wat's the deal with rejection?
i initially wanted to post alot of the thoughts that ran through my head these few days... insightful thoughts... but cuz i'm tired i'm gonna compress them into one line summaries for each one. the insightful ones are bolded like
this three words.
1. rejection is painful and although one may be good at hiding the pain, it doesn't mean that one doesn't feel it.
2. rejection causes one to think of stupid stuff (NOT SUICIDE in case anyone gets the wrong idea) like the things u hate about urself and this is aggravated by being in the presence of people who have the traits one desires.
3. rejection usually causes more pain than it should cuz of hopes being shattered and plans for the future being utterly destroyed.
4. rejection and the feelings that follow it are often amplified in the presence of people who remind u of the rejection.
5. rejection humbles u and definitely deflates ur ego, no matter whose it might be.
6. rejection is made worse if there is no one whom u think can really be your support in those situations(sad though it appears).
7. rejection is bad enough and you dun have to read romance novels or listen to sad/love songs to make it even more terrible.
8. rejection often makes one ask 'why?'9. rejection usually leads to self pity which can be addictive.10. rejection by one person is bad enough... imagine what GOD has to go through each day...sidetracking...
"Are you WEAK enough to be like JESUS?"
Yes... weak and not strong... curious no? In one of the articles i read in the Catholic news quite a few weeks ago by a certain Father Ronald Rolheiser (his articles are terribly insightful)... he referred to that question.
i'm really tired and so... i'll continue about tt article another day... tmr's cjc's prom btw.
