Is this really just an expression of empathy? Or is it just southerners trying to be polite when they really want to say something rude? "Awh look at that poor lady trying to jog around the track, bless her heart."
Any nasty remark sounds better with a "bless your heart" follow up. "Your life sucks, bless your heart."
Be thankful next time someone tells you "bless your heart," at least they still care enough to follow up with it!
About Me
- alice
- I have a burning desire to be a wandering nomad and experience all life has to offer. I dream of the carefree day I pack up and go, possibly finding peace in a lighthouse up north in Maine. Or maybe I'll end up on a mountain where I can see the sunset to my right and the sunrise to my left. No matter the destination I plan to meet many new faces- strangers, locals, other wandering nomads. And hopefully be an inspiration to most by leaving coffee stains and drops of paint everywhere I go. But until then i will escape to here...
