Why I Don't Speak Out


Because I didn't live your life and it will worsen it. But I also ask for that in return. Try not to be so opinionated, without even thinking about what you don't know against the person.

Listen. Big part of listening goes beyond getting the main point and drawing conclusions. Doing it empathetically, or with feelings, means putting yourself in the talker's position without even getting emotionally involved.

Put yourself in someone's shoes. That is absurd. Of course you may, but not entirely whole. You don't know that person, you don't even know his past, what he's up to or how's he doing.

You're not the one who trades his sleep hours working on the jobs he should have done on the hours you got from his time.

You're not the one who's catching up with his limited time as a resource because he wanted to finish the task, but opposite are more incoming tasks.

You're not the one bombarded with serious things in the office when you try to catch someone else's attention for nothing.

You're not the one who's responsible for his works when you try to compare your job with his.

If you only knew how much uncomfortable it is to be with you, if you only knew.

Try to listen, try not to annoy anyone. Try to widen your understanding, closed-minded guy.
