I wish I could slap RESPECT on your cheeks.

I'm so angry, I can cry.
Whatever fuck is going on here, I really don't understand.
This is a blog entry I would really want these people to read. They'll hate me for it, but at least start thinking for once. Hopefully.

Actions and words can really hurt someone. Especially older people. Not just any random older people outside, I'm not referring to the uncle who stays at your block nor am I referring to your teacher. I'm not referring to the aunty who works at the same place you do nor am I referring to that particular makcik you see everyday. This is much more than that. Actually, however you act, whatever you say, it is all based on your parent's upbringing. You claim you love your parents? Then why act in such a disgusting and disrespectful way that can only reflect badly on your own parents? If you think you have your parent's support in whatever immature way you behave then congrats, your whole family will be applauded for being so united and rude to everyone else.
I really don't understand.

RESPECT.

For someone like you who is practically a nobody in the society now, you sure as hell demand a truck load of respect from other people, older or younger than you. I can only think of one reason why you expect people to respect you. Because you think you're a successful individual who has everything in her life.
Define "has everything" in the society today. My opinion of that would be,
Certs.
A successful and secure career.
A stable income.
This is just the needs. I'm not getting into the relationship parts because we all know that. So which one of that do you have again? Can you try showing anyone of us?
Or are you just a temp staff at some retail store earning money that is enough for your silly shoppings and serving your boyfriends.

And to the older ones who have grown so big in their heads to even show the most simplest form of respect to elders. Oh yea, you boys are way older than I am but the way you carry yourself? The way you behave towards people older than you? Even the 4 year old boy has enough sense to go and salam any uncle or aunty he sees. But, I guess your uncle and aunties are some evil monsters that you have to avoid because of immature conflicts that has got nothing to do with you yet you choose to be involved in it. And because of that, you don't feel the need to waste your precious time to even acknowledge elders who are there. So your actions and rude ways are supposed to be deemed as justifiable to other people? Cheers to how much you have grown physically and mentally after your puberty. In other words, cheers to the maturity of your mind yea?

Sad to say, human beings talk. They always do. They observe other human beings and they talk. They talk about anything, positive and negative. However you carry yourself in this world, people will talk. You're supposed to think of this yourself, but if people around you has always been saying you're in the right and others are in the wrong, then I'm sorry for you. You will never learn. I don't like how some of the elderly I know think and behave, but that doesn't give me the excuse to ignore their presence and not even acknowledge them. Alhamdullilah, I have wonderful parents who taught me that.
However you detest someone who is related to you, respect should always be there. Especially towards the elders. Seriously. If you start thinking about it, nothing negative that goes on between the elders realy affects the younger generation, you just choose to follow your reckless emotions and think that you're being mature and supportive towards your side by acting like an idiot.
But if you live in your own immature world where you're right and everyone else who isn't on your side is wrong, then try staying happy and prospering in life that way. Let's see how far all of you can go by making elders sad and disappointed by the way you treat them.
