How do people write their feelings on a piece of paper? It’s almost impossible to express annoyance or aggravation on one topic in a five hundred word essay. But for some reason some people try to do it, few succeed, and then other people recommend that other people let loose on paper. Or some people just don’t have a life, and release their feelings on a blog they created so that people in general would take the time to actually read the pointless rants that they posted. And then the creator of the blog would use their friend as inspiration for one of their rants that they could put on their blog. Oh wait, and then ask them to copy and paste the rant onto their “facebook,” during a study, which is what the rant was about in the first place. Hypocritical much?
Another thing that bothers me…When people complain that someone they know is being hypocrites. Get with the twenty-first century! Everyone is a hypocrite today. Everyone complains about people taking pictures of themselves, or people having myspaces, or facebooks, or disrespecting a friend, or cheating on a boyfriend or girlfriend. When in all actuality, EVERYONE does these things, even if they just complained about someone doing it the day before, or the week before, or even the hour before. Well, maybe not everyone cheats on their boyfriends and/or girlfriends but that’s just another example to prove my point. Honestly I used my friend as inspiration for this rant, even though I complained about him using me as inspiration for a rant he did about facebook.
People in general are backstabbing. They go back on their word, and not everyone can be trusted. Then people are surprised when someone doesn’t trust them. They maybe the most innocent person in the school, or building, or wherever, but there will always be someone that doesn’t trust them for some reason or another. That’s how rumors start. Some random person will over hear something, and just tell one or two other people, without confirming it with the person that originally said it, and then the lie is spread in a matter of seconds. Someone tells three of their friends, and the three of their friends tell three of their friends and so on and so forth. The result is an exponential growth of the rumor. Eventually it will get back to the person the rumor was originally about and then everything goes from bad to worse. Since people have a hard time believing something different from what they already heard, the rumor has already affected that person’s reputation. Bad reputations are hard to turn back into good reputations. Usually to gain a good reputation back a person needs to have the trust of others, which they didn’t have in the first place.
Now that I’ve gotten that out of my system, lets get back to the question how can someone write their feelings in a five hundred word rant? Or, not only that, how can someone pick a topic to write a five hundred word rant on? Honestly there are so many topics to choose from. Such as people pulling down a driveway that clearly says “Private Driveway Keep Out” on the sign, or how all teachers seem to assign big projects at the same time, or how the union tells teachers that they can’t stay after school to help students pass a class, or in this case about how stupid writing a person’s feelings down on paper can be. No matter the person, when told to write their feelings down on paper, they are going to veer off topic, because it’s what they are feeling at the time. Even though someone once said that a person is supposed to release their emotions in some way, I think they should avoid writing it down. They might as well stand in front of an audience and just tell everyone. Because after something is written down it is viable for anyone to read it, anyone can get their hands on it, and then the secretive emotions of that person, that didn’t want to express them in the first place, are being exposed to the world, because someone suggested they write down their feelings toward someone or something. And if it was a strongly worded paper that was targeted at someone, it could cause something very bad to happen, rather than the slim chance that something good could come from it. If it was a love note about someone, then it could start a relationship, unless that person was married, or had a steady girlfriend or boyfriend. But usually people express their feelings of hate or disgust about a person or group of people. If paper was found by the wrong person it could start fights, arguments, or even a riot would be possible.
So whoever said it was good to release feelings on a piece of paper, or even to a psychiatrist I completely disagree. Think about it, psychiatrists have a clip board, and sometimes even a tape recorder to playback and remind themselves about what the conversation they had had was about. But also that tape still exists so anyone can get a hold of it. Don’t get me wrong it’s good to let feelings out, but make sure it’s done in the right manner. Like to a respectable person or someone that can be slightly trusted; not to a complete stranger that someone (that may not be a person worth any trust) suggested, or written out on a piece of paper that anyone could find or come across on by accident.
