In an argument there are no second chances. When you come out and say something that is irrevocable that is exactly what it is. In text and chat you can back space your way out of hurting someone, you can see your anger and hurtful words in black and white and you have the choice to hit backspace or hit send.
In real life arguments there are no referreries telling you you are hitting below the belt or that your on the foul line. So it is up to you to make that choice. I have been reading the Bible a lot lately and there are days when I pray and say alright God guide my reading. The other day I read a passage in Proverbs Chp 15 I think it was and the long and the short of it was, when you speak evil, evil is inside you. When you act out of anger and jealousy that is what consumes you. Inside all that bad character swirls up and you speak from that. If you went to a restaurant and they put in front of you rancid meat with a side of animal waste would you eat it up. Consume it and let the disease of that animal attack your system?
That is what anger and hatred does to you. It is a disease that hates you back and others will perceive you as you are.
Since being out here I have experienced a few instances when the choice of my words hindered a conversation. It could always go both ways and those who let the anger and hatred consume them will say anything to get a rise and see you come to their anger. I didn't, I refused and alone I cried or screamed and maybe even swore like the F bomb was atomic and a mushroom cloud engulfed my area. However I did not let them see me sweat. Posed and calm I eliminated confusion by sticking to the facts and the point so as not to get lost in the forrest of angst.
The words they use are predictable triggers of an upcoming bout if you choose to enter the ring. Don't let anyone make you eat the rancid meat. Do not voluntary inject yourself with the disease.
You are better, different and smarter and those who hate on you will do anything to take you from your world to theirs.
