a line, a word, a phrase, a sentence...

funny how different people respond to words that other people use. we are all individuals who come from different backgrounds, molded by different environments, shaped by different experiences.. that must explain the differences in sensitivitives of each individual to certain words.. for example if someone says,"Hey you look like shit.", it might not strike any chord in me, i'll just laugh it off and forget abt it. but if this was directed at another friend, she might take it personally and ignore you for the rest of the day.

so sometimes, be careful when you say something.. you never know when you'll offend who.. you never know which words will end up hurting that person.. even if it was meant as a joke, even if to you it was just a harmless attempt at jest, even if it was never your intention to hurt anyone...
