Well, I sort of use people's posts outside the advice they give. It is important for me to understand how other people think.

I already know why I was upset... I get triggered when I am misunderstood. I already know that and why, because I have been in many situations in my life where other people had the "right" to interpret my thoughts and feelings, while I did not have the right to correct them. It's not caring what people think per se.... it is trying to send them the right message.... if I want to be understood, I need to learn how to say and act in a manner that gets my point across. It's all a big lesson.

But what I also wonder, is if the state of weakness itself can have something to offer that I'm missing. Sometimes I feel life is full of lessons and I miss half of them.
