Life is so tough sometimes, or due to many things — it can appear to be.

Sadly, our perception makes it even worse.

A few days ago, I was incredibly tired.

I have this sort of friend, who knows stuff about me. She knows I like this man very much. Or maybe she just thinks I’m into him for his money.

The problem with certain people is that they judge us for who we are.

They project themselves upon us. They say, for instance: “you’re greedy”, or “you’re fat”, “you’re this” and “you’re that”, but they speak about themselves. Did you ever notice this incredible truth?

Anyways, a few days ago I was very tired, and I happened to pass by this friend of mine, and she gave me “the look”.

She has this way to look at people, sometimes, as if they were incredibly stupid. As if she knows what and who they are, better than those people themselves.

Anything that these people do, is stupid and unworthy, according to them.

I don’t know if the fact that I was so tired had anything to do with why I felt so hurt about “the look”. Possibly.
