Stop Feeling Sorry.

This little thought has just been itching at the back of my mind. I am so sick and tired of hearing how awful some people think their lives are. And I feel so entirely hypocritical saying this, since that is mainly all this blog is filled with; posts about how terrible my life is. And yet, here I am, writing on this computer, in a home, with food in the pantry, clothes in my closet, and I still have the nerve to complain about a lousy breakup, or the stupid glare I sometimes get from my peers. I don't mean to get all churchy on you all, (if there is anyone even reading this,) but I'd like to share my experience in seminary today. Our assignment was to share our favorite scripture, and a story to follow if we wished. An extremely obnoxiously happy girl gets up to share hers, and it's about persevereing to the end and knowing that you have always got God on your side. She then precede to talk about her life in foster care. She was adopted in her early childhood, abused for years, and then placed back into her foster care. I sat there just thinking, here I am, feeling sorry for myself on a daily basis for the stupidest reasons. Like not having a car, or not going to a sale I wanted to go to. It's pathetic, and it's ridiculous. While I am sitting in my desk at school, not taking full advantage of my oppourtunity to have an education, there is a child somewhere else in the world, that can only not afford schooling, but can't even afford to have clothes on his back, shoes on his feet, or even food on the table everyday. I advise you not to take for granted a single luxury you are given, because you never know how quickly in can be ripped right out from under you. Always keep in mind that you will never be given a situation that you cannot handle, and always remember that there is and there WILL ALWAYS BE many many people out there that have a much harder life than you do. And how do I know that, you may ask? Well, if you are lucky enough to have a computer to be reading this, then I guarantee you have a pretty dang good life, regardless of whether or not your trials are barable.

Look around.
Notice your blessings.
And give something to someone else today.

Days Like Today.

I hate days like today. I wake up, feeling good about myself, and I'm ready to take on whatever comes my way. But then you come in contact with ignorant, selfabsorbed ass holes. Excuse my language. But it amazes me how much a single person can turn my day from having the potential to being amazing, to a very, very bad day. I wake up  this morning, ready to go to attendance, and feeling motivated to get my butt in gear before school ends. The day will consist of an assembly, the very first drill practice of the season, and a captain parent meeting after. I was so excited, and certain people just ruin my entire mood. Here I am, trying to congratulate a dear friend of mine, and they don't even have the decency to come up and say hi. And then ANOTHER close friend of mine, stabs me in the back with her dick of a boyfriend. Which shouldn't surprise me, because that is nothing new. Today is one of those days when everything everyone does bugs me. Maybe its just the PMS talking, but seriously. Somethimes I wonder why God put so many retards on this earth.

Enjoy your day.
I'll try to do the same.
