So I surf, and the nosey little louse inside gets to me and I just have to do a little sniffing around. For reasons that are unjustifyable to myself.
I come across adjectives such as "Hypocritical" glaring in my direction along with accusations that I had "lost integrity in [my] dealings with people in [my] daily life".
Within come a myrid reactions. The first being confusion and amusment. In a bid to live a life as transparent as possible to the world around me, I certainly did not see being called a hypocrite coming round the bend. But it happened anyway.
How odd.
So I think about it, and then realised that from their perspective, it probably does seem like I am a hypocrite. Afterall, they would never know my conviction on the overhead bridge on opening night. How the divine put me back in my place. How I compartmentalize people and life, somewhat even beyond my own understanding.
From this angle, I can say that I have not been hypocritical, albeit them being justified in their feelings.
On second thought, I guess I can say that I am hypocritical. We all are. What with all that was going on under the table during CG, I can hardly say that I stand alone in this department. But this isn't about anyone else but me. I have to learn greater transparency. But even so, Love is above wisdom. The human head is in control, for the good of the human heart.
My other reaction was targeted not so much at the sentiment of the content but rather its form - The internet.
As an MCMer once chided me on my inappropriate use of public domain, I cannot help but be extra-sensitive to who is saying what and where. I think what bothers me most is how being so closely connected to a specific medium of communication hasn't helped in nurturing greater sensitivity and maturity with regards to the internet. It's so dangerous.
Crypt is good.
But anyway, all said and done -

God forbid I take the easy way out.
