“Demon to some, Angel to others” meaning be hateful to those who deserve your hate.
Hate them wholly and completely with your whole heart. (damn that is redundant huh?)
but also do the same with love… Love those who deserve your love, Give your love to
them wholly and completely as well. You CANNOT have hate without love and love
without hate. (I KNOW I said I wouldn’t inject my life philosophy into any of your posts,
but I deem it especially important here) On a foodie note, that dish looks yummy!
I really like gnocchi (yay for having Italian future in-laws)

I usually read your posts/displayed comments before commenting myself but after
reading this entries title, I had to write this down before I forget. I used to know all
too well the power and pain of words (experienced it from my stepmother constantly)
I even wrote a poem in high school (that got featured in our literary magazine!) but s
sadly I can’t remember the title, but it was about my stepmother.
I do remember my alias/pen name though. It was “NightAngel”.
*rolls her eyes at the thought of the name/all her teenage angst now* LOL
/begin rant
It’s funny now, but sure as hell wasn’t funny then.
That bitch made me suffer SO much.
/end rant ^_^

Turn the tables.

Put yourself on the other side.

What would you say if these words were directed to you in a similiar situation.

It may not always help when you are in a real bad mood, but often it will make you pause, reread and rewrite.

But it is how it is, people are in a corner of their heart assholes to someone else.

Something you say, no matter how good thought out may lead to a melt down..sometimes the best intentions turn sour because you can not know everything and anything about a person when you write or talk.

No one knows a person completly, not even you know yourself completly…thre will alwys be something new, something forgotten…something that may give you and others problems.

And that is when you just have to accept it, to take your best intentions and go on and make it better next time.

And if it happens to yourself and you feel hurt and offendend and puzzled..turn the table..what was meant, can you learn something out of it?

People kill many ways..with words, with their habits…buying cheap clothes which were done by slave workers, eating factory farmed meat which kills small scale farm with better tasting animals..because people are just cheapskates today. Driving to fast and killing a beloved pet from someone else and killing the owner emotionally.

You could worry yourself crazy with all that stuff, but you can just try to do your best and ask yourself…can I do that and that and still be comfortable with myself?

Or will I hate myself after days or weeks when I have said and done something..or can I make it better next time?

When you stumble into a dumb situation you learn to avoid other bad situations..if you burned yourself once on a lighter, you will be carefuller next time.

I find that the things that are not as pretty on camera, or even just on my stove…are generally the best tasting dishes…

You still make me laugh…and say what you will!

Wow, how neat seeing a picture of you ^_^ You look so pretty! It’s so cute, your face looks like it’s thinking ‘What the hell is that camera doing here?’ lol.

I definatly feel ya with the tape over the mouth thing. Some of my posts are very in line with the murderer thing, especially as of late. :p But then again, I am also a believer in a good healthy rant and getting things off of your chest. Most likely the reason why I make so many jokes and try and inject humor into things. That way you tell the other party how you feel, but they’re laughing with you and no one gets hurt.

The tongue is powerful isn’t it? Wicked too. We just studied James 3 in church today. Taming the tongue should be a goal for us all, but tape would be easier.

I think we’re all guilty of doing the same thing you did. It’s human nature. I think it’s nice to have a blog or a journal though because it affords you the ability to reflect.

I think I’ve gotten pretty good at not speaking when mad (unless it’s really really late at night, and then I can make a complete jerk out of myself).

When it’s NOT 2:00am, if I want to open my mouth when angry I remember a great quote:

“Speak when angry and you’ll make the best speech you’ll ever regret”

My problem is bottling things up, then sneaking off and plotting my vengeance. Planning exact words for their effect, in voice or on paper.

Until something hits me just right and I turn into a raging ball of hobo-hating fire.

I guess I can easily keep my mouth shut because I hate sounding stupid. Chances are if I’m distressed I’m going to say something stupid. So I just don’t say anything.

I think I’m the opposite way. I usually don’t think of a great come back until waayyyy after the fact. It takes me a long time to formulate my feelings on a topic. Sometimes I don’t speak words of encouragement because I’m too shy. I think I suffer from a “not speaking when I should” mentality.
