theres a teeny weeny spider crawling around the monitor screen as i type. i'm too lazy to kill it.
great, i just got home at 11. spent way too much time at the parents combined cell group gathering thing with acp, by no fault of mine of course. you know how some discussions can drag on, and that's exactly what happened. kinda regretted saying that i would go along, but on the flipside, i realised something about myself i knew before but have just come to light in the "brightest of light" way.
that is, whenever these discussions of sorts come along, i find myself just listening. and i found out that this is actually a result of parental influence. my parents are like that too. my mind isn't switched off, infact, it's working at a higher capacity. so people air their opinions, air their grievances, and i listen, forming my own mini counter arguments in my head. and i wouldn't say anything at all, because i would much rather come home, carefully think through and form proper joint thoughts if the brain permits. everyone has their individual opinions and sometimes i find it really pointless to get into an argument, or even worse, a heated one, just because you have to voice opinions out loud. unless it comes to a resolution or improvement, why debate over such issues? note that this only applies to the case where it gets heated and voicing of opinions become argumentative instead of merely airing and trying to resolve certain matters. and that didn't happen just now, it's just that i'm taking this a little futher, talking about heated arguments.
not going to type everything down here because i would ,more likely, refer back to a written piece instead of to a data log or archive. so there, i'm going to pen them down, the orthodox way. :)
