Hey there! I've had a few ideas for a wise post, and they all intermingled, so I am going to make 3 wise lessons in 1, these of which aren't intended toward anyone but are things I feel we all could learn from. Without further ado, here's our first one!

Acting Depressed To Gain Attention

I understand this is a sore topic for some, because sometimes we feel its alright to overreact, and clearly it is alright to let our emotions out, but we all know this happens. People get depressed to gain attention. I'm not saying this is bent toward the DSGHQ, for this happens in real life too. Lets just keep things small here. Anywho, it starts with a goal usually. After a long time, this goal might not be achieved. A person might be in so much stress to complete this goal/task, and feel like giving up. They might finally come to a breaking point where they have to get comfort from others, and this is precisely what one does. They act depressed so others will give them the right push they need to start up again. Again, this isn't really a bad thing, but at some point we have to be real for a moment.

This is acquired at an early age if one is around this kind of emotion a lot. In the DSGHQ, we sometimes get frustrated about something that we feel shouldn't be right, and at one point we've all done so. We feel like the best way is to gain attention for the 'cause', and this is a popular way of making ourselves feel better. Some of the reasons we do this in the DSGHQ are when we don't get a rank, lose a rank, something that seems unfair to you happens, someone makes us feel bad, etc. Some ways we show this are changing our profile picture, background, moods, and signatures to gloomy, dull, and sometimes worrying pictures and gifs. This changes the way others think about you. This isn't real life, so we feel its alright for others to get worked up over us because this isn't about real life problems. Real life problems involve suicidal thoughts, getting into drugs to help them feel better, etc. I've seen some people in the past who have used pictures that say things like, "When no one cares about you, why do you still deserve to live." This is so worrying, and I don't want anyone to turn to things like this for attention. If you want to stay true to yourself and to others, don't let setbacks get in the way. We may feel we want to get angry or depressed, but lets be honest. This is a game. It is here to entertain, not to break down. We are to support others online aswell, but not if those we need to support are grabby for attention. Our feelings cannot literally bleed onto the page, so we can't ever tell how someone is really like. Our true colors will never really show online, because we cannot understand the characteristics of someone unless you've known them for years. If they act themselves around you. And because this isn't possible, we need to keep our emotions in tact. Let things settle aside and enjoy the game given to us today! This wise lesson was for you all to understand that although we cannot tell one's true emotion, we can still control our feels and enjoy ourselves. Don't draw attention if you think its funny in doing so. Love yourself for who you are and the best outcome will present itself, even if it isn't what you expected. Sometimes, the best opportunity lies in our failure itself.

Being Jealous Of Others

We might keep jealousy to ourselves or maybe converse to others online, but we all have this. Natural emotions such as jealousy, envy, anger, sadness, fear, worry [etc] come to us even when we don't feel like it. This emotion in particular can come to us when someone has something we don't have, when someone makes us feel insecure about ourselves, and the way others act. We may think badly about others because of our jealousy, and if I've said this is every single one of my wise posts, I'll say it again. We've all done this at some point, unless we are perfect and have no doubt about ourselves or others. Jealousy might be a natural emotion, but the best way to avoid 'confrontation' is to keep it inside our head. It made me realize. Made me realize we all have these feelings on the inside. Some choose to be outgoing and speak to the ones we feel jealous about, and some keep it inside our mind.

We need to realize that whatever we think is best should be what we do, but at the cost of others, we need to do what society feels we need to do. This isn't in every case, because society in MANY cases can be wrong. I'm telling you to make a decision based on the fact that it might hurt others if you truly told them how you feel. Make a decision that seems the most humane. Humans can be most delicate. Our jealousy shouldn't get so far that it harms others. We are in control of our lives. If we choose to tell others how we feel so be it. Tell them how amazing they can be, compliment them on how good they actually are. Sometimes people can't understand why others are jealous of them, for they see no reason of being jealous. Whatever the case is, make the best of your words. They hurt more than you think. Words are like swords, the sharper you put it, the more they'll hurt. They can fracture for an eternity if you're broken down, and jealousy could be a main cause. We can get ahead of ourselves with our emotions, but just remember. We live one life where no one is perfect, and we all have something to hide. We can't criticize them if we have the same mistakes. If we are stuck inside our own little world. We can ruin friendships with one word, and we can break down a relationship with one action. Jealousy is an emotion we can't control, but one we can use to better ourselves. Because in the end, we're all poor damaged souls.

The Affect We Have On Others

There are two outcomes when it comes to affecting others; the good affect and the bad affect. Obvious right? Well, lets talk about both now.

GOOD AFFECT

Lets just say a corny example. There is a rocker kid who doesn't do homework and skips school and a nerdy kid of kid who loves equations and books. They become friends and the rocker kid ends up being a great guy because of the nerdy kid. Lets name a actual example. Jimmy is throwing rocks at his neighbor's house [yeah he is a bad kid], and a teenager sees whats happening. He comes over to Jimmy and exclaims, "Hey kid, how come your throwing rocks?" The teenager replies with, "Well it isn't right. Mrs. Baker will be angry if she sees the damage to her house." And they help clean up her garden, house, and yard.

A good affect comes from others inspiring or getting to you. You may realize your doing wrong, or you may just want to better yourself in the way of another. Either way, we surround ourselves with these people because they shape us to who we are. We may not think about this, but whether we like it or not, the people we hang out with will change your life for good or for worse. The wise lesson overall is to choose friends or people you surround yourself with wisely, because they affect the outcome of your future self. Anyways, we love having these people around most of the time because they can be influential and fun to be around.

BAD AFFECT

An example of this would be someone who likes to skip school and gets in trouble. You better yourself to be like them and the next thing you know your in juvenile detention or even jail. Again, we need to choose wisely, or we'll end up regretting our life decisions. The best way to think about it is to not be too involved with these people. You should hang out with them and try to better them [which I'll explain later], but never try to do anything wrong with them. It could lead you to big trouble.

MUTUAL AFFECT

I know I said there were two affects we have on others, but this one doesn't really count. This affect is basically where both personalities are the same, and there is nothing to change about the other. You both are friendly to each other, and both understand you aren't perfect. You attempt to better yourselves with your friendship, and the affect is thus mutual. There is something I'm missing. This is the part where we affect others, not just others affecting us.

OUR AFFECT ON OTHERS

This is the same as all the affects listed above, but replace the person who is affecting someone else with you. We all need to be careful about who we influence and how we influence someone, for we could be leading ourselves and them in the wrong direction. We need to remember to always watch our actions, because dragging someone else into our situations is never the case.

HOW THIS WORKS ONLINE

Well, there are a few ways this works online. First, others can hear you talk badly about others, and try this out for themselves. They end up hurting someone else just because of you. Another way you affect others is if you change the way others think about you. Someone might learn from you and try doing so. It could taint the way others think about you online, or ruin their online friendship with others. One of the final ways someone can affect others is by exposing someone to awful words, gifs, shows, etc which could change their life forever. I know, all the ones I listed were bad effects, but to be honest, you cannot really affect someone for the better online. As humans, we respond differently when we're with someone, but online it can be tough and cruel, and we might not know what to do in a situation. In fact, you cannot share a bond with someone online if you don't truly know them and interact with them. Overall, the affect we have on each other in real life and online is very strong, and it could better or worse someone else. Be wise in how you treat others and expose others to things, because it could harm the, crucially. Thank you for reading my post; it was wonderful making it and I enjoyed writing what truly comes from my heart.
