Journal Entry

I realized something yesterday about this place. There are things that happen everyday that puts you in a state of mind that you have to take respect from someone who does something to make you think that they lack it for you. It’s always over some possession or a favor that is never repayed. There are more things in life that arise from things of this nature in life inside than any other thing. I realize that it is ourself that is the antagonist in these situations. There is no one setting out to disrespect you on purpose unless it’s blatant. A lot of the time it’s just the opposite of what we assume. The person will have great respect for you and little for self. I have been very concious of having patience and not letting the petty little things take hold of my mind and emotions. This is an incubator for that.
