Selfish-ness

The title says it all, in my opinion. It's one of those things where you either are or aren't. In my case, I'm quite the selfish person, I admit it. Most people will deny the fact. But props to the people who indeed to admit it.

We often times just think about ourselves, only want to talk about ourselves (problems, situations, lives, etc...). in other cases, we wish we could have something that more than likely will never be ours. For example, people have this thing in their minds that think they can get with their favorite actor/actress/singer/comedian and so on and so forth. Well, some people do get to be that lucky.

But then there are the people who still think that, and then find out their favorite person already has a boyfriend or girlfriend, or are even married. So what happens then? That person suddenly puts on their "all about me" mode and start devising plans on ways for that person to break up with their partner and hopefully take that person's place. Why? Because that person is selfish and wants everything to go their way, even if that 'way' is crazy and will never happen.

It's kind of like when you strike a match and then light a candle. First the flame is small, but then it grows. Even sometimes getting out of control and starting an even bigger fire, then you're S.O.L.

But you know, some people are just 'destined' to be the one chosen by someone famous. Sure, they're lucky, but it shouldn't be the end of the world... and it shouldn't come to the point of trying to find ways of making those people break up. Selfish. As with any relationship, it may or may not work. Just because they've been together for over a year, or whatever it is, doesn't mean they are soul mates.


As for me, I'm trying to work on the selfishness. It's not a major problem in my life, but it does pop up at times. It's under control... my flame is under control :)

Happy reading.

Don't close the book on me.... you're beautiful.

There is something in life that bothers me about some people. There are a few billion people in the world that have things called FLAWS. Okay, make that everyone. We all have them, it's something we deal with daily. Some more often than others, but they are there. Some may bite their nails constantly, some may swear every other word, others might just have some kind of bodily function that just doesn't work properly.

But you know what? Who cares? I'm one of those people who can see past flaws in others and won't judge them because of it. I won't not  introduce myself to someone if they are biting their nails. Yeah, biting nails is gross, but hey, people do it. We live with it.

Then there are the people out there who think they are too good for everyone else. The people who think they are perfect, want nothing but perfection and won't settle for anything else. The kind of people who WILL judge other people and be all, "Ew, gross". Well, hate to burst their bubbles, but those people SUCK. They are probably the people who, at the end of the day, think things are going great, but in reality it's not.

People have flaws. It's life. Some people can change or work on their flaws, but in the end they will still have a flaw. And we should still love those people. Take my mother for example... she was raised Southern style. So with some of the words she says, she adds the letter 'R'. For example: WaRsh, which would be 'wash' to the rest of us. We laugh and have a good time with it, but she can't help it. Just like a person who is lactose intolerant... they can't help it when things shift and well, you get my drift. You gotta go, you gotta go is what I always say.

I take my leave now and will step off of my soap box for now. Until I find something else to rant about or something that I must talk about. There is something, but this is going on long enough.

Peace.
