The word “Description” is defined as
- a spoken or written account of a person, object, or event.
- a type or class of people or things.
From young, we are thought to describe what we see- what
shape or color is a flower. What sounds a horse makes? And how does your friend
look like? What color is her hair?
Young to old, I have been through it too. I am going to
speak mostly for myself here, I have heard many a different descriptions about
myself. I shall give you a little background, for example, of who I believe I am
- I am an opinionated woman, and I don’t belief in being “adult and serious” all
the time. I prefer getting into mischievous , quirky drama and having a good
laugh as I watch life’s lemons miss me. Today is today, let tomorrow figure
itself out. Hop on a horse and ride the
wind!(unless..you don’t actually know how to ride)
I am not sure how, but these words(I swear on my horse) has
been used to describe my character:
opinionated – “difficult”
Kidder – “childish”
Mischievous, quirky, creative or a little emotional as women
sometimes are – “dramatic” (and not in the good way)
laughing at lemons – “mental distress”
Today is today, let tomorrow figure itself out –
“indecisive”
Asking people to hop on a horse – “mad”
Though, I’ll probably agree with the last one..
I am not entirely certain why it is so difficult for some,
but I think it is important to acknowledge someone’s positive traits and
respect that we are all different . For example I have
also been said to be creative, friendly, bubbly, and a confident person.
There,
now that wasn’t so hard, was it?
Speaking on the 2nd definition of description, recently,
I have even heard of a man being described as Dark, with a class lower than
another persons’. I do not think the definition should be taken so figuratively,
and it’s downright rude to describe someone using their color, earning , race,
religion or “caste”. In the eyes of THE
HE, every person is created equal(maybe some with more brainpower), and nothing
I have mentioned in the previous sentence can define a person’s behavior or
good heart. Don’t believe me? Just look up Osama’s family background. His
father came from a poor family but he worked hard to come up in his life and
became one of the most rich non-royal in modern Saudi. Rich, fair, and almost Royal
– is not the words the world would use to describe Bin Laden Junior.
So the next time someone describes to me something in such a
negative manner, tell you what. I am turn to them and tell them to hop on a horse,
and ride right into hell.
