It's not often i get told that I am immature, always depressed, cancels on important meetings, acting stupidly, rude, selfish. No doubt, it hurts, it really hurts to be told i'm something i have never thought myself to be. Nor has my best friend or any of my closest friends ever told me I am this.
I must admit, I can or may have carried some of the above in the past, or presently, but I don't believe it's to the extent that someone needs to SMS it to me to tell me that. I think everyone has certain levels of immaturity, sadness, happiness, or being rude and selfish and its to what extent your friends and family can or cannot accept. It also depends on who the opponent is.
In many experiences I have had with certain friends, i've found that the ones that tell you "hey, you look really tired and drawn out today.." are the people who are feeling tired and drawn out themselves. The people that ask you "How come you can be so casual to work?" when you are wearing a smart Cue suit are the ones who are wearing a 3/4 length pants with a casual top to work.
I wonder if this is the same reason for the SMS as what i have experienced before?
I try my very best to maintain personal ethics. Having my own set of values and principles that I live by. Reading a couple of Ethical Decison Making Models, Rion (1991), Langenderfer & Rockness (1990), Guy (1990), Hall (1993) and Hodgson (1992), I realised that my own values and principles are based on a combination of Guy (1990) and Hodgson (1992).
This being caring, honest, respecting others, integrity, fairness, loyalty, keeping promise and pursuit of excellence.
I do need to repeat myself, i do try my very best to maintain this, but like everyone else, i'm just another human being and there are always times where i might fail. But does times like that need to be told to me like the way it did?
Do i need to explain myself ? No.. i've been told, i dont need to explain myself and if thats what they think, let it be. Who cares!
