Just
some ranting going on here. Nothing too special.
I wanted to address some things
that were going on and I had taken notice in. Please refrain from the
following:
1)
Bragging- Do you really feel the need to brag
about your accomplishments? Why must you have to tell people about your feats?
People already know, or should know, how great of a (insert occupation here)
you are. No need to try to “sell” people like your cheap uncle sells cars. My
momma always said, “Let your walking do the talking.” “Lead by example.” “Actions
speak louder than words.” And… any other cliché you can think of.
2)
Stealing- I had to pay for a t-shirt (for a
sporting event or occasion of some sort), and guess what happened? Someone
stole my t-shirt? Nah. Worse. Someone stole the $5 I was planning on giving the
coordinator of the event for my expected t-shirt. It is pretty lowlife and
trashy of someone to steal… let alone $5. I have never stolen and don’t plan on
it in my life time, but, if I was going to break my moral boundaries, I would steal
A LOT bigger dollar than a Lincoln. A Benjamin maybe? If you have to steal for
$5… just ask. You must really be in need of it, so I will be willing to give it
to you! Just don’t take what is not yours!
3)
Cheating- Yes, this can go with stealing to some
extent. You are taking what is not yours. Like answers on a test or homework.
You didn’t find the time to do it, so now you are cheating someone out of their
work, effort, AND time. Why should you have the easy way out of this? They didn’t
take it, and you should have either. No one should get a free pass in this
life. NO ONE! Tests are designed to analyze your brain and where you are
intellectually. No need to have the exact same answers as someone else who is sitting
right BESIDE YOU! Not obvious to the teacher or anything. #commonsense
4)
Being fake- I’m really surprised this doesn’t
have a name for it in the form of a gerund. (How you like that Mizzay? ;) It
should be called “tooling” or “two facing!” No! I got it… “tweekin’!” Whatever it
is called you should not do it. People have a hard enough time being nice to
EVERYONE, trying to get friends, without you turning around and calling them
out. It’s not what Jesus would want us to do, is it?
I’m sure I haven’t even skimmed the top of my
list on what bugs me more than these four that I have listed, but I might
return to it in the near future. Stay tuned for more of these… COMING YOUR WAY!
