wanting to post such a post for sometime now. I feel so useless because i can't understand 1/2 the things that go on in a day of my life. Sometimes the reason for me being so quiet and what some might call, 'shy' is because i like to observe how the people around me behave. Not that they're committing something wrong but i like to see how their character's like. How they actually treat the people around them. And I've realised so much. So much that i thought its time i share.

Maybe this post is going to be very lopped sided because its honestly just based on a few groups of people. Looking back at the way they behave, i can be brought to tears. Let's just start by saying, i've always been in my comfort zone or rather it has taken me awhile to realise about how the outside world is like. I just love the happy endings between my group of circle that when i was sent to the outside world a season ago, and saw the in justice that can be done to a person. I never imagined humans to have such a character. And i guess the only reason why i felt that way was because i never witnessed such inccidents before, my eyes only witnessed happy circumstances. It was through the inccident of 'gothchick' that i slowly learnt they hey, there are people out there on Earth who are out to harm. Its just by the way they think and look at things and i remember very clearly what MissAmy mentioned, 'You might have not neccesarily done something wrong that they hate you, its just because they just have 'nothing-better-to-do' other than to hate you.

Through that, I began to see things in a different light. I finally knew what the world was like, sometimes (in my heart) i wonder why i was even placed here, what was God's Will on my life? What's my purpose on Earth? Then again, I'm trusting God. I might still be young with a unclear future but I've come to terms with the fact that most humans are two faced, are hypocritical. In other words, we're hypocrites. We speak one thing, we do another. Our words don't match our actions. And before i carry on, I'm not saying i'm not guilty of any of these. I understand its human nature to do things this way. But, i can say one thing. I control myself. I know where to draw the line and i think before i speak, most of the time. That's the difference. So if you happen to read this, don't say, 'Oh you're just a Saint and that's how Saints should behave, NO!' I'm not trying to say that. I just want to pen down my thoughts and feeling about this whole issue of 'two-facedness' because i think it has crossed the limits. I've observed it long enough.

Call yourself a Christian or rather a person running after God's heart, but take a look at your actions instead. To gain a friendship, you curse/swear and gossip (all your teeth can even fall) all through lessons, do you give a thought about what the people around you would think of you and your actions? Is this called, being a role model for Christ? First, you snatch my closest friend away, then my clique, you leave me speechless but i'm silent. Thoughts are springing from the whithin, wanting to spill it out, but no. I'll never do that. For life, I'll live with a regret that i never have the courage to tell people how i feel about them, have no courage to tell them to stop what they're doing, have no courage to tell them them, 'hey look at what you've made things like. I never have the courage to do so and i result to bottling everything up. Keep doing that, over and over again, and what happens when i can't take it any longer? Breakdown.

I don't like the way you do things, how you spend your time gossiping about teachers just to gain a friendship from a lost friend, what wrong has the teacher done that you have to speak so poorly of her? Why do you have to curse/swear at everthing about her? Why be so heartless when the teacher cares about you, so much? Where's the basic respect for a teacher or someone older than you? If you probably read this you'll go, 'Ya lah, Teacher's pet'. I'm sure, but i really feel so disturbed because i respect the teacher. And i feel, you should have the basic respect for her and not treat a teacher like that. If that's someone your age, it doesn't matter as much. But you don't seem to care at all. You think its so cool to speak like that to higher authorities? What are you trying to achieve? 'Do unto others what you want others to do unto you.' , 'Speak unto others what you want others to speak unto you.' Its the same principle behind.

I'll be praying, for a change. No one can open your eyes to see things that you choose not to see, except Him. Only He can intervene and cause a change in you. The day would soon come when your eyes would see the flaws of yourself. I somehow, can't for that day. Its time for you to change, Vivien. I care for you, that's why i've even taken this time to share with you what i feel.

Don't you see the link? What has happened to me awhile ago and how MissAmy has taught me to see through those circumstances and now, when it happens to a different individual i know how to react. I know how they feel and I understand why they feel that way. I see the same things common. Its a time again, when i can never thank Miss Amy enough. Where would I be, if that sense wasn't knocked into me?
