Do not rain on my parade!

I'm a little cranky today so bear with me here. I had my yearly blood work done this morning plus extra blood tests so I am tired, weak with a lot of crankiness and attitude having to give so much blood this morning. Diabetes and Anemia suck! Anyway, I'm just frustrated today about negative views on someones success. I am never one to tear someone down because they make more money then me, or have a bigger house, nicer car, and so on. When I see someone doing what they feel is right for their families security and future I appreciate them and wish them the best. It's so easy to fall in line with being jealous or being envious. How ever you want to look at it of course, it's not fair someone who works hard doesn't get recognition where as someone who seems to not work as hard gets everything. How fair is that you ask? It's not and that's life. It's your right to say whatever you want. No one is stopping you for putting your two cents worth in because apparently it helped you feel better in the moment. Appreciate what you have in your own life and if you think your life stinks then change it. Make choices for yourself to better your situation then hurting someone else because it's the popular thing to do. How would you feel if you were so proud you accomplished something and then strangers are telling you what a loser you are? It doesn't feel good so why would you do it to someone else? It's just funny to me reading some comments in the blogshere where adults are saying they don't hate but are concerned and are expressing their feelings on something. Well yes you are expressing your feelings and that's great but what you are saying in your expression with words sounds a lot like hate to me. What is bitching about someones character anything BUT being hateful? Would you allow your own children to treat people like this? So why is it alright as a grown adult to make someone you don't even know feel less of themselves? Is it because you can sleep at night with a clear conscience knowing you helped try to stop the evils in the world by trying to harm and hurt someones family because you disagree with the choices they made? How would you feel if a mod of angry strangers stalked you because of something you believe and then wanted to rip you apart because they JUST didn't like you? You are no better than the person you disagree with. I am all for having a voice and using whatever means to express it BUT expressing in a positive way. Try and Help to get things done and be a true advocate then being one when it just fits your own agenda. Sure you don't like something then try your hardest to fix it then bitch and moan how unfair it is. That my friend, is not being an advocate and more of someone who feels sorry for themselves. Do half of these people know what the word means to be an advocate? Sometimes I wonder. It's great to talk to people and hear what they have to say and maybe they may say something you haven't thought about. It gets you thinking and learning which I think are two good things to do. I would rather talk to someone who has a level head then someone who is talking all crazy. Most of these people who talk all hateful and crazy I just want to give them a hug. They must be lacking some love in their lives. I don't want anyone to stop having a voice or feel like they can't express themselves though blogging or whatever they feel they need to do. I'm just frustrated some people can't do it constructively so change can happen. To affect change you need people to listen so why would you think you will reach people when all you do is bitch and complain about the situation? Someone on the outside will not take you seriously. I am done today and I'm going to go and enjoy my day and my children. Take care, Peace!
