I have issues.

I have issues, I'll admit it.
I'm not afraid to say that.

But what I don't like is when people fight.
And when they fight someone elses battle.

This happened last night.
My friend Will and I were talking and he asked if I knew who wrote the Declaration of Independence and I said no. He was shocked and started asking me all these other questions.
Like, who freed the slaves and spell his name correctly. And so he said he couldn't talk to me anymore that day and sign off AIM. He then text messages me saying things and called me dumb.

I told my friend Amanda about it and she got pissed.
So I had made a status update of facebook that said "I don't care, I don't care... I DON'T CARE!" And of course, Will comments on it saying I should care.

THEN Amanda goes into the conversation and basically would of "beat his ass if he wouldn't stop."
But now, everything is fine... I guess?
I don't know.

I have a issue with telling people my problems because I am 100% against fighting.
I hate fighting with people, people fighting with each other, being in the middle of people's fights.

To me, fighting isn't worth anything. Nothing happens when you fight.
Nothing.
You say things that later on you wish you hadn't.
Why lose someone you care about because of something little?

Funny thing is, as I think and type this, this very thing happened to me and Will was the one who told me it wasn't worth losing a friend. And I believe him 100% because you don't know when later in life you'll need or want that person again and they'll no longer be there for you.

So why hold a grudge?
Why take something so amazing and turn it into nothing?

There isn't a reason. So why do it? I don't know. But from that day forward I have hated getting into heated "discussions" with other people.

Life is to short to be mad at someone.
Be the bigger person and don't say anything about or forgive them.

"If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins."
Matthew 6:14-15
