Go Along to Get Along

Some things that are considered good manners- frankly, make no logical sense. See, we have to suppress our emotions, so we won't be "rude".... that's what's being asked of us when we're EXPECTED to speak to or greet anyone & EVERYone.  I have to SNAP OUT OF IT, be happy, say hello & make "small" talk. 


What am I, a robot?


Never mind I may not like the person, never mind, one of these people may turn around & talk about me behind my back or is judging me. We all have to be nice (not kind) & happy. You don't have to be a truly good person, you just have to have the "good manners'' to speak. Ever notice many of those so willing to speak to everyone- love to gossip about everyone & stare at you with their evil, judgmental eyes.... Now, THAT's bad manners!




Keep in mind, in this society, we're really not even allowed to be sad or express angst. Suppressing our emotions is the order of the day...reminds me of my family, they want me to SUPPRESS my anger,

even though they're the cause of so much of it. Some of my so-called family members will walk into a room, say some hurtful crap to me, then act like I'm the problem for getting angry or not wanting to be bothered with them. Sometimes I wonder if I'm related to narcissists with no conscience.






Well, I would rather be alone with my truth then constantly engaging with FAKE hypocrites.  Or neighborhood assholes who gossip.
