Over The Line
Something happened today, and it all happened so fast that I still don't think I've had enough time to process it all. Maybe that's why I held my tongue, even though I really wanted to do something.
One of my teachers announced that she was diagnosed with breast cancer on Tuesday, and that she has to have major surgery to find out if it's spread. She had enough respect for us to tell us what was going on, and then she admitted that she was terrified. My heart was just breaking for her, but then something happened...
Some moron, who always says something stupid and makes a scene, said something really mean to her. When I say it was mean, I mean it was f**kED UP. I try hard not to use foul language on my blog, but that's what it was. I just wanted to get up and stick my fist in his mouth and my foot in his pussy.
That was this morning. I haven't been able to get it out of my mind all day. I keep going back to how awful I felt for her and how much respect I have for her. Not just as a teacher, but as a woman who's about to face something that's already changed her life. I just wonder what's going to happen, and I hope that whatever it is, she never loses hope.
But at the same time, I can't help but think about the retarded prick who basically told her there was no hope, and he did it in the meanest way possible. I know I have no right to judge anyone, but I don't understand how someone could have so much hatred in their heart that they could be so cruel. I know he has beef with her, but come on.
There's something inside of me that wants to do something. But there's another part of me that says not to because he's going to wish he hadn't said what he did someday. I just hope that it isn't because he or someone in his family gets cancer, or something worse. I hope that it happens after he's had time to think about what he said and how he probably made her feel. I know how I felt, and I know how angry everyone else in class was with him.
I guess I'm really upset because I have this idea in my head that people should know better. I'd be so ashamed of myself for even thinking what he said. It was so vile and so hateful that I don't even want to repeat it here on my blog. Not that he would ever read it, but still.
So anyway, I just needed to vent.
