The people in your life is a DIRECT reflection of what YOU think of YOURSELF .. So look around!! That's who YOU are??.. Switch it UP!!
This quote is SOOOOO true! Got it off twitter (and no I'm not posting my twitter link lol) courtesy of Tyrese, the singer lol.
I can look around @ the people in my life and all of their drama, mistakes, etc...like I say all the time, we all make mistakes, bad decisions, etc...but question is...how do they handle it? Do they take responsibility for it and do what they have to do to rectify it? Or do they sit there and wallow in it?
That quote right there in itself, is enough to make me wanna shrink my inner circle again. I'm finding that my babe, even when we go thru our issues, is still my VERY best friend. Outside of family, nobody really gets me like he does! (well except for my boy Mark, my girl Teresa, and a few others!) There are days where I just don't understand or get people. I recently had one of those days, and I almost blogged about it...but for what? Sometimes you just gotta laugh at ignorance, pray they become enlightened and grow up/mature...and keep it movin!
People, STOP WITH THE MESS ON FB! What was ur life like before Facebook? You didnt' go BLASTING ppl on FB, calling them out their name or being super negative...so act like it! Doing that is cowardly anyways! Some ppl on FB with negative statuses ALL THE TIME (cause I know some of us vent occasionally)...FB is telling us who they REALLY are! U can meet someone in person and then add them as a friend on FB and find out that they are like that...I'm ready to cut some ppl out of my life becuz it's too much MESS for me! I like PEACE, I like chillin with positive people who are ABOUT SOMETHING! It's good to take care of business, but u aint gotta announce it to the whole world! And the people constantly talking about their haters on FB probably just discovered that they have haters...the rest of us been had them, we just don't announce it...why give them any attention? That's stupid..sheesh!
Social Networking DOES have it's perks! I love meeting new people, as I've met quite a few people from church on FB (LOL)...and it has certainly opened doors! I've also made some life long friends on xanga, and we have a WONDERFUL support circle full of EDUCATED folks who are doin somethin with their lives! Though we are miles apart, I am closer to some of them than I am to people right here in my city...sad that I have to look to the internet for a support system, but on the other hand, it means more trips for me, more people for me to meet and see and kick it with! Thank GOD I found some friends outside of this city cause Lord help me, we're not very supportive of each other here. Cleveland seems to be a dream killer. I won't talk about that though. Not today. lol.
On the downside of social networking, a word of advice: PLEASE watch WHO you blast, and what you say! I know its "YOUR" space or "YOUR" profile, but you don't know who people know! It's not even about the drama or gossip, but suppose I know your boss. Or suppose I know of someone who is hiring and you need a job. If I see that skillwise, you would be a good fit, but personality wise, you are ALWAYS doggin somebody on your status or twitter or whatever, then I'm not going to tell you about that opportunity! Call me mean or wrong for that, but who wants to work with a coworker who is always negative, always talkin about somebody else? Sure, we all have our moments of venting, but if you are always like that or always talkin about haters, being immature? Me referring you to a job makes ME look bad...so I'm not going to do that! It's why I would NEVER announce on FB or any other social networking site about a job position that I know about...because MY integrity is on the line. Leave social networking for those purposes-being social and NETWORKING! If someone wants to start drama, please don't join them! Don't bad mouth others...the social networking scene is ALOT smaller than you think. Ever heard of six degrees of separation?
Alright that's enough for today. I'm out!
