L3. What ever happened to respect?

There are many things that make me angry so choosing which to talk about is quite difficult. I think I’d have to say situations in high school would have to be my top choice. The constant drama, lies, rumors, and judgment that goes on is ridiculous. I feel as if nobody is ever allowed to be fully accepted for who they are. The fact that drama is a constant in our school doesn’t help the rumors either. It just makes the rumors a lot worse because people end up believing them and it goes around from person to person. Also, a lot of people tend to lie. You can never tell whether or not somebody is telling you the truth. It makes you feel as if you have to fend for yourself and keep things all to yourself in school until you get home. You have to be extremely careful with who you trust these days. Somebody can be your friend one minute and then the next there talking bad about you. You truly never know. Next is where judgment comes in. One lie that turns into a rumor will turn into drama which turns into people judging you. It’s a big chain that goes on and on. One thing that makes me very angry is how much people judge you. They may not even know you yet they judge you, it makes no sense. If you don’t know someone, than you truly don’t have any right to judge them. You may know there name and may see there outer appearance but that doesn’t show or tell you what’s inside or what they have gone through. The things people say when they judge someone can be so hurtful. I can’t stand listening to it. Nobody should have to worry about being their self. They shouldn’t have to worry about being who they are or liking what they like. Everybody should be able to be their own person in their own type of way without being criticized or judged for it. It’s just wrong to do that and it makes me so angry seeing it happen or hearing about it. Don’t get me wrong, I love this school, but I feel like people here need to be a bit more open minded and more caring of others around them whether they like someone or not, be respectful. You don’t know what somebody else has gone through or is going through. Therefore, you don’t know how things you do or say about them will affect them.
