How I hate hypocrisy

Dedicated to a friend of mine, you're just a victim of hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy, according to wikipedia, is the state of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, ideals, thoughts, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually have. The word hypocrisy comes from the Greek ὑπόκρισις (hypokrisis), which means "Jealous" "play-acting", "acting out", "coward" or "dissembling".
Earlier today I just heard a shocking news (or probably just a rumor since the credibility of the messenger is still in question-if you smell subtle sarcasm, you're absolutely right) about one of my friend, C, whom is a fellow doctor. I confirm with my friend, she said part of it is true while the other part of it is still unclear-wether it's true or wrong.
You might still wondering why am I saying that my friend is just a victim of hypocrisy. Well, to be honest, it all started with just a simple conversation which I had with another fellow doctor about my plan to work in a hospital.
It turns out that my friend whom I mentioned before is no longer working in the hospital which I also mentioned. The fact is-which already been confirmed- she quit because some issue about the impending working schedule. While rumour has it that it might be related to some violation against something that we believed, honor, and cherished - don't ask me what, or otherwise it's gonna be a long explanation-, something that make us difference than some other people, something that we could be proud of-but some other people think they can use it to make them more superior.
Well to be honest, the violation is also been done, other than C, there are 3 other doctors, including me. Why don't I feel shame to say it? Or maybe you sense some pride in the way I'm saying that I've violated something? That is all because I'm not a hypocrite. Why? Because I did that for some good reasons. For the sake of myself, people I care about, my society, and I believe it'll allow me to fulfill the path that have been designed for me.
C maybe encouraged me to do so. But I believe she also has good reasons to do that and even encouraged me to do that.
And some people used that one mistake to ruin C's career. They did few terrible things. Unbelievable for the group of people who think that they never did anything wrong, or make some mistakes, or maybe they think that they are the saints while the four of us are the sinners. Well, think again fellas, we're all just f-ing human (pardon my language), we make mistakes, that's how we learn to be something better, or make some consideration about the grey zone, because not all things are black and white.
Let's back to our topic, hypocrisy, something that is based on jealousy and cowardness.
I make "jealousy is a disease" as a motto. It may sounds harsh, but it's the ugly truth. And even worse, it's contagious. Jealousy started with the discontent of people's heart and soul and mind, as it's spread through, it creates some paranoid dellusion, that other people are better than themselves, it raises their awareness of the flaws of other people, or even worse they create the pseudo-flaws, or fake flaws to that other people, and that, my friends, is the beginning of rumor, gossip, you name it.
And those people is just some cowards. They are too afraid about the system, they don't want to change it. They're just messing with people who follow the system.
Now you might wondering why am I calling those people who hurt C are just some hypocrites?
Because they're just pretending to be something they're not. Au contraire with their speech, their attitudes, their actions show something that is really different.
So, I'll just say, those hypocrites to me are just some fake people. They're actually going to be great actors, since they can act so well in real life, I bet they could win some Oscars if they're in a movie.
For C. As I always said, before exams -academic exams- or during hard times, "this too shall past". Just believe that there's a rainbow after every storm. All things are changing for something better. And I'm really proud that you handle this situation with a clear head and kind heart. You're a good person, you'll have a happy-wonderful-excellent ending in the story of your life. Thank you for sharing with me.
