so what i will never understand is when people get into a disagreement, or whatever, why do people let it fester instead of working out their problems? i mean, everyone needs a cooling down period for a little while, but is it not true that we are not supposed to let the sun go down on our anger? the way i see it, there is no problem to great where compassion, understanding, and a few hugs can't get through it. so with this, why must people refuse closure and demand to drag things out, not only upsetting people more, but in fact causing the heartache of non resolution to be drug out over the span of days or weeks?

the way i see it is like this... if i get into a spat with someone - there is no better time to resolve it then the present (barring 'cool down' time). to me the reason we are supposed to solve our issues before sundown is not only to keep contentment between people, but most importantly because we don't know what tomorrow holds. what happens if i get in a fight with my best friend then we run off from one another not talking, but later that night something befalls me and i am taken away from this earth without resolution - or visa versa? think about what that would do to someone holding a petty grudge. now i know you think that this is so far fetched it sounds stupid. well, point to fact, take chase. he was very angry with some of us days before he died. but finally we all sat down and talked it out (which is all that needed to be done in the first place). in a moment things were great and everyone was glad to be in each other's company. unfortunately later that night chase passed away. what would it be like if we had not made it a point to fix things that night? would i feel guilty or feel like chase died with anger in his heart?

so my point is simple... if you are mad at someone, have a disagreement, or just NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE, then do it as soon as possible - because you never know when the last chance you will get to tell someone how much they mean to you...

as always, keepin it real... REAL real...
