Today I am walking around with an extremely bad attitude. I am convinced that no one likes me and to be honest at the moment I am not fond of anyone, and to be even more honest there are a few walking around out there that if given the chance I'm pretty sure I would have no remorse if I punched them. Can I talk about some of the things that have set me off?
1. A person posted a picture of her son with a dead deer. Apparently the child had achieved some sort of rite of passage by killing a furry woodland creature. Don't get me wrong. I understand hunting as a sport but the only way I truly approve of it is if the hunter then understands that this creature gave it's life to you human are you going to respect it or are you going to waste it? i.e. did this young man use the carcass for something or was it just I'm gonna go kill something cue Beavis and Butthead laugh. Don't get me wrong I have a friend whose husband and son hunt and they are a wealth of recipes of how to use said meat. I personally am not of the hunting breed, that is why God created Kroger, for my people.
2. Hateful political comments made in an election year. The two people are human. They are not supermen. They are not God's. They can not fix us. America has become a mess because of greed and selfishness and it would do us all good to stop wondering what's in it for us and change our thinking therefore to what can we do to make America great again. I hate the feeling I get about people that I know are voting opposite from me. I don't understand how on earth they could not see what I see. Oh, and if you are voting off of what you are seeing on television or what you have heard from your friends....well, you are one of the people walking around that I wouldn't mind punching.
3. Why is it that the sound bytes that get played over and over and over are those of stupid people? You might hear something inspirational or life changing but typically you have to go looking for it. Now, the idiot that says something derogatory or inflammatory? Oh, the press will be all over that. Anything that gets us mad or at odds with one another? Oh, that will be aired on every radio, television and print media out there. I don't know about you but there are enough injustices in every day life that make me mad. I don't need to have anything negative reiterated.
4. Horns. I don't like them. I understand their importance but they are misused a lot of the time. Just remember that if you are placing yourself in your vehicle you will be utilizing roads that are going to contain more than just yourself. It is not more important for you to get where you are going than for anyone else out there to get where they are going, and if you are driving distracted get over yourself. It is okay to let people in, it is okay to wait patiently and it is most beneficial to remember that there will be a time when you mess up we all do it. Remember mercy and grace.
I can go on but it would do no good. I am just apparently hormonal and tired. I could use a change of scenery and a few positive comments in my world. I will be glad for the election to be over and I want everyone to remember that no matter who gets into the oval office God is still God. I would also like to say go out there and spread kindness. Even the slightest gesture will do more good than you can ever imagine.
