Critical ass
Aug. 11th, 2003 08:59 pmI do believe the planets were aligned, as after hundreds of clicks of the 'Random' link, my own journal came up.
So, riddle me this. If a friend of yours does something rude/selfish/to hurt your feelings (but unintentionally), do you point it out to them or let it slide? I'm having issues with our cultural avoidance of helping people become better people. I just can't help but think that if I did something to someone else, I would want to know about it so I could correct it.
As always, I think I overthink things too much. Sometimes it feels that I'm trying to live somewhere in the middle of sell-out and success. Ideals shouldn't be on a sliding scale.
I still want to take a vow of silence.
