Between Love and Stupidity


Sometimes and so many times I think being nice to someone who treats us like a trash is not love but stupidity.
People can be so cruel by looking down on you even you have been so good to them.
For example, you pass them and you put your smile to them but they pretend that they didnt know you and looking somewhere instead of giving even a fake smile.

Have you ever had this experience?

Cause I have.

What have I done?
Did I do something bad for them?
But I dont think I have, because I am not close with them. I barely talk to them. I just give my smile for them everytime I see them.
But why?
What is wrong with these people????
Do they think they are almighty and born as queen so that they dont give their smile to anyone who they thought was unworthy?

So, I made it clear to myself. If they can do that to me, so am I.
Why should I try to be a nice friend if they cant. Im not stupid. And then everytime I see them I act like I dont see them. Smiling? Ughhh.. you're kidding me ...

But after I did it, I ask myself. Do I happy?
And I know the answer. No...

I definitely know that Im wrong.
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.  (1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ESV)

it does not rejoice at wrongdoing...

I did wrong and that is why there is no rejoice at all after that. Sometimes when I feel this, my ego is back and said Im stupid if I let them hurt me.

So yes, its true. Its stupid if you dont fight something that makes you hurt. But the way you fight them will make a difference. Whether you choose to do the same like they did to you perhaps even crueler.

Or you choose to do the act of love. Forgiveness...

For example, just put your smile everytime you see them and try to talk to them even just by saying 'hi'.

Choices is yours..

and mine...
