Nothing new under the sun. Not in my life anyways.

I wonder, do some people ever think about what they are saying, that it might just effect the person they are talking about if that person were to overhear. They must not really care, especially when they say it within hearing distance of that person, they don't really care that there is that chance.
I guess I don't understand that kind of stuff since I am not such a spiteful person. I am not perfect but I do not talk about people when they are sitting right there nearby and just hope that they might be half deaf or quite dumb and not know what I am talking about.
I wonder what makes a person that way, to where they just dislike one person so much or think so little of another person. I have disliked people before I suppose and have even thought some people were quite something else and possibly must have come from a different planet but not to the point that it was obvious that I just couldn't stand thier guts and hated that I had to walk on the same carpet as them. How sad for them that they would feel even a little bit that way.
At this point in my life I can honestly say that there is no one I dislike at all. I have been feeling quite good lately and am very encouraged and uplifted although lonely alot of times, even when I am in a large crowd I do at times feel as if I am in a glass box looking out, or sometimes I wonder if I am invisible but this new little stumbling block I have let God turn into a stepping stone and just stepped right over it.
I just thought I would share, maybe it would help someone to think before they talk about others, or at least wait till you get home and tell your husband, thats what he's there for you know, to listen to whatever you have to say.
Well at least thats the way my marriage is, Travis and I have no secrets, for you see he is the other half of me so if something bothers me or someone tells me something, I tell him. I always tell people if they say " don't tell anyone, its a secret" or whatever, I always let them know, I can keep a secret but I will always tell my husband for we do not keep any secrets from each other, about anything. But then I have a perfect marriage and I know that not everyone has that privilege. I am sorry for them.
