Reactions
For every action, there
is some reaction, be at
minor or major. We all
react differently.
Sometimes with anger,
others with compassion.
Maybe a bastardised
version of both. Usually
the first reaction is
how we feel, then we
calm down, only for
conversation to
reinvigorate a
smouldering fire. Either
way, I stop caring
after a while as it
just makes life easier.
