Inner Dialogue

The part that bothered me the most about the reaction I got from people was that there seemed to be no acknowledgement of the process it took to reach the point where I was ready to make the decision I made. I felt like my intelligence, my reflective nature, my ability to be rational and reasonable was being marginalized by people who not only had no clue about what I was thinking, but didn't want to really know what was going on. They just wanted to judge me by what they saw on the outside without making an effort to understand the underlying events that brought it all to the breaking point. There's always a story. Some people just don't want to hear it.
