Caring ~

I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I have become arrogant, but because I have reached a point where I do not want to waste time on what displeases or hurts me. I can’t tolerate cynicism, excessive criticism, or any unreasonable demands. I have lost the desire to please those who don’t like me, to love those who do not love me, or to smile at those who won’t smile back. I no longer spend a moment on those who lie or try to manipulate me. I have decided to stop coexisting with pretence, hypocrisy, dishonesty, and insincere praise. I cannot tolerate selective knowledge or academic arrogance. I also do not engage in popular gossip. I dislike conflict and comparisons. I believe in a world of opposites, so I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities. In friendship, I cannot accept a lack of loyalty or betrayal. I don’t get along with those who can not offer compliments or words of encouragement. Exaggerations bore me, and I struggle to accept those who do not like animals. Above all, I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve it.
