I could understand her exploding when I accidentally passed a thoughtless comment but when I thought back at the incident and saw the magnitude of her explosion, I couldn't seem to find a reason as to why.
True, the thoughtless comment could have been thought through before blurted out but even so, a normal person wouldn't have had a reaction as big as hers. Thinking she was just being ridiculous, I tried my best to push that incident to the back of my head.
Later that night, she came back and told me a situation she'd went through, which was totally unrelated to what had happened earlier. But as I slowly digested the information she had fed me with, I suddenly came to realise why she had been so quick to anger; life had been shitting at her.
It's easy for people like, maybe, me, to push any shit life throws at me away before that shit starts to stink your whole life but what about loved ones? What do you do when they come crying at you about the shit life has been giving him/her? If only it was that easy to help that loved one push his/her shit away.
What could I do? I could only cry with her, hug her multiple times, offer her a listening ear, hoping that through all these she'll gain some strength in pushing her shit in her life away before it gets too smelly and start afresh.
