Think Out Loud.
This is a weekly meme used for bloggers
to post something they would normally not post.
So, post whatever YOU want!
Indifference
I like this word. As do I like being indifferent. Not caring what people think of you, not caring in general. It seems like a good way to go about things and dealing with people or you know annoying people. A good way to stay sane. There are always annoying people out there. Just genuine unpleasant people. Who will criticize you, judge you and who will just make your life miserable. so why care?
Isn't it saver to be neutral?
But it's not always easy to simple not care. Harsh words spoken by strangers haunt you. They stay with you and jump to the front of your mind and ruin your appetite. so it can't be simple to choose to be indifferent.
Even if you do succeed in this ,there' will (always) be a small number of people who you do care about. Who's opinion matter. And if anybody has the right to say something unpleasant but truthful, shouldn't it be the people who matter?
Or is it all just another incomprehensible paradox.
But remember
We must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men.
Unless you want them at your door
Deep stuff here. I would say I have become indifferent in my older age. It is like part of the armor we use to deflect negativity and bullshit. Or in my case anyways... Great post!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Not sure I want them at my door... But what a lovely post. I think we all kind of become a bit more indifferent with time... but, yes, only those who really matter should have the right to say certain things to our faces.
