The Journal of Bob Arcania I don't understand life.

I don't understand life. I almost got the shit beat out of me tonight by this guy who shoved his wife down onto the sidewalk. I yelled asshole after him after asking her if she was okay, and she ran over to him telling him that I was talking shit about him, and it was heart-breaking.
If it weren't for my friends I would probably be in the hospital right now. And this definitely isn't the first time I let my mouth get ahead of me, but I don't think I would ever forgive myself if I had just said nothing. I would have easily taken it, too, if it weren't for my friends pulling me away and locking me in a Milio's bathroom. And that asshole even tried to take a swing at my friends, who were all girls.
I just don't understand people. I can easily forgive her, because she was obviously trying to direct his anger away from her, and I understand that's how abusive relationships often work. But he was coming at me with such intensity.
One of these days it's going to catch up with me. I got recognized the other day by these guys who I made fun of at a pizza place for using the word gay in a derogatory sense, and they were so mad at me. And I stuck up for a female cashier before then from a jerk who was harrassing her, and he tried to start a fight with me. Eventually, I'm going to stick up for someone, and it's going to end badly for me.

But it takes such strength and courage to be this person. It's the kind of thing I look for in friends. You're the kind of people that I love. Don't quit that. Ever. There are only a few good souls left out there in the world. But perhaps if the ones who are here stick it out as long as they can, they can recruit some narrow minded assholes into actually THINKING, and perhaps doing something kind for someone other than themselves, for a change. "You must be the change you wish to see in the world."-Mahatma Ghandi
The good always gets some kind of resistance. Mainly because nobody's really used to it. There's always a catch or some fine print somewhere. The good guy opposition is really just fear, I think. The fear of changing perspectives, the fear of being let down.
Don't let the scum of the world bring you down.
