Waterproof Mascara


Inhale. Exhale. I obviously don't see the point. What. When you said rebellion is when questions are being raised. I thought questions were raised for answers. Simple as that. I asked (politely as I always do, careful to deliver my thoughts in a humble tone) because I wanted to understand not because I wanted to challenge authority. It is frustrating that it is always anticipated with false assumptions. (False assumptions, when you yourself have taught us to not rely on false assumptions because it will only mislead you.) Assumptions that we are deliberately doing so just to test power boundaries. Last time i checked, I was not an activist. Maybe there are people who does that but that is not the case with us. And it made me cry to be so helplessly misunderstood, not because i did not have opportunity to clear the issue but because we were not given the right to. You told me that me crying will make me a better person. That when you are being grilled in your own office we do not see you cry GAAAADDDHHH. That is too stereotyped. This is not even about you grilling our asses. I can take the heat but what i cannot take is bullshit. Crying doesnt mean you are letting down or that you are a sunken ship in the middle of nowhere. I am a person capable of crying, with lacrimal ducts capable of producing tears, who cries when the low blow is too much.

You have always reacted as if a dictator always too defensive of his power. Always demanding for more respect when it is already there. You want to hit us with your iron fist and manipulate us to believe that your smile is saying HI WHAT IS YOUR CONCERN I AM STILL YOUR FRIEND. It is too conflicting.

You want us to understand that you are in a tough position. You give orders and people need to follow them but most them doesn't want to. But why do you drag the people who do follow the orders in your anger among those who do not then? Do you not lose the votes of those who follow you because you do not know how to appreciate? Because you find it hard to attack those who deliberately disobey you, you simply generalized everyone because you believe it to be fair and safer for you?

I watch you tell us that you pity us but you don't (which is confusing to say so by the way). We are watching as well and we pity you back. Just as you teach us, if you want something and you are asking for it from somebody or in this case everybody, you do not ask for it in a way that people will only end up hating you.

Right and Just falls under command system which according to you is whatever the higher command says so.

As for explanations,yes we agree that it is unnecessary at times. We did not ask why because the answer could have been buried in the past. You have complicated such a simple thing and turned it into something complex and bounced it back to us as a riddle which if we answer will make us impolite. You made our question seem like ' why is the sea blue?' when we were only asking 'what time is it?" when the answer is nothing but in the present why do you have to dig too deep just so you can block us off. By doing that, are you really sure you are teaching us in the best way you can with no whatsoever prejudices?

We are both helpless.

I will always show you respect because i respect your title, but i am beginning to doubt if it will ever be because i respect you for who you are.
