Curiosity is the purest form of insubordination


I don't have a filter and I ask a lot of questions. Sometimes, people feel attacked when I ask questions. It may be because of my choice of words. I really can't blame them. I do sound accusatory sometimes.

I can't control their feelings and I still can't figure out how people can translate a simple statement or question to accusations. Sometimes people think too much and they feel guilty about things they shouldn't feel guilty about.
On one of those days I am in the mood to ask questions, someone interpreted them as "blame". How? I still can't figure it out. I grew up alone and I don't really have much practice with making people understand me. If people understood what I was trying to say, good. If they don't, I assume they are stupid. Ces't la vie.

"think positive. stop blaming. that's the secret right?"

Wrong. the Secret is feeling good about the things you think. Thinking positive doesn't work if you still feel the worry, fear and anger. The universe will still give you the things you are worried about, things you fear and things that makes you angry.

The movie specifically said if you shout out the things you don't want, that's thinking positive but it won't work. The secret is to feel good about the things around you and good things will come to you.

Sometimes what you feel doesn't translate to spoken words. The best thing about the Secret is you know what you feel, you know what you mean and you know what you want. People may not understand what you are asking for but that doesn't matter because they won't give you your dreams, the universe will.

The movie didn't say anything about blame. In fact, when you have a problem, blame someone or something and move on. That works.
