Have you ever been an 'Internet Bully'?

Everytime we hear the word 'bully' a very mean  person comes to our mind.

But what if I tell you.....I have been an Internet bully too?

          Story Time

As I said earlier...I have been an Internet bully too.

But I think a lot of us have been actually.

Knowingly or unknowingly.

I remember commenting on a celebrity's picture that she looked super ugly (cause I hated her)

I remember being annoyed at random you tubers and commenting mean things about them.

But as time passed I slowly realised that I was actually being a bully. And it wasn't like me at all .

I started working on it and thinking about why I used to do that.

And I kind of came into a conclusion

I was just relieving my stress by doing that.  By pointing out someone's flaws I was just trying to hide mine.

And I never felt guilty about it.

Because I didn't saw the effect of my action.

I didn't see the hurt in the person's  eyes when they read my comment , I  didn't see their smile being dropped , I didn't see their eyes slowly tearing up

Maybe that's why I could comment those mean words.

A person I haven't meet

A person I haven't talked to

A person I don't even know  then why am I attacking them?

My careless statement which I will even forget about in a few minutes can cause I damage I can't even imagine.

Words can become a weapon sometimes

It can even be sharper than knives

Attacking stranger with the words I can never directly say to my parents or friends

Relieving my stress by digging a hole  in someone's heart

How stupid was I to do that?
