Shhhhh

Sometimes I juz feel like I'm a scaredy cat. I mean, this is my blog and of course, I'm free to say anything, especially when emotions swell at that moment, I would use more emotional and intese words that aptly describes my feelings at that split second. However, when time pass, I'm afraid that the person(s) involved would be upset or angry, and I would meekly delete part of my blog.


This happened when I was still in contact with my ex. His then girlfriend kicked up a big fuss about my blog mentioning him, so I went through all the entries from Day 1 and deleted all those with his name.
Was feeling really frustrated at work once and blogged about but took down that post cos one of my closer colleague mentioned that it may reflect badly on me if my boss chance upon it.
Also when someone mentioned that she felt hurt and angry by my post, I deleted the part of the post almost immediately and even subtly apologize in a later post.


Now, I'm also editing my previous post because there might be a high chance that the persons involved will read my blog. I mean, the emotions and feelings are very real for that moment, but now, we're still great friends. So I dun want the previous emotions to jeopardise our friendship!


So there's really no liberty in speech over here? Where is the channel where I can freely express my thoughts and not having to suffer from repercussions? I guess this does not exist in the real world. Once we mature and become adults, we are liable for everything we say. Even the slightest comment may cause us to lose our jobs or be sued for slander (this happened in another story related by my ex-colleague)! I guess that's the sad reality of life...


~Something totally random~

Even the most unlikely characters can become friends, if you would just open your heart and accept...
