I'm trying to understand.
Wondering if there is much worse.
I haven't found much worse.
Because ignoring has so many levels.
You ignore little things like a question someone asks you.
By ignoring that,
you are telling them how much you acknowledge the life of that person.
You don't care enough to even respond to the precious life they are given.
So this little act you thought wasn't so big... turns out to be the biggest of all.
You're ignoring LIFE! God given life to someone else too!
Where did your life come from?
Where did you get that breath you just wasted to say a snide comment and then ignore a human being?
Who are you to decide your breath is more important than theirs?
If you shouldn't like to respond.
At least say so.
But never, ever, ever, sit there silently as if to pretend they don't exist.
This small level of ignoring isn't so small.
It leads to too many deeper things.
Whether for yourself or the other.
On you're end you have no respect for the life of others.
On their end.. they know it.
Horrible.Terrible.Impudent. mindset about life.
Please please start thinking about life! you foolish earth.
I understand there is a time and place for ceasing to talk and converse.
But there is never a time to ignore the existence of life.
Even the smallest act of acknowledging you heard and saw but can't continue in a further talk is at least giving credit to the fact that they are a living human being like yourself.
Think about what you're doing.
Think about what you're not doing.
Have some respect for your life.
And more for the life of others.
