"Conscious Uncoupling"

Not usually one to keep up with celebrity gossip, but I am one to read a lot of Buzzfeed/Huffington post, and I came across an article which led me to Gwyneth Paltrow's GOOP.com entry about her separation from her husband, Chris Martin...

Which is a pretty sad event in anyone's life - just guessing - and basically the majority of what I have seen since is a load of articles slamming her for being pretentious or making fun of her for not just using the words separation or divorce.



Erm...So what?


I don't get why she called it that either, but clearly it works for her, and all I can say is:

- The day that I start laughing at someone or calling names or poking fun at their choice of words or their situation simply because of the terminology they use to communicate what they're going through, is the day when I stop being a compassionate human-being and start being an asshole.
