Life Hype: I AM Somebody!

I may be your average person and no, I don't have any fancy titles behind my name (aka Director, Publisher, Actress, CEO, Media Manager, Editor, etc.) nor am I a twitter celebrity or superstar of any sorts (ie @alyssa_milano, @GuyKawasaki, @AdventureGirl) or a twitter er who hob knobs, snobs or kisses up.  I am just simply me!  I may say, do, post or tweet  just as good or even great things or interesting things as the stars do.  Then again, sometimes I may not, but they're not always great either.  Know what the only difference is?  You worship them, you idol them, you praise them, you adore them, you make them shine like stars.  Just remember, no matter what you do, what you don't do, think or don't think of me, know this, I AM somebody too! 

I happen to be a very deep, sensitive, caring, emotional and humane person and wear my heart on my sleeve more often times than I should. And unfortunately, often times that means my feelings get hurt easily. And yes, someone hurt my feelings.  I won't forget, but I always forgive and move on.  So I definitely don't have tolerance for the self-absorbed, selfish, vain, rude and self-centered people in this world. Always remember the very popular and true sayings, "You Reap What You Sow"  and "What Goes Around, Comes Around"!  And if you haven't learned this yet, then you better be a fast and quick learner.  No matter what someones title is or is not, what someone has or may not have...we are all equal and deserve to be treated that way.  Simply put, it's called RESPECT.  And remember me, I AM Somebody!

I'm not concerned with your liking or disliking me . . . All I ask is that you respect me as a human being. ~ Jackie Robinson

Today, I have a Life Gripe...

People who always seem to want to find trouble, cause trouble or be in the middle of some sort of trouble - So what gives? What’s the deal? What is the problem? Is it that they’re bored, lonely or jealousy perhaps. From my personal experiences it’s always come from the latter. Jealousy. It just amazes me how some human beings can do such silly minded, yet malicious things just because they want to. I just don’t understand why people have to cause trouble, especially when there is no harm being done, only good. I try, hard as it may, to drown out the negativity and hurtful things that other people do and say, especially when personally involves me. I try to keep my thoughts in a good place and a smile on my face, so as to not follow down the same path of those who are jealous and malicious towards others or myself. And although it's taken some time, and I'm still learning, I have come to realize I can't control the actions nor integrity of others. I must admit, I can never fully accept or understand those types of people. Obviously they have deeper issues they need to deal with.  I feel sorry for them because they have to live with themselves and that in itself makes for a tortured soul.  My only wish is for them to get help and find peace for and within themselves

My quote for today’s gripe is:

“The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves.” ~William Penn, Some Fruits of Solitude, 1693
