We don't need criticism, Just a little light.

It might be weird that I find the less-accepted ruder part of the society to be ahead of the curve. But here me out, It’s for that group of people who are going on and on in that straight paved path of theirs carved out my someone else. You need it.

That path where everything is just too uniformly boring. A majority of us push through that same routine, that extremely boring schedule. Just our ways of a slow death.
That stress takes a toll on you, slowly inching up behind you like a predator slowly inching towards its prey without its knowing, ready to unleash upon it when it least expects it. That’s what stress does to us. Or rather what we have let it do to us.
In this already treacherous path of ours, do we really need those critiques? Those rude-comments when all we desire is a path of survival in this constant daily beat-up, namely; life. Everyone is a wreckage train one way or the other, a train going on an unsteady track, struggling to keep itself in place but somehow maintaining balance. But that doesn’t stop it from letting things fall outside whilst it lay on that unsteady track. That’s where its picked upon, or rather where we are picked upon. Different things have fallen during different times. It depends on what you pick. Its for us about what we desire to pick. I don’t really believe those cliche liners where you learn and do things at the same time. Its a myth. Different things need approaches.

Different things have fallen off, if you try to pick them all up, you’ll end up confused with nothing in hand. You just gotta do what you believe in doing. Because no matter what you do, they’ll always be someone telling you what you should’ve done rather than what you should do now. There’ll always be critics.They all critique the past because its easy pointing out the mistakes due to which you suffered.They might come off to you as rude. And well you know you have options, other than letting this bounce around in your head. If you’re facing criticism listen to it only if it’s constructive, if it’s not then discard it. You’ve probably got things you want to accomplish in life. Resolve the things as best you can and learn to accept that some people are gonna be straight up dicks about things here n there.
No one really, is pointing out what you’re doing now because they’d like to see you try. And then pick on you later. And now this, is the majority of our society. The “supposed know how’s”.
But let me shed a little light on the more hated but never discussed part of our daily so called rendezvous.The ones who we call rude. I do feel like sometimes we ignore the cutthroat practicality of such comments one makes back just because it doesn’t sound very appealing to us. And no, I’m not talking about those mean-ass people who might be doing it on purpose in the hopes that they can make you feel insecure about yourself, perhaps they might have an inflated sense of entitlement by doing it. But no, I’m not talking about them. I’m talking about that sarcastically constructive person we might find bouncing around here and there.
But when I think of it, Are those rude comments even incorrect in this reality where everyone is trying to crush another. What they give to us, is just a lil insight. A drop of the ocean, the deeper you think of it, they’re just ahead of the fast twitching tides, and in someway try to minimize casualties by throwing these weird looking lifelines to these wood-headed people who will soon be drowned by the waves of distress.
