100% people this generation completely ignore the fact that everyone in this world has feelings and dealing with personal issues just like them. They have opinions and beliefs, just like them. And should also be respected, just like them. Projecting your issues, justifying your behavior, ignoring your own personal flaws while shaming others is never going to make you feel better. It’s no ones responsibility to heal you or to accept your negative energy. It is your responsibility to work on yourself and share that energy with everyone else. If you want to change the world, you start by working on yourself.
